Swipe technology has changed the way we consume content. Whether flipping through reels on Instagram, the vacuous communist hellhole known as Tik-Tok, or swiping left or right for dates on Tinder, how you swipe determines your choice.  Today we welcome one of the founders of Tinder and Bumble to the show to discuss how those apps have impacted our society, as well as to introduce a new Web3 social app designed to empower users. You are already listening to this show, so swipe right somewhere in the air to keep listening to episode #642 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.   FULL SHOW NOTES: http://badco.in/642 TIME STAMPS 00:00 - Intro 05:00 - Featured Guest: Christopher Gulczynski 06:55 - I remember a site called Hot or Not and people would rank them from 1-10. Was that the inspiration for Tinder?  08:14 - What was the original inspiration? Were you single at the time? How were your relationships impacted at the time?  10:00 - There are certainly critics out there that would say Tinder, Bumble and the apps of that nature have killed romance because people don’t have a chance to meet organically anymore. What do you say to those critics?  11:00 - When you look back at that, had you seen what was coming, would you have done anything differently?  11:35 - There was a certain stigma about meeting people online, at the time of the release of these apps.  14:34 - Joel played Tinder roulette once, but the significant relationships in his life have stemmed from meeting IRL. How has this technology changed how we meet and interact with people? Is romance dead now?  15:20 - Travis has a different experience of the dating apps and more criteria beyond cute, including intellect, humor, etc.  16:28 - Are you intending to be romantic and indicate your romantic feelings through the app? Maybe there are other places for that, like eHarmony.  17:50 - When did you discover the crypto, blockchain, web3 world?  19:15 - Let’s talk about what you’re working on now: Niche.  22:00 - What do I see when I join Niche?  22:40 - How is Niche different from Discord?  23:55 - What do you hope to bring to Niche from your experience with the dating apps that is going to make the platform stand out from the competition?  26:30 - How do I create the Puerto Rico crypto group on Niche? Does it cost me anything or an amount of platform tokens to create my own group?  27:35 - When will the beta be available to begin testing?  28:50 - Is there a way for community owners generate money through this platform?  29:40 - How will a membership fee function since you can’t push/pull crypto payments?  30:50 - Closing remarks SUBSCRIBE, RATE, & REVIEW: iTunes: http://badco.in/itunesSpotify: http://badco.in/spotifyStitcher: http://badco.in/stitcherGoogle Play: http://badco.in/playSoundcloud: http://badco.in/soundcloudYouTube: http://badco.in/youtube FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA: Twitter: @BadCryptoPod - @TheNiftyShow - @JoelComm - @TeeDubyaFacebook:  /BadCrypto - /JoelComm - /teedubyawLinkedIn: /in/joelcomm - /in/teedubyaInstagram: @BadCryptoPodcast DISCLAIMER: Do your own due diligence and research.  Neither Joel Comm, Zach Comm nor Travis Wright are FINANCIAL ADVISORS.
