https://thebitcoinpodcast.com/episodes/tbp/s02/17-the-argument-for-an-ideal-dao https://thebitcoinpodcast.com/episodes/tbp/s02/17-the-argument-for-an-ideal-dao Most DAOs sound great… until it’s time to make decisions, pay contributors, and ship work consistently. In this episode, we’re designing the ideal DAO and confronting the hard parts: governance that doesn’t stall, incentives that don’t get gamed, treasury systems that protect the community, and a structure that can scale without losing its mission. Tue, 20 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://thebitcoinpodcast.com/episodes/hio/180-zak-cole-on-adversarial-specs-and-ai-powered-product-development https://thebitcoinpodcast.com/episodes/hio/180-zak-cole-on-adversarial-specs-and-ai-powered-product-development Zak Cole has shipped four successful exits in crypto—Whiteblock, Slingshot, Code Arena, and more—and he attributes much of that success to a rigorous specification-driven development process. In this episode, Zak joins us to discuss his journey from Marine Corps cryptographic asset manager to serial Ethereum builder, and introduces Adversarial Specs, an open-source tool that uses multiple AI models to pressure-test product specifications before a single line of code is written. Fri, 16 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://thebitcoinpodcast.com/episodes/tbp/s02/15-interview-fubuloubu https://thebitcoinpodcast.com/episodes/tbp/s02/15-interview-fubuloubu In this episode, Corey and Jessie talk with fubuloubu, founder of ApeWorX and Silverback. We discuss our history in the ecosystem, security, and what developer tooling and automation frameworks bring to the table. We also dive into what role AI plays in the future development of blockchains and automation tooling. Wed, 14 Jan 2026 00:00:00 GMT https://thebitcoinpodcast.com/episodes/tbp/s02/16-do-builders-have-responsibility-beyond-tooling https://thebitcoinpodcast.com/episodes/tbp/s02/16-do-builders-have-responsibility-beyond-tooling Crypto didn’t remove trust — it refactored it. Which means the real question isn’t whether blockchains work… it’s whether the people who build them bear any responsibility for what happens next. In this episode we extend the previous conversation on crypto literacy, privacy UX, and incentive design to tackle a hard question with no clean answers: Do builders have responsibility beyond tooling? We explore the “blacksmith problem,” the myth of neutral systems, and how zero-knowledge, chain analysis, and UX choices shape outcomes — intentionally or not. This is not a price talk episode. It’s about the ethics, incentives, and trade-offs embedded in decentralized infrastructure.

Alisher, a premier designer, spoke to some of why Status has specifically chosen a design framework to appeal to Web3 and build unique and sovereign communities.

He describes Helium Mobile as a cost-effective, community-driven wireless service that enables users to participate in network expansion through blockchain technology, using hotspots to provide additional coverage. Di Dio emphasizes the simplicity of setting up Helium mobile hotspots and the incentives for users who contribute to the network, as well as the challenge of convincing traditional telco providers of the quality and reliability of a decentralized network.
