One Big Idea Podcast Episode 2  

Each week I bring on the brightest creators, builders, and thought leaders to explore the intersection of crypto and culture.  In this week's episode, I sit with Sidney Swift, the founder and CEO of web3 entertainment company Defient.   

Previously, Sidney worked within the entertainment and technology industries for over 15 years as a Grammy-nominated, 10x platinum songwriter, producer, and engineer. He has worked alongside artists like Drake, Beyonce, Future, Nicki Minaj, Lil Wayne, Jason Derulo, DJ Khaled, Panic at the Disco!, and more.     In 2017 Sidney started Defient - a web3 agency and NFT incubator - with the purpose of bridging culture and the metaverse together, finding early success with the virtual artist "Chillpill". In 2019 Sidney was granted a US patent for inventing the secondary device synchronization, a technology used in music and tv to layer media experiences. He has worked with countless artists and brands to understand and identify strategies that usher them into the world of web3.

Today we are diving into flawed reputation systems on social media. It is a topic that has again come to the surface as bad actors continually exploit individuals through socially engineered phishing scams.

Coinbase NFT was supposed to bring NFTs to the mainstream.  With a $600M budget and over 2M waitlist applications, it seemed destined to become the marketplace.  Instead, it's a ghost town with less volume all time than its new competitor GameStop did in the first 24 hours of its release.  So why did it fail?

In this week's One Big Idea we explore the shortcomings of Coinbase NFT and how it can find it's way back.
