Hollywood Rejected Him. He Got Emmy NOMINATED via Web3 Anyway | David Bianchi (RZR)

They told him no. Hollywood's gates were closed. So David Bianchi – veteran actor and filmmaker – turned to Blockchain, NFTs, and AI. The result? RZR, a sci-fi series funded and distributed entirely outside the studio system, earning a Primetime Emmy nomination and proving a new path is possible. Tired of studios owning your IP like Miramax owned Pulp Fiction? Frustrated by endless approvals killing your vision? Even legends like the Duplass brothers are forced to crowdfund because the old model dismisses valuable work. David Bianchi lived this fight and found a way out. Bianchi joins Thinking on Paper to reveal how emerging tech offers creators unprecedented leverage:🎬 Ditch the Gatekeepers: Hear Bianchi's raw account of why breaking from Hollywood was a necessity, not just a choice 🔑 Web3 Funding & TRUE Ownership: Practical breakdown of using Blockchain & NFTs for film finance, distribution, and actually owning your intellectual property 🤖 AI: Your Production Edge: Discover the specific ways Bianchi used AI (like Midjourney in beta) to slash RZR's visual effects budget and execute his vision. 🚀 Seize FULL Creative Control: Bianchi had final cut on RZR – a power studios rarely grant even to names like Scorsese.

Most Human Wins: Packy McCormick’s Not Boring Strategy for A.I. Survival In 2025

Disruptors and curious minds! Today we unpack Packy McCormick's "Not Boring" newsletter and his Memorandum On Human Strategy. For that pesky A.I world YOU now can't escape.  We think the big question is: Will AI commoditize creativity? And if it can, what can you do to stay ahead, remain relevant and thrive when everyone else loses. Can human ingenuity really stay ahead?  Spoiler: Yes.  How? Move beyond fear. Use AI as a complement, not a competitor. Harness AI creativity, update your inputs. Embrace polymath thinking, and build the "next layer up" in your work. Abstraction.  Is the memorandum a strategy for staying relevant? A call to arms? A punch in the face? All of these? All I know is tech leaders, creators, and innovators who want to future-proof their skills while navigating the challenges of the attention economy need to sit the hell up and pay attention.  And if not for you, do it for your kids. PLUS: In TOP News we look at the $500 billion Stargate project and the UKs 'little in comparison' AI project.  In Hot Buttons we ask: Is humanity one, or infinite.

Bitcoin Rose from the Ashes of Hyper-Complex Financial Tools: Is History Repeating Itself? – DeFi Simplified with Factor-Fi Founder Kurapika

Bitcoin came from the ashes of hyper-complex financial tools that only a few bankers understood. Is history repeating itself? DeFi (Decentralized Finance) might be reshaping the financial world, but it remains complicated. Bitcoin may offer Financial freedom, or at least give you the keys to your own bank, but the innovative solutions offered by blockchain technology and cryptocurrency are not for the light of heart. How long before you have an AI agent looking after your finances? Joined by Kurapika, the founder of Factor-fi, Mark and Jeremy learn how tools like liquidity pools, lending protocols, and smart contracts are - in theory - simplifying access to advanced financial strategies. From Bitcoin’s rise and how you can use DeFi’s to bypass traditional systems and optimize assets through decentralized solutions, todays episode has a steep learning curve. Kurapika explains how Factor bridges the gap between complexity and accessibility, enabling experts and everyday users to benefit from tools like permissionless vaults and yield optimization.

Remember The Metaverse? Will It Change How You listen To Music? With Inder Phull

Disruptors and curious minds... Do you think our virtual worlds are the next phase of entertainment, or a flash in the pan? Do you think music is a continuation of the human spirit and must be listened to in a venue, with other people? What about writing music, creating melody? Can the metaverse offer musicians another way to create? Can blockchain and web3 and AI give the tools to those who aren't musical to create music? In this week's podcast we speak to metaverse musician and visionary Inder Phull to find out. Q̳u̳o̳t̳e̳s̳ ̳F̳r̳o̳m̳ ̳T̳h̳e̳ ̳S̳h̳o̳w̳:̳ “Surely there must be a more dynamic, reactive, interactive experience around music.” “Creating ways for fans to experience music.” “Pokemon go for music. You could explore and discover music.” “Give fans a deeper way to collect and participate in the musical experience.” “Interactivity is pushing the musical experience further.” “How do we let music be free?” “It’s an AI music companion that you can train and make new content with.” “Imagine having a direct relationship with your favourite artist.” “How do we let the user feel like they have expressed themselves? The AI assists you and simplifies that.” “Artists need to have control over their IP.” “Can AI create prompts for the serendipity of creation? For the unknown process?” “The original becomes more valuable. More important.” “True artists see the medium.” TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Welcome Disruptors 1:50 The Jazz Of Physics 2:44 Introducing Inder Phull 3:43 DJing, Production And Jungle 4:58 Helping Brands Access Culture 6:15 PIXELYNX 6:49 Deadmaus 7:53 New Musical Experiences 10:29 Interoperability & Revenue 13:33 The Pixelynx Eco-system 20:59 Co-collaboration Business Model 24:09 Can AI Play Guitar? 28:48 The AI Tech 31:28 How To Convince Labels 33:32 IP 35:04 The Human Element 41:01 Changing Culture 45:52 Closing Thoughts

(Book Club) Quantum Computing, Meet AI: Now Revolutionize Medicine And Solve Climate Change. Quick!

It's Book Club time! Mark and Jeremy tackle quantum computing and AI. Reading between the lines of ⁠Quantum Supremacy⁠, by Michio Kaku, they ask how these two forces will shape everything from medicine to climate science. ⁠Quantum⁠ can handle vast, complex data in a way that makes traditional computers look like monkeys banging typewriters hoping to recreate the works of Shakespeare. Throw AI in the mix, that power becomes adaptive, able to “learn” in ways that would melt a classical computers brain. If it had one. Mark argues that “quantum is the muscle that makes AI much more useful,” while Jeremy describes how it activates the “adjacent possible,” pushing AI into spaces no algorithm has gone before. They cast opinions around like confetti at a wedding. Protein folding to AI-driven weather models, our approach to disease, aging, and climate prediction are all up for debate. But with all that power, ethical questions loom: can we control it, or will it control us?

The conversation starts with the basics: crypto's ability to act as a coordination layer. In essence, we’re talking about using blockchain to manage and structure the activities of autonomous agents in a way that’s both transparent and resilient. Sreeram built the entire vision of EigenLayer with the idea of self-enforcing commitments, which is very applicable to AI. Think of human DAOs making decisions about how AI models operate, providing oversight while keeping everything distributed and not controlled by top down tech companies or worse, governments. This isn’t just about avoiding traditional regulators; it’s about creating a system that’s tailored for the positive widespread usage of AI from the ground up. The big takeaway? There's a short window right now for the crypto community to act. We’re at a point where the intersection of crypto and AI could establish a secure, global infrastructure for tomorrow’s AI. If we capitalize on this “transitory period,” we can ensure that the best AI developments run on crypto rails—embedding ethics, loyalty, and security into models that are only set to get more complex as large AI companies become more and more powerful. Let’s dive into how crypto rails could build a foundation for AI that’s as resilient as it is forward-thinking.

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.

What Is The Next Phase of Onchain Crypto? With Predicate

Welcome to episode 20 of EigenLayer Unlocked. In today's video, we dive into the mechanics behind Predicate, led by Nikhil Raghuveera, and their goal to streamline transaction prerequisites across crypto. This idea of “transaction prerequisites” may sound a bit like a mouthful, but the way we are thinking about it is bringing the crypto onchain UX far closer to that of the internet. Predicate is on a mission to bring onchain transactions up to speed with global compliance and security needs. By focusing on transaction prerequisites— essential conditions that make or break the legitimacy of a transaction—they’re simplifying the way onchain apps can interact with users on the front facing level. So, why EigenLayer? Well, by using EigenLayer, Predicate taps into a decentralized operator network that checks, verifies, and issues signatures without the need for centralized infrastructure or a unique token. This network not only supports prerequisites like risk scoring and collateral validation but also provides the flexibility for applications to customize these checks based on their specific needs. Using cryptoeconomic security allows Predicate to expand the functionality of onchain UX and provide verifiable, unique transaction logic. With crypto’s growing reach into the global economy, Predicate’s work aims to ensure that crypto apps can operate with an easy UX while staying compliant in many cases. Let’s unpack how Predicate uses the power of onchain and offchain data to create a more robust onchain UX. Enjoy.

Building Ethereum's Connectivity Hub with Polymer Labs

We're live again from the studio from Singapore for EigenLayer Unlocked, this time for episode 19 with Peter Kim. For this episode, we are tackling the fragmentation problem head on with the story of Polymer and their north star of building an onchain experience where different execution environments communicate securely, transparently, and in a way users don’t even need to think about. As you know, we've been pushing the concept of chain abstraction as a key pillar to move into the internet-like UX era of crypto. Polymer and Peter share this vision as their love for IBC is inspired by the neutrality and accessibility of TCP/IP. Peter explained how Polymer’s vision goes beyond the typical token bridges that we see today to creating a connectivity hub as an L2 using EigenDA. We’ll explore what makes Polymer’s approach different, from their core focus on interoperability standards to their integration with EigenDA for secure, cost-effective state proofing, why they see so many parallels to the internet era and how they’re applying those lessons to Web3 today.
