Wallets are where the value is, where users transact, and where we can link intent and action. So why is everyone sleeping on Web3 wallets?

Following a 'charmed' panel performance at Zebu Live, Mo and I reconnect to take you through the opportunities and challenges of engaging customers through Web3 wallets, and what's possible for brand and chains today

In this show we cover:

- Mo's diverse history in Web2 and what brought him to Web3

- The current state of Web3 wallets and wallet UX

- How 'easy' it is to track and target Web3 wallet users

- Opportunities and implications for brands and marketeers

- Privacy considerations for on-chain data trails

Many complain about the state of usability and user experience (UX) in Web3, and how it's hindering widespread adoption. But Michael argues, we've already solved these issues TODAY...

Sequence has a fascinating history, from early days of Web3 Gaming to a modern, EVM-compatible, multi-chain dApp toolkit which is making life easier for builders and users alike. This is a story you need to hear.

In this show we cover:

- The fascinating Sequence origin story

- Current state of the Ethereum and EVM ecosystem

- What people mean by 'improving Web3 UX' (and how Sequence solves this)

- Interoperability (making cross ETH, L2 and non-ETH chain transactions easy and secure)

- What more is required for wider adoption of Web3 and decentralised apps

The institutions are coming! And they're currently driving the next wave of investment and growth in Web3.

But what are they looking for in 2025, and how has the go-to-market offering changed for VCs as the industry matures?

Mathias and CV VC have been one of the leading institutions driving forward Web3 adoption, first in Crypto Valley and today across the globe. From partnerships in the UAE, reach into LatAm and AsPac. The model today, as with Web3, is truly global.

But it's not just capital that the CV team bring to the table. The business model has evolved a LOT since 2018, as has the competition, as TradFi, Exchanges and even wealthy OGs look to muscle in on traditional VC turf.

On this show, Mathias will take us through: - The origins of CV VC and CV Labs - What's changed over the years in terms of thesis and offerings - What has the 2025 'Institutional Wave' brought from his viewpoint - What more is needed from VCs to support wider Web3 growth - A look forward to CV Summit in Zurich, Sept 23-24th

People with crypto are ready to pay. This is a call to action for businesses from the travel industry to real estate, from Forex to iGaming. There are 600 Million+ people holding cryptocurrency of some kind, and with EU crypto regulation MiCA comes fully into force, the Genius Bill and stable coin sentiment escalating in the USA; it’s only a matter of time before crypto payments become mainstream.
And the good news is, there’s already a solution for businesses: a ‘one button click’ style crypto payments feature today.
I’m joined by Max Krupyshev, leader of CryptoProcessing by CoinsPaid - crypto payment gateway, which helps businesses plug into the global crypto economy: fast, secure, and friction-free. He believes that if you think crypto payments are still a thing of the future, you’re already behind, crypto users are no longer so niche.
In this show we cover:
- How many people with crypto are ready to pay and for what
- What paying with crypto looks like for merchants
- How IRL businesses really accept crypto - and why they do it
- Merchant use cases: what they ask, what they fear, what makes them stay
- How to address security, fraud, and fiat conversion
- Any question you may have about payments, crypto or CryptoProcessing by CoinsPaid

Cosmos has contributed a LOT to the Web3 space, and is going through a significant revival. It's time to dig deeper into this OG Blockchain ecosystem that has contributed so much to interoperability and cross-chain apps.
If you're in Web3, you've probably heard of Cosmos. You've probably heard of Osmosis, and if you're vaguely technical you've probably heard of IBC (Inter-Blockchain Communication protocol). But that's not where the story ends.
The Cosmos ecosystem is smart, vibrant and determined. However, for many reasons (which we'll cover on this show) Cosmos hasn't received the recognition or escape velocity it perhaps deserves.
On this LinkedIn Live, we meet Crypto Cito, one of the strongest and longest-serving advocates for the Cosmos ecosystem, so who better to give us the story of what was and what will be...
In this show we cover:
- Cosmos 101 (The tech and why it matters)
- Cosmos 201 (The ecosystem and evolution of the community)
- Use cases, builders and apps you should know
- The roadmap - where next for Cosmos

Animoca Brands are one of the few groups in Web3 that have successfully moved and pivoted with the evolution of Web3. And we're going to learn what it takes to read and succeed in such a tumultuous industry...

Yat Siu is one of the busiest, most travelled leaders in Web3. Through deep engagement with founders, investors and innovators all around the world, Yat can filter out what will succeed vs. what is just Crypto Fluff...

On this podcast we cover:

- The current Animoca Brands investment thesis

- Why certain portfolio companies have succeeded of failed

Looking for the 'killer app' for Blockchain? Payments much just be it! And Concordium have a master plan for mass adoption...

Bitcoin was the first mass-adopted cryptocurrency, but as 'digital gold', it may not be practical for everyday payments. After all, you don't pay for groceries with your pension, right?...
Stablecoins have shown that digital assets anchored to FIAT currencies have strong potential, and map well to the traditional financial world. So what is holding back more widespread usage.
With Boris, we'll cover the potential of 'PayFi' and give you all a basic understanding of the tech, the vision, and the challenges ahead, including:
- An introduction to Concordium
- The importance of Stablecoins for Web3 adoption
- The importance of privacy, compliance and the role of ZK technology
- Important use cases or projects in the Concordium ecosystem
- What more is needed for wider adoption of 'PayFi'

Dr. Weijia Zhang is a renowned expert on interoperability, bridges, and is the Regional Head of China for the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance. So he knows a thing or two about what it takes to bring Web3 into production.
Interoperability was supposed to be the great accelerator (ahead of privacy tech) for Web3 to really scale and connect apps and ecosystems for the greater good. But have we achieved this yet? Are bridges the answer, or can we do better?
In this show, we discuss:
- The ideal conditions for use of Blockchain technology
- The current technologies and maturity of 'interoperability'
- Enterprise use cases Dr. Zhang is most excited about
- The role and importance of organisations like EEA and Linux Foundation in driving adoption
- What more is needed to see widespread usage of Blockchain technology

Time to pay attention when one of the world's largest Investment Managers leans into Crypto ETFs, Digital Assets and creates its own VC arm: VanEck Ventures. But what's their current outlook on the market and the technology?
Juan Lopez, an experienced Web3 investor, is General Partner at VanEck Ventures (and formerly of Circle Ventures) and is looking to make 25-35 investments of tickets between $500k to $1M. As such, he has to understand the current industry requirements, investment narratives, and be able to sort the quality projects from the hype...

He's also looking at the intersection between Fintech and AI to better observe how Blockchain and Digital Assets can offer transformation in TradFi and 'traditional' industries.
On this show we cover:
- Juan’s background and experience in Blockchain and Digital Assets
- The VanEck story, and their involvement in Web3
- VanEck Ventures - the investment thesis, where they have invested to-date, and what else they are looking to invest in
- How traditional financial institutions are looking at Digital Assets today (e.g. Bitcoin, Blockchains, Stablecoins)
- What more is needed to see widespread adoption of Digital Assets and Web3 technology

Why aren't a billion people using Blockchains and Crypto everyday? We explore use cases, particularly payments, with Isha from Celo - an Ethereum L2 focused on 'real world adoption'...
You wouldn't pay for coffee with your pension... So assuming that Bitcoin (cited by many as a 'digital gold') doesn't fit for everyday usage, what else can we use to get the benefits of Blockchain technology?

Celo has been focusing on this particular problem since inception, and in this episode we're going to zoom in specifically on:
- Why Ethereum needs L2s
- The mission and vision of Celo to drive 'real world' adoption
- Use cases that are gaining traction today: In Africa and beyond
- Whether Blockchain is a good 'fit' for everyday payments
- And what more is needed to see wider adoption
