EPISODE 13: KARAN BEDI & WILDCARD | ft. @defikaran
Karan Bedi, founder of Wildcard, discusses his background and the motivation behind building a crypto-native social network. The app allows users to tip, buy and sell, speculate, and align social incentives through tokens. The goal is to create a positive-sum game where users can support each other and discover content based on tipping and token ownership. The conversation covers topics such as the fragmented ecosystem of Web3 apps, the need for a more integrated and native user experience, the challenge of onboarding new users to Wildcard, the importance of community and culture in the Wild app, and the potential for personalized feedback and communication between card holders and creators.
