The Web3 Quick Bites

Season 3 is here.

Web3 is louder than ever, but clarity is still missing.

In this trailer, we set the tone for Season 4 of Web3 Quick Bites, a season focused on what actually drives growth beyond the buzzwords. Real marketing. Real adoption. Real conversations.

This season features diverse founders, marketers, and builders who’ve shipped, failed, learned, and figured out what works in Web3, alongside solo episodes that break down go-to-market strategy, community, incentives, and narratives with honesty and nuance.

If you’re building, marketing, or trying to understand Web3 without the noise, Season 4 is for you.

First episode of the year drops this Thursday.

Most Web3 projects struggle to link marketing spend to on-chain activity. If you're getting likes but no mints or swaps, this episode is for you.

Host Olabisi, breaks down why traditional tools fail, the high cost of bad data, and how to implement a modern Web3 attribution strategy.

Learn to use wallet-based tracking and behavior-based token incentives to measure true ROI and scale the channels that actually drive adoption.

In Web3, you don’t tell your story, your community does. The real question is whether you’re designing incentives that make them want to.

In this solo episode, I break down why most projects get incentives wrong (think mercenary users, airdrop farmers, and short-lived hype) and what it takes to design systems that actually stick. From Ethereum’s early days to Reddit’s Collectible Avatars, I explore real-world examples where incentives went beyond money, tapping into identity, status, and belonging.

If you’re a founder or marketer, this is your blueprint for rethinking incentive design and creating narratives your community will spread without being bribed to.

What happens when you bet on Bitcoin in 2010 and AI before it was trendy? You get our guest - a builder who's been quietly crushing it in tech for 15 years while the rest of us were still figuring things out.

This week's guest, Frank Speiser predicted Brexit and Trump's 2016 win when all the experts got it wrong. He's sold five companies across social media, AI, and crypto. And now? He's building something that turns trading into a game because apparently regular trading wasn't exciting enough.

He shared what it's actually like to build in crypto since day one, why most AI companies are just hype, and how someone spots winning opportunities before everyone else jumps in. No fluff, no buzzwords, just straight talk from someone who's lived through multiple tech booms.

If you've ever wondered what separates the people who see the future from those who just follow trends, this conversation will give you some serious food for thought.Stay updated:

What happens when a 20-year trading veteran who built FX platforms across Asia decides crypto needs fixing?

Our guest, Chris Soriano the CCO and Co-Founder of Bridgeport has seen it all - from the trading floors of traditional finance to the wild west of crypto infrastructure.

He's worked on Bitcoin products at massive FX venues and watched both worlds try to figure each other out. Now he's building the unsexy but critical stuff that lets big institutions actually trade crypto without losing their minds (or money).

This isn't your typical "crypto will change everything" conversation.
