161. TBR - How to Build Bitcoin Metaverse | Bitmap Exploding | Using Msquared MML | MScribe

We spend some time in Msquared testing metaverse environment called The Construct to see for ourselves what the developers are testing out in there with MML. While we were inside that virtual world we got to witness a developer building and deploying his creations in real-time and configuring its size right in front of us. We then discuss the continued progress of the Bitmap ecosystem and predict what has to be developed next in order for the movement not to become another passing fad within the web3 space. We also discuss our next project that will contribute to fulfill some of the market needs within the Bitmap ecosystem. This new platform will be called Mscribed, the first Bitmap-focused Ordinal inscription platform designed for metaverse users on Bitcoin. Topics: First up, we dive into the world of MML and discuss the future of metaverse development Next, Iman and I outline the roadmap for the metaverse Then, we examine BITMAP the protocol for the Metaverse on Bitcoin and Finally, We announce our new project, “MSCRIBE.io” - Find out how we’ll be supporting the Bitmap metaverse.

160. TBR - Toxic Web Culture | SEC Bleeding Crypto | Metaverse on Bitcoin

We talk about the pitfalls of internet culture on society and how it distracts from finding true value. Information is much less reliable and trustworthy than it used to be and its becoming more difficult to process it through platforms like Twitter. What are the solutions to this dilemma and how is it impacting the human psyche? Also, SEC is continuing its aggression toward blockchain and cryptocurrencies, which is resulting in a mass exodus out of the U.S. Many giant organizations like a16z, Coinbase, Kraken, and others have already announced their plans to establish themselves abroad in reaction to these policies. What will this do to America’s status as a hub for innovation? Also, we dive deeper into Bitmap, the newest Ordinal standard being proposed to act as a foundation layer to the metaverse. This is a big deal because never has there been a standard for the metaverse and for it to all exist on the most secure and highest value blockchain in the universe, is a tremendous narrative. Topics: First up, we take a look at misinformation Online Next, we compare a Zombie Apocalypse to Covid Then, Garry Gensler from the SEC is attacking Crypto and Finally, we discover a new standard for the metaverse on Bitcoin called Bitmap Please like and subscribe on your favorite podcasting app!

159. TBR - Apples Metaverse Revival | SEC Attack on Crypto | Where Web3 Goes Next

We discuss the metaverse progress and newfound interest after Apple unveils their new headset. The Vision Pro is one of the most powerful consumer electric devices ever created, and Apple has spent several years developing it. Why is big tech so focused on the metaverse when the pathway to its growth isn’t clear yet. We discuss and react to what was unveiled during WWDC. Also, how is the SEC suing Binance going to affect the web3 space? In our opinion, Binance has likely committed some of the violations they are accused of, but for the SEC to umbrella label so many projects as issuers of securities without establishing any new guidelines for crypto is over stepping. Also, Binance US is not a large institution in the grand scope of crypto, so if there are any actions to freeze volume there it will likely not impact the broader market. Topics: First up, Iman and I react to Apple unveiling its new VR headset Next, We examine the tech behind Apple Vision Pro and how it will revolutionize the future of work Then, we look over how Apple’s VR headset will attract competition to the metaverse and Finally, the SEC attacks Coinbase & Binance, we break down what this means for crypto.

155. TBR - Bitcoin Congestion | BRC20 Hitting a Billion | How to Make the Metaverse Work

We have been deep in the weeds of this Bitcoin Ordinals ecosystem growth for a couple of months, and with the recent phenomena of BRC20 tokens. The interest in this ecosystem is growing exponentially, and we want to find every bit of information about how it works, what effects is it causing on Bitcoin, and how far this could go. The current BRC20 mania is causing serious protocol-level disruptions to the Bitcoin network. How the community decides to react to this dilemma will decide the future for Bitcoin and whether or not it will evolve past just a store of value vehicle. On top of this, how will this have an effect on the metaverse if at all? Why is development for the metaverse so difficult and what methods might possibly be introduced to bring the kind of liquidity the BRC20 space is experiencing to the metaverse sector? Topics: First up, BRC20 total marketcap has exploded! We dissect what happened. Next, Panic is erupting over Bitcoin congestion issues Then, Why BRC20 is actually good for the longevity of Bitcoin and Finally, Will the world be ready for a Ready Player One life style?

154. TBR - Dangers of AI | BRC20 Madness! | Ethereum vs Bitcoin Fungible Ecosystems

We start by discussing a recent conference called consensys and how the industry sentiment is improving especially around the metaverse. Then we go over the details of AI danger and how the godfather of AI who received a Turing award has decided to sound the alarm bells against the dangers of allowing AI development to continue without regulation. What are the actual dangers and how bad will it get? How does web3 solve this potential problem and how long will it take for AI to be as ubiquitously adopted as the Internet ? How does Bittensor fit into this timeline and ultimately, how much value will the TAO network output when in its fully mature state? We then cross into the Bitcoin realm and discuss the continued growth of the Ordinals ecosystem as BRC20 market is accelerating at an exponential pace. How does this compare to the early days of Ethereum, and if the infrastructure is built needed to make BRC20s a viable fungible token standard, how will the two ecosystems compare. Can the BRC20 market one day become a multi-billion dollar industry the way Ethereum ERC20 market has? Topics: First up, People are coming back to the metaverse Next, the godfather of AI is fearing what he created and it's potential for humanity Then, examine BRC20’s future for the market economy and Finally, the potential upside to using AI in Crypto Please like and subscribe on your favorite podcasting app!

153. TBR - The AI Web3 Trifecta | AI Philosophy | $BTC BRC20 Tokens

We have been covering some of the oldest AI projects that have been quietly building over the last several years and have come to the conclusion that Web3 AI poses some of the biggest opportunities in crypto. Projects like Bittensor, Fetch.AI, and Ocean Protocol are laying the foundational pillars needed in order for developers to come into the blockchain space and develop cutting-edge AI apps and tools. We wonder what the world will look like with a mature AI, with blockchain underpinning its existence and functionality, and what will result from an ethics and values perspective for AI entities. Will society regard them as equal members of civilization who deserve recognition in value determination? We then discuss the Bitcoin Ordinals network developing the BRC20 token standard. This is a tremendous opportunity because the overall market cap is less than 30 million dollars, and the smart contract ecosystem is worth more than 300 BILLION! Topics: First up, the doom we’ve been facing for months has finally come Next, we look at how our data will be valuable for the future of web3 AI Then, discuss the possible outcome of consciousness that Auto GPT will enable and Finally, Live BREAKING NEWS on UniSat Market on BRC-20 tokens and Ordinals Please like and subscribe on your favorite podcasting app!
