"Take It To The BANKR" with TN100X & BANKR Founder 0xDeployer | ZEROPOD S2 E13
Welcome back, fearless Ethereum enjoyooors to another episode of ZEROPOD. And this episode is a special one because it is actually the very first podcast appearance by the elusive figure known only as 0xDeployer aka Big Daddy Ham, the creator of so many things but most recently the breakout success Bankr, an in-feed ai agent that can trade for you using natural language on X and Farcaster. Hosts Toady Hawk and JackWyldes dig in with Deployer to hear about his childhood, his crypto journey and the exhaustive lineage of all his projects leading up to Bankr, including The LP, TN100X, Hamchain and more. We learn that he taught himself to code from a book at Barnes & Noble, we hear about how he first bought Ethereum at $80 (and sold it at $90), and we get some exclusive alpha like the fact that he has a secret Bankr cofounder and fancies himself a glamper.

Leading majestic zora horses to the purple water cooler
On this week's episode of MARS (uploaded 5 days late ><), Matthew & Rizzle kick the show off by diving deep into the new Zora Coin update. Matthew delivers a critical review from a digital art perspective focusing on Zora founder Jacob's re-mint of his majestic horse, which was originally released as an NFT on Zora last year. Check out Matthew's cast here: https://warpcast.com/niftytime.eth/0xaf6a6fd2 for more details and Jacob's majestic horse coin here: https://zora.co/coin/base:0xf1fc9580784335b2613c1392a530c1aa2a69ba3d?referrer=0x3a5df03dd1a001d7055284c2c2c147cbbc78d142. After that, Matthew and Rizzle talk about the explosion of engaging frames on the purple app, Warpcast, shouting out Yo! and Farcade frames, amongst others, and their effects on making the WC app more engaging. Before wrapping things up Matthew talks a bit about the divide he's noticed between users who onboarded into crypto on L2s like Base vs folks with more experience on Ethereum mainnet and what that may portend for the future of the crypto ecosystem.

Bits + Bips: Why the Stock Market Wipeout Might Not Achieve What Trump Wanted
The financial market is getting wrecked, inflation is still a problem, and bitcoin isn’t acting like the hedge that it’s supposed to be. Is this a real economic shift, or just noise? With tariffs, stagflation fears, and fiscal dominance taking center stage, hosts James Seyffart, Joe McCann, Ram Ahluwalia and Noelle Acheson break down:

Context S4: The Metropolitan Museum of Art - The Most Visited Museum in America Dives into NFTs
Blake speaks with The Metropolitan Museum of Art team who recently released Art Links, marking The Met’s first foray onto the blockchain. Art Links is a 12-week game that invites you to connect the dots between seeming disparate art works (whether centuries apart, completely different mediums, etc.) according to different themes, rewarding you in the form of NFT badges and IRL prizes. Blake has played religiously every week, and has learned a tonne! 3 of the project leads are here to talk about the game: Destinee Filmore, Assistant Curator in the Department of Modern and Contemporary Art at the Met, Brett Renfer, The Met's Senior Project Manager for Emerging Technologies and Audrey Ou, co-founder and CEO of TRLab. They dive deep into the project, from how long it took to plan and launch, to the intended audience, to why they chose Base, to the art they included. Blake also couldn’t resist asking Destinee about if (and when) the Met will collect their first crypto art works. If you want to get a read on the traditional art world and how they are engaging with NFTs…you can’t really get bigger than this. The Met is the most visited museum in America, and one of the most important cultural institutions in the world.
