Or has the protocol given away too much for too long? They dive into: Whether the gas limit increase changes everything What went wrong with Ethereum’s economics and solo staking politics Max’s view on “the single most important” change Ethereum needs to make How ETH could claw back value from layer 2s What Max would do if he ran Ethereum Whether this pivot is too little, too late

Why Twenty One Capital Is More About Volatility Than Bitcoin
The race for Bitcoin supremacy just got more complicated. Twenty One Capital, backed by Tether, SoftBank, and Cantor Fitzgerald, plans to stack as much BTC as it possibly can. But is this new venture really about Bitcoin … or about creating a hyper-volatile stock to play market cycles? This week on Unchained, Jeff Park of Bitwise and Mark Palmer of Benchmark join to discuss: Why SoftBank and Tether are a “perfect match”—and why they turned to Bitcoin How volatility, not bitcoin itself, might be the real asset investors are buying What Cantor’s involvement says about Wall Street’s readiness for crypto Why the launch timing matters Whether Twenty One could repeat MicroStrategy’s mistakes Whether these new Bitcoin vehicles are better bets than spot bitcoin or ETFs Plus, is SoftBank getting into crypto a top signal? 👀

Utsav Mamoria recently wrote How to Live an Intellectually Rich Life (https://utsavmamoria.substack.com/p/h...) on his Substack, Tumse Na Ho Paayega. It blew up, breaking out of containment in India and spanning the globe to the tune of 1,100 likes at the time of recording. For good reason: Utsav combines philosophy, mathematics, biographies, personal experience, and hand-drawn sketches to create a map – quite literally – for living an intellectually rich life. He takes us on a journey through Moradoom, Igamor, and Evermore, before arriving at Luminspere, the Mountains of Knowledge. His one sentence takeaway: Consistency trumps everything. I loved reading the essay, and was pleasantly surprised to enjoy our conversation even more.

How to Break Through the Noise: Get More Views, Engagement & Reach
This is a recording from "The Secrets to Content Discoverability and Virality" panel that was hosted at Onchain Creator Summit, presented by CryptoSapiens with support from Unlock Protocol, Own The Doge, The Creators during ETHDenver 2025 This panel brings leaders from the web3 space to provide insight for creators looking provide visibility and engagement for their content using Web3 tools. Speakers include: - Russ: CVO, Proof of Vibes - Naomi Metzger: Professional Athlete - Smoke: CEO, Own the Doge - Chris Eberle: CEO, SparkHouse The discussion focused on virality onchain, content creation, and the power of decentralized platforms in building creator-driven communities. Key Takeaways: Creating Viral Content Onchain— - Make content that is worth collecting, treating collectors as early supporters of a creator’s journey. Memes, Virality, and Community Activation— - Memes must be viral to remain relevant and that community-driven storytelling fuels their longevity. Lessons from Traditional Social Media— - Virality principles haven't changed—authenticity, consistency, and audience engagement remain key. - The difference now is creator-owned audiences in Web3, reducing platform dependency and increasing content portability. Cross-Promotion & Audience Engagement— - Adapt content per platform: - Farcaster → personal & community-driven - Instagram → personality-focused - Engage by replying to comments; make the audience feel valued. Collaboration & Growth Strategies— - Engage in deep networking and partnerships to drive virality. - Community-driven amplification (e.g., Farcaster, Base, Clanker) helps creators scale organically. Advice for New Creators— - Don’t fear cringe. Virality often comes from persistence. - Web2 creators are in demand—brands need content, so reaching out can open opportunities. - Consistency isn’t just about posting daily—it's about maintaining a recognizable style and personality. Underrated Niches in Onchain Content— - Comedy is underrepresented but could be a strong onboarding tool. - Innovative storytelling formats (e.g., meme-driven narratives) have untapped potential. Final Thoughts— - Keep building. Even if engagement is low initially, one person can change everything. - Own your content, own your audience. Web3 enables true creative independence. The panel ended with a call to action: embrace Web3, experiment, and collaborate to push the boundaries of onchain creativity.
12: Che-Wei Wang & Taylor Levy (CW&T) - Iterating Together with Time
Che-Wei Wang and Taylor Levy are the founders of CW&T, a Brooklyn-based studio creating products that exist somewhere between art, design, and engineering. The husband-and-wife team met at NYU ITP and shares a background across industrial design, architecture, computer science, film, including time at Pratt Institute and MIT. They won the 2022 Cooper Hewitt National Design Award for Product Design. They design and manufacture heirloom-quality everyday objects including clocks, pens, tools, and other strange objects that challenge our relationship with time, attention, and materiality. Their most recognizable products include the Pen Type-A, Pen Type-C (my favorite), Time Since Launch (a one-time-use, 100-year timekeeper), and Solid State Watch, a remix of the classic Casio F-91W. Our conversation explores their fascination with time, their commitment to creating heirloom-quality objects in a disposable world, and how they've built a sustainable creative practice on their own terms. We discuss their prototyping-centered approach, the tension between digital and physical creation, and how they navigate collaboration as both partners in life and work. Throughout, Che-Wei and Taylor reveal a philosophy that treats making as its own reward—they create what fascinates them first, trusting that others will connect with their vision. In a world increasingly dominated by disposable products and digital experiences, CW&T offers a refreshing counterpoint: a workshop where physical objects are thoughtfully conceived, meticulously crafted, and built to accompany us through life's journeys. Their work invites us to reconsider our relationship with the objects we use daily and the passage of time itself, offering a refreshing counterpoint to our increasingly digital, ephemeral world. Timestamps - (00:00): Time: a pattern across CW&T’s careers - (11:21): Time Since Launch: the idea of counting up instead of down, and creating personal epochs - (14:11): "Good design is long-lasting,” Durability of Electric Objects - (19:31): Balancing art, product, and design: CW&T's approach to creating strange (but useful) things - (23:51): First Word vs. Last Word Art: Michael Naimark's essay on innovation - (28:01): Death by consensus: Why Che-Wei left architecture, and the joy of creative collaboration - (32:52): Inspiration, Theory, and Self-Evidence - (38:40): Tools: iPhone world, what makes a great tool, and design that optimizes for joy - (44:21): The Hi-Tec-C pen cartridge and remixing what has come before - (48:01): Making physical objects: a case for prototyping and against rendering - (55:41): CW&T’s beloved products - (53:27): ITP, Electrified Objects, Software in Objects - (56:49): Dream Stem: Generative design, openness to new tools, AI's impact on the creative process, and intuition - (01:07:11): The value of friction, and what's lost and gained in the pursuit of efficiency - (01:09:46): CW&T the brand, contemplating CW&T's legacy and purpose - (01:15:24): Kickstarter, owning your audience, and what it would look like to start today - (01:19:35): Partners in life and work, the tension between merging identities and maintaining individuality - (01:25:02): Growth, explore vs. exploit, and learning, dream collaborators, and more resources - (1:33:56): Lighting round: great teachers, New York City focus & serendipity, creative inspirations, CW&T book, nature and green things, morphology and architecture, “form and force,” a gift for children or grandchildren, what to hang onto, - (01:52:07): Timelessness
