#235 – An NFT Conversation for Indie Hackers with Hiten Shah and Mubashar Iqbal

I'm finally doing it. I'm doing an episode on cryptocurrencies--specifically, NFTs. I have been a huge skeptic of this space, but a few weeks ago I started looking deeper. I even bought my first NFT. In this episode, I invited two friends, Hiten Shah and Mubashar Iqbal, to talk about what I've realized about this space and what indie hackers can do today to get something out of it. Sign up with Coinbase: https://www.coinbase.com/dashboardFollow Mubs on Twitter: https://twitter.com/mubashariqbalFollow Hiten on Twitter: https://twitter.com/hnshah

Throwback: How to Build a Life You Love by Quitting Everything Else with Lynne Tye of Key Values

(Throwback episode!) After spending years pursuing a career in science, Lynne Tye (@lynnetye) shocked her family and colleagues by dropping out of grad school. Thus began a months-long journey of discovery and experimentation that eventually saw her managing 150 people at a high-profile tech startup. But when Lynne realized the fast-paced startup lifestyle was not for her, she quit that, too, and began her search all over again. In this episode, Lynne shares the story behind how she took her career into her own hands, learned to code, and started a business doing what she loves.Transcript, speaker information, and more: https://www.indiehackers.com/podcast/086-lynne-tye-of-key-values
