The episode welcomes Carlos Beltran, the creator of MadFi and the Lens-native culture currency, Bonsai.

Throughout our discussion, we dive into his journey as a founder, the highs and lows of building MadFi, and how Bonsai is shaping culture and creativity within the Lens ecosystem.

Carlos also shares his ambitious vision for Lens to reach a billion users and how Bonsai plays a key role in that growth. Finally, we chat about the importance of grants and the need for founders to rethink social from the ground up.

I hope you enjoy our conversation.
