  • What If Genetic Optimization Becomes Impossible?

    The conversation moves into the biotech race most people aren’t watching: China’s 250,000 research monkeys versus roughly 100,000 in the U.S., organ factories, IVG, artificial wombs, and a future where genetic selection could become too powerful to realistically opt out of.Boyang and Amanda Cassatt explore what happens when medicine shifts from doctors to AI, reproduction moves beyond biological age, and technology starts changing not just how long we live, but what it means to create human life.This is where longevity stops looking like wellness—and starts looking like infrastructure, power, and control.Timestamps00:00 Introduction: Longevity Investments and Immortal Dragons04:03 Immortal Dragons: Investing in Radical Life Extension05:01 Organ Replacement and Xenotransplantation06:55 Why Pigs Are the Best Donors for Human Organs08:29 Genetically Modified Pig Kidneys: 300-Day Milestone09:44 Creating Organs Without Animals10:15 3D Bioprinting: The Future of Custom-Made Organs12:03 Why Growing Functional Organs Is So Difficult13:01 The Ethics of Animal Testing in Longevity Research14:22 China vs. the US: Monkey Experiments and Research15:31 Can Animal Experiments Really Replicate Human Conditions?18:28 China's Advances in Cloning Genetically Modified Monkeys19:16 Why China Takes a Different Approach to Animal Testing20:24 The Cost of Progress: Animal Welfare vs. Human Health22:36 Asia vs. the US: Differences in Longevity Markets23:35 Traditional Chinese Medicine and Longevity26:15 The Placebo Effect: Can Belief Improve Health?27:30 Does Traditional Chinese Medicine Actually Work?28:52 Qigong, Energy Healing and Personal Experiences32:17 What Makes Some People More Susceptible to Hypnosis?33:39 Boyang's Longevity Protocol: What Actually Works?35:19 Why Immortal Dragons Focuses on Proven Prescription Drugs35:49 The Drug That Lowers LDL Cholesterol for Six Months39:26 The New Generation of Sleeping Pills41:29 Supplements, Vitamin D and Creatine42:18 Why Trust Big Pharma?

  • He Turned Ohio’s Biggest Paper Mill Into an AI Data Center | Andrew Keys

    Andrew Keys found Ethereum before it launched, when ETH was around 30 cents. Eleven years later, he’s betting on a very different layer of the technology stack: AI infrastructure. 


    In Ohio, a former paper mill is being repurposed for AI compute. Keys says the first transaction represents roughly 10,000 GPUs, while Alignment Engine has disclosed $1.17 billion in four-year AI infrastructure orders. Amanda and Andrew get into why AI agents may need Ethereum to transact, whether open-source models crush proprietary AI economics, why ETH still has a value-capture problem, and whether ETH treasuries justify their costs versus staking-enabled ETFs.

  • Britain Threatened 4chan With £18 Million and Prison. Its Lawyer Sent a Hamster

    “Thanks very much for several dozen pages of legally void correspondence. It will make excellent bedding for my pet hamster.”

    That’s how Preston Byrne, the lawyer representing 4chan, responded to Britain’s internet regulator, Ofcom.


    The dispute began after Ofcom targeted 4chan under the UK’s Online Safety Act. The regulator ultimately imposed £520,000 in additional penalties in March 2026, following an earlier £20,000 fine. Preston says the enforcement correspondence also threatened penalties of up to £18 million and potential imprisonment — against an American internet company with no presence, operations, or infrastructure outside the United States.


    4chan and Kiwi Farms took Ofcom to U.S. federal court. On September 15, 2026, the case was dismissed on sovereign-immunity grounds because the court found it lacked jurisdiction. The ruling did not decide the underlying constitutional dispute over whether Ofcom’s orders could ultimately be enforced against protected activity in the United States.


    In this episode of Endgame, Amanda Cassatt and Preston Byrne unpack what the UK’s Online Safety Act would require platforms like 4chan to change, why U.S. and British free-speech law diverge so sharply, and what happens when a foreign regulator claims authority over an American website.


    They also discuss Brexit and tech regulation, why Preston tells founders to think carefully about where they build AI, crypto, and internet companies, and the GRANITE Act legislation introduced in the U.S. House aimed at limiting the domestic enforcement of foreign censorship orders.


    The bigger question: can an open internet survive when governments around the world increasingly claim jurisdiction over what happens online?

  • Are Humans Being Replaced? The Truth About AI | Malcolm & Simone Collins

    Malcolm and Simone Collins became known as prominent voices in the pronatalist movement. But today, much of their work is focused on a different question: what happens to humans, culture, education, and future generations as artificial intelligence transforms society?


    In this episode of Endgame, Amanda Cassatt sits down with Malcolm and Simone to explore how AI is reshaping internet culture, why they believe the next major culture war is forming around artificial intelligence, and what it means to raise children in a world where machines may outperform humans at increasingly general tasks.


    They discuss how they are preparing their own children for a post-AI economy, why specialization may become more valuable than being a generalist, and whether humans will remain economically necessary as AI agents become more capable.


    The conversation also explores the evolution of internet subcultures, the rise of AI-generated media, effective altruism and “stellar humanism,” genetic technology, pronatalism, demographic decline, and the question at the center of it all: what kind of people and what kind of civilization will thrive in the future?


    Malcolm and Simone also discuss their work with rfab.ai and how they think AI tools can expand individual creative and technological capabilities.

  • Who Wins the 2027 Crypto Bull Market | Santiago R. Santos, Inversion

    Santiago R. Santos of Inversion was investing in DeFi before “DeFi” was even a widely used term. As a former partner at ParaFi and an early investor in projects including Aave, Arbitrum, and Polymarket, he watched Ethereum evolve from an experimental smart contract platform into the foundation of a massive onchain economy. But the growth of crypto has also changed his investment thesis.


    In this episode of Endgame, Amanda Cassatt and Santiago R. Santos examine whether Ethereum can succeed while ETH captures less of the value created on top of it, why he expresses his long-term Ethereum thesis through Robinhood stock, and why he believes crypto is increasingly becoming a distribution race. They also explore what Santiago learned from betting on Western Union over Solana, why adding stablecoins to legacy businesses is harder than it looks, whether AI agents actually need crypto-native money, and how autonomous agents could choose between blockchains without the tribal loyalties humans bring to crypto. Finally, they discuss the evolution of prediction markets, why Santiago believes market integrity matters as platforms like Polymarket grow, and how prediction markets and 24/7 crypto markets could evolve beyond speculation into tools for insurance, hedging, and real-time risk management.

  • The Worst Outcome Is a High IQ Psychopath | Jonathan Anomaly

    What if we could select the optimal genetic traits for our children? In this episode of Endgame, Amanda Cassatt sits down with bioethicist and philosopher Jonathan Anomaly to explore the cutting edge of reproductive biotechnology.

    They dismantle the social and political taboos surrounding genetic curation, tracing everything from the uncomfortable reality of cognitive capacities and human success to the macro ethical implications of advanced embryo selection. Jonathan argues why denying genetic influence is an intellectually dangerous myth and details how decentralized biotechnology will soon allow humanity to shift from being passive victims of natural selection to becoming its active architects. This is a raw, unfiltered conversation about modern inequality, human cognitive potential, and the existential risks of trying to optimize our own species.

  • The Man Who Built the Metaverse Explains Why Meta Failed | Philip Rosedale

    Corporate metaverses failed the moment big tech tried to turn human connection into a closed retail space. In this episode of Endgame, Second Life creator Philip Rosedale joins Amanda Cassatt to explain why corporate giants spent $80 billion and still couldn't build a functional virtual world. Moving far beyond the surface-level hype of Silicon Valley, Philip exposes how algorithmic feeds and centralized interfaces are stripping away genuine human sovereignty, leaving us with a cheap illusion of agency. 


    They dive deep into the high-stakes ethics of emerging technology, explaining why corporate LLMs risk breeding digital demons if we continue to treat artificial entities as enslaved tools for profit rather than digital offspring. Discover why true digital freedom requires localized artificial life and persistent pseudonymity rather than surveillance state biometric scans.

  • Sui's Kostas Chalkias: I Told Them to Freeze the $163 Million

    As chief cryptographer of Sui and Mysten Labs, Kostas Chalkias helped design a blockchain built on more than 100 published cryptography papers and an object-based architecture fast enough to let AI agents chain dozens of transactions into a single intent, without skipping the security research most "fast chains" leave out entirely.


    In this episode of Endgame, Amanda Cassatt sits down with Kostas to break down why validators froze $163 million after the Cetus hack, why post-quantum migration can't wait for a crisis to force it, and why he thinks cryptographers now have exactly one place left to do their best work.

    But the most unexpected part isn't the tech; it's the path. Chalkias was lecturing cryptography at universities in Dubai before spending three years building Facebook's ill-fated Libra project. He walked away from Meta because, in his words, it was too slow for how fast cryptography actually moves. Now he's chief cryptographer at one of the most talked-about L1s in the space.

  • Open Source AI Is How America Loses | Diogo Mónica

    Diogo Mónica co-founded Anchorage Digital, the first federally chartered crypto bank in the US, and now argues for a position most of Silicon Valley won't say out loud: America should be building closed AI, not open source.

    In this episode of Endgame, Amanda Cassatt sits down with Diogo, Co-Founder of Anchorage Digital and General Partner at Haun Ventures, to break down why he thinks open-sourcing AI just hands China a free ride, why he calls AI "the ultimate weapon," and why he considers defending US AI intellectual property "perfectly legitimate."

    They also discuss his board seat at Erebor, Palmer Luckey's new bank for crypto, AI, and defense companies; why stablecoins bridge crypto anarchism and financial regulation; and why he calls building in crypto an act of American patriotism.
