They begin with the disconnect between crypto prices and onchain growth, weighing durable signals like stablecoins, RWAs, ETH activity, and agent standards against leverage, volatility, and renewed concerns around Zcash. From there, the episode turns into a deeper debate about AI fast takeoff, IPO narratives, model costs, market bubbles, and whether rapid technological progress can still create near-term economic dislocation. The crew then shifts into digital art, asking whether the next wave of creative energy is moving away from traditional NFT markets and into AI-driven artistic production. They close by exploring the coming wealth effects of AI IPOs, the future of philanthropy, the millennial midlife crisis, personalized media, community, and whether AI should be shaped by sovereign wealth funds, taxes, or broader industrial policy.Mentioned in the episodeAI is moving fast https://x.com/AnthropicAI/status/2062568862479208923Third wave of American philanthropy https://nanransohoff.substack.com/p/the-third-wave-of-american-philanthropyGmoney and Hunter Biden? https://x.com/gmoneyNFT/status/2062888418229596409?s=20Show & HostsNet Society: https://x.com/net__societyAaron Wright: https://x.com/awrigh01Chris F: https://x.com/ChrisF_0xDerek Edwards: https://x.com/derekedwsPriyanka Desai: https://x.com/pridesaiProductionProducer/Editor: https://x.com/0xFnkl","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/CC4s2d8mVIQsuiN_U5XIqmdWsznh6Oio3A_cwsaT-8I/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS84ZDBk/Y2Q3ZWU5MjQwZDI5/MmIxYzgxMjM2OGNj/ZjE0Yi5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
