EP17_GRACE

Grace Guan is the other (more demure) half of the Unlonely siblings. Grace may be the quieter of the two, but her story is certainly full of rich and loud experience. We speak about how her upbringing — having early exposure to a foreign land in Berlin — shaped who she is today; her time working in fashion, how she fell into tech, specifically working at YouTube. The conversation then flows into the complexities of the creator economy, pressures of content creation, lessons from her MBA, and the founding of Unlonely. I really hope you enjoy listening and watching this conversation as much as I loved hosting it.

How Camp Is Bridging The Gap With Social Data

We're live again from the studio from Singapore for EigenLayer Unlocked, this time for episode 21 with Nirav Murthy about Camp Network. Today’s piece dives into a unique approach to building lasting connections in Web3, using pre-exisiting data from prominent social media platforms. With Camp, we’re looking at a shift from single-transaction incentives to real, ongoing rewards that invite users to share their data, all while staying flexible with user privacy. Camp takes a different path, aiming to let users own and even monetize their online identities by bridging Web2 data with Web3 experiences. For those who’ve seen Web3 apps struggle with retaining users, this could be the key to bringing in and keeping the next wave of on-chain activity. Through their collaboration with EigenDA, Camp's L2 will be highly perfomant and also will be joining the superchain. We touched deeper on personalized data feeds to retention-based models for building better onchain experiences. Camp’s vision is to add depth to onchain user flows – a layer many Web3 applications still lack due to restrictions of blockchains. Let’s get into the details and explore how Camp is paving the way for a more connected, data-rich crypto ecosystem. Enjoy.

Ep.1 - WTF is Hydra?

Summary Welcome to the inaugural episode of the Hydra Podcast Series. Hydra Ventures DAO was summoned to invest in and incubate the next generation of community-first investment DAOs and to proliferate a landscape of organisational innovations in investing. We’re a DAO fund of funds composed of DAO operators, professional service providers, founders, and Web3 VCs with a mission to establish new market-standard practices for how investment DAOs are designed and operated. Join us to learn more about DAOs, investing and the new opportunities that the power of human coordination could unlock. In this episode of the Hydra Ventures Podcast, the hosts delve into the world of community-driven investment DAOs (Decentralised Autonomous Organisations), focusing on Hydra Ventures. The podcast explores its mission, challenges, strategies, and vision in the decentralised investment landscape. The episode begins with an explanation of Hydra Ventures as a "DAO of DAOs" that invests in various investment DAOs. The guests, founders, and key members of Hydra Ventures, discuss its formation and objectives. They highlight the organisation's core mission to iterate on the investment DAO model and create a dedicated capital pool for such ventures. The importance of community in DAOs is emphasised, noting that intrinsic motivation and collective learning drive member participation. The conversation shifts to discussing Hydra's diverse membership and their areas of expertise. The challenges faced by DAOs, such as governance and member engagement, are also addressed, highlighting the strategies Hydra employs to overcome these hurdles. One segment focuses on the relationship between Hydra Ventures and a Web3 Professional Services Agency. It's explained how they provide operational, strategic, and coordination support, essential for the DAO's efficiency and success. The podcast also covers the operational challenges in DAOs, specifically the importance of maintaining context and alignment among members. Hydra's governance approach, including incentive systems to encourage participation and avoid common DAO problems, is discussed in detail. An exploration of Hydra's incubation process for new DAOs is provided. The criteria for selecting communities for DAO formation and the support provided in legal, operational, and cultural aspects are outlined, emphasising the importance of a strong foundational structure for success. In a rapid-fire session, each guest shares their personal experiences in the crypto world, the projects that captivated them, and their perspectives on controversial topics within the crypto community. The episode concludes with a discussion on how to engage with Hydra Ventures and each guest's vision for its success. They express hope that Hydra will validate the community-driven investment model, expand DAO accessibility, and foster an ecosystem where DAOs are seen as a competitive option for collaborative investment and innovation.
