Where were the adults? How did SBF manage to get away with so much (thus far)? We brought on Castle Island's Matt Walsh to explain. We're pissed. How are you feeling? Matt gives us a breath of fresh air as he outlines the timeline of the rest of the contagion, how long the healing process will take, what happens next, and how we rebuild this industry we've all come to know and love. ------ Earnifi | Check For Your Unclaimed Airdrops, POAPs, & NFTs https://bankless.cc/earnifi  ------ SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER: https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/?utm_source=banklessshowsyt  ️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST: http://podcast.banklesshq.com/  ------ BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: ️ ARBITRUM | SCALING ETHEREUM https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum  ACROSS | BRIDGE TO LAYER 2 https://bankless.cc/Across  BRAVE | THE BROWSER NATIVE WALLET https://bankless.cc/Brave  LEDGER | NANO HARDWARE WALLETS https://bankless.cc/Ledger  ️FUEL | THE MODULAR EXECUTION LAYER https://bankless.cc/Fuelpod  ------ Timestamps: 0:00 Intro 4:52 We're Pissed 9:52 Alameda Leveraged Data 13:34 Why Did We Accept This? 15:19 Regulators & Regulation? 21:55 Where Did the Money Come From? 24:42 The Human Destruction 26:35 Who Can You Trust? 30:51 What Will Regulators Do? 35:35 Will the Contagion Continue? 38:42 BlockFi 40:44 What Caused This? 45:10 Ego 47:50 What Should We Do Going Forward? 56:26 Who & Where Are the Adults? 58:33 How Long to Heal? 1:02:05 Is the Worst Behind Us? 1:03:55 Closing & Disclaimers ------ Resources: Matt Walsh https://twitter.com/MattWalshInBos  ----- Not financial or tax advice.

✨ DEBRIEF | Unpacking the Episode: https://shows.banklesshq.com/p/debrief-molly-white  After many episodes, we finally brought on a crypto skeptic, Molly White! We brought Molly on to take us out of our crypto bubble, to challenge our assumptions, and to steelman the anti-crypto argument. Molly White is an engineer, public goods contributor, and an extremely articulate crypto critic. She also runs the web3 skeptic website: https://web3isgoinggreat.com/ In today’s episode, Molly gives us her central claim on why web3 isn’t actually going so great, why she thinks tokens make everything worse, and why—despite acknowledging some of the good—Molly believes crypto is a net negative to the world…and probably will be in the near future. P.S. Keep in mind, this episode was recorded on October 7, 2022 — way before any of the FTX meltdown occurred this past week. ------ 📣 Earnifi | Check For Your Unclaimed Airdrops, POAPs, & NFTs https://bankless.cc/earnifi  ------ 🚀 SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER: https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/?utm_source=banklessshowsyt  🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST: http://podcast.banklesshq.com/  ------ BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: ⚖️ ARBITRUM | SCALING ETHEREUM https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum  ❎ ACROSS | BRIDGE TO LAYER 2 https://bankless.cc/Across  🦁 BRAVE | THE BROWSER NATIVE WALLET https://bankless.cc/Brave  🔐 LEDGER | NANO HARDWARE WALLETS https://bankless.cc/Ledger  ⚡️FUEL | THE MODULAR EXECUTION LAYER https://bankless.cc/Fuelpod  ----- Topics Covered 0:00 Intro 7:35 How Great is Web3 Really Going? 8:10 Headline Selection & Website Goals 12:50 Molly is Anti-Crypto 13:36 Crypto’s Promises 15:36 Are We Early? 17:35 Crypto’s Successes 20:23 Crypto’s Biggest Failures 21:50 Banks 26:22 Education Problem 28:10 The Future of Crypto 33:34 What’s Wrong with the Internet? 35:27 The Money Side of Crypto 37:38 Web2 to Web3 42:23 Starry-Eyed Optimism 54:04 Public Goods 1:02:00 Hyperfinancialization 1:05:55 Show Me Fix It 1:08:34 Environmental Impact 1:13:31 Crypto Idealists 1:16:52 Surveillance & Changing Business Models 1:20:40 Wikipedia 1:25:17 Decentralization 1:26:23 Advice For Crypto People 1:27:44 Closing, Resources, & Disclaimers ------ Resources: Molly White https://twitter.com/molly0xFFF  web3 is going just great https://twitter.com/web3isgreat  ----- Not financial or tax advice.
