S8 E9 | People Before Protocols w/Irina Marinescu (buidlbox)

On our penultimate episode of the season, we’re speaking with Irina Marinescu, co-founder and CEO of buidlbox, a global hub for builders to learn, earn, and connect in web3.Irina is also a mentor at Tachyon and a founder of Women in Crypto, and she previously worked as General Counsel at Gitcoin throughout its disaffiliation process to decentralize Gitcoin Holdings (which later became Supermodular) from GitcoinDAO back in Spring 2022.It was during this transition period that Gitcoin’s bounties and hackathons product, which was originally launched in 2017 by Kevin Owocki, began morphing into what is now buidlbox, and in February 2023 at ETH Denver, buidlbox officially launched. Around that time, Supermodular (previously Gitcoin Holdings) decided to shift its entire focus to supporting the thriving buidlbox platform.In this episode, Irina shares updates on where buidlbox stands today and how it is shaping the future of learning and work, what she learned from the Gitcoin disaffiliation process, both from a legal and an organizational perspective, and how non-technical people can get involved in hackathons and building in the space.We then get into the recent SAB 121 bill that President Biden recently vetoed, why Irina believes the SEC hasn’t exactly been aligned with the crypto ecosystem, and the one thing we need to do more of to help regulators change their minds about crypto. 👜 COLLECT THIS EPISODEhttps://www.rehashweb3.xyz/ 👋 FOLLOW USRehash: https://twitter.com/rehashweb3Diana: https://twitter.com/ddwchenIrina: https://twitter.com/irinamarinescubuidlbox: https://twitter.com/buidlbox 🔗 LINKSStory of buidlbox: https://blog.buidlbox.io/about-buidlbox-our-story-9f7578c50828Permissionless: https://app.buidlbox.io/blockworks/permissionless-iii/signup (free ticket)DM Rachael to host no code hackathon: https://twitter.com/rachaelplzCodeless Hackathon: https://www.covalenthq.com/blog/codeless-conduct-winners-2022/ 🤝 SPONSORS:www.forage.xyz  ⏳ TIMESTAMPS0:00 Intro3:05 How has buidlbox evolved over time?5:50 How does buidlbox help people learn, earn and connect in web3?9:15 How can non-technical people help build in crypto?12:35 What are no-code hackathons?14:22 What does the future of work and learning look like?24:01 Irina’s biggest learnings from Gitcoin disaffiliation process28:00 Biggest legal considerations for decentralized organizations 30:50 Irina’s insights on how the SEC thinks (as a former legal intern)34:03 Irina’s reactions to President Biden’s veto of SAB 12141:50 How becoming a mom has changed Irina’s north star in crypto47:03 Can You Not49:19 Follow Irina and buidlbox DISCLAIMER: The information in this video is the opinion of the speaker(s) only and is for informational purposes only.

S8 E6 | Can Agentic Tech Take Down Surveillance Capitalism? w/Zoe Weinberg (ex/ante)

On this episode of Rehash, we’re speaking with Zoe Weinberg, Founder and Managing Partner at ex/ante, the first venture fund dedicated to agentic tech.We start our conversation by getting a little insight into Zoe’s background, which is quite unique and unusual but also lends itself quite well to the work she’s doing today in privacy and human agency. She shares the ways in which her past humanitarian work in conflict zones and developing nations opened her eyes to issues around surveillance capitalism and how she had her first big realization of how crypto can change individuals’ lives in meaningful ways when she met a group of Bitcoin miners in Iraq during the Mosul conflict when Iraq successfully took back the city of Mosul from the Islamic State.We then dive into some big topics around agentic tech, including user control, consent, privacy, and online (and onchain) data sharing. Zoe envisions a world where humans have full agency over how their information and data are used and we talk about what it might take for us to get there. COLLECT THIS EPISODEhttps://www.rehashweb3.xyz/ FOLLOW USRehash: https://twitter.com/rehashweb3Diana: https://twitter.com/ddwchenZoe: https://twitter.com/zweinberg LINKSThe Age of Surveillance Capitalism: The Fight for a Human Future at the New Frontier of Power by Shoshana Zuboff: https://www.amazon.com/Age-Surveillance-Capitalism-Future-Frontier/dp/1610395697Privacy Party (prev: Block Party): https://www.blockpartyapp.com/#privacyparty/ex/ante Substack: https://buildexante.substack.com/ TIMESTAMPS0:00 Intro2:35 Zoe’s background5:52 When crypto saves lives10:24 How surveillance capitalism has developed over time15:31 State vs corporate surveillance capitalism18:02 Will online privacy regulations improve over time?23:07 What is agentic tech?29:14 What impact can agentic tech have in our lives?34:40 How do user control and consent fit into a public blockchain?36:46 Examples of agentic tech solutions45:14 Ideal end state if agentic tech succeeds48:00 Can You Not49:40 Follow Zoe and ex/ante DISCLAIMER: The information in this video is the opinion of the speaker(s) only and is for informational purposes only.

S8 E1 | Multiparty Ops Onchain w/Jonah Erlich (Den)

On this episode of Rehash, we’re speaking with Jonah Erlich about what a multisignature wallet is, how it’s different from MPC (multiparty computation), best security practices for managing a multisig, and how to be a good multisig signer.Jonah experienced many of the common challenges multisig signers face when he was operating as a core team member of ConstitutionDAO back in late 2022, which is what inspired him to build Den, a tool that helps teams operate more quickly, safely, and effectively onchain through things like human readable descriptions, notifications, recurring transactions, and much more which Jonah shares more about in this episode. We wrap up with a few “can you nots” where we share some of our biggest pet peeves about things multisig signers or people operating in crypto in general like to do, and Jonah overdelivers on his campaign promise to tell an embarrassing childhood story about Diana by telling not one but two embarrassing childhood stories about her. COLLECT THIS EPISODEhttps://www.rehashweb3.xyz/ FOLLOW USRehash: https://twitter.com/rehashweb3Diana: https://twitter.com/ddwchenJonah: https://twitter.com/JierlichDen: https://twitter.com/onchainden TIMESTAMPS0:00 Intro3:10 How Jonah campaigned for his spot on Rehash6:17 What is a multisgnature wallet?10:42 Multisig vs MPC14:40 How to be a good multisig signer and best practices29:55 What is Den?32:44 How Den makes multisig ops easier38:31 How does Den make money?39:38 How does the Den team ship so fast?44:50 What Jonah would improve about the Safe ecosystem47:38 Long term vision for Den49:55 Can You Not54:48 Jonah’s embarrassing story about Diana59:57 Follow Jonah DISCLAIMER: The information in this video is the opinion of the speaker(s) only and is for informational purposes only.
