"Evergrande is the train wreck that the financial world and media can’t help but watch."

A week ago, Sahil Bloom dropped a thread on twitter detailing the buildup and consequences of the Evergrande debt crisis. This week, he's coming on State of the Nation to paint a macro picture of global events and their effects on the economy and crypto.

There are so many puzzle pieces in the world at large, and we're trying to get to the bottom of how it all settles. What does this mean for the global economic landscape? How does this line up with another recent China Crypto ban?

Composable digital objects, a network economy, scaling social structures... whatever it is, Nation States aren't ready for the incoming metaversal explosion. Are you?

Vitalik Buterin returns to the Podcast to discuss his recent article 'Moving Beyond Coin Voting Governance.' As always, Vitalik comes with a birds-eye view of high level challenges facing the crypto space with a moral & philosophical slant.

Building sufficiently decentralized governance mechanisms is a hugely challenging endeavor. Tackling elegant solutions to coin voting, we also cover the benefits of running your own node, the metaverse, and an update on the Ethereum narrative.

When Vitalik comes on Bankless, it's time to listen closely.

Bankless Nation, meet Klima DAO, the carbon-backed digital currency and algorithmic climate protocol.

Dionysus, Archimedes, and Oxylos join to discuss bringing environmental incentives to DeFi, using similar mechanics to OlympusDAO and the OHM token. Klima DAO plans to generate on-chain demand for carbon offsets and build a carbon-backed treasury, with the goal of driving up the price of carbon.

Who said crypto was bad for the environment? For Bankless readers, it should come as no surprise that the powers of DeFi can be leveraged to incentivize coordination around public goods.
