In Episode 36 of Chain Reactions, we sit down with Satvik Sethi, founder of [Offline Protocol](https://offlineprotocol.com/) and one of the most thoughtful builders in the space, to explore a simple but powerful idea: What if crypto actually worked without the internet?

Satvik shares his journey from building a mental health startup, to leading Web3 product at MasterCard, to launching Offline Protocol, a mesh network enabling messaging, payments, and connectivity via Bluetooth, even when there’s no Wi-Fi, cell signal, or data access.
