The Block Runner Crypto Podcast

We break down the state of the Meme economy and make comparisons to what we saw in the 2021 bull cycle. Memes on Solana have strong parallels to the NFT market on Ethereum from last cycle, especially when you compare revenue figures of the top marketplaces like pump.fun [http://pump.fun] to Opensea. We give our thoughts on where we are on the timeline of meme mania and speak about the impacts memes are having on the broader crypto market. This includes methods of launching new projects by leveraging memes as a more user friendly go to market vehicle to onboard community and then adding complexity layers down the road to not off-put sentiment. Also, when it comes to marketing narratives memes seem to be dominating the mind share so we discuss how we are approaching $NAT from a marketing perspective. Now that $NAT is weeks away from officially becoming Bitcoin’s second subsidy reward coin, how we classify this new coin is important for public perception. Some do not see $NAT as a candidate to fit within the existing market demographic of memes and rather see a new narrative formed around the coin that distinguishes it from the meme asset class due to its technical provenance to DMT and the broader mission of supplying Bitcoin miners with additional subsidy to sustain network security. We discuss our thoughts on this and also the liquidity dilemma when it comes to supporting Bitcoin assets. All sectors of the Bitcoin ecosystem are facing this problem and are actively working toward building solutions that can either bring more liquidity to Bitcoin from other chains or port Bitcoin native assets to other chains like Solana to benefit from those capital markets. Topics: 1. First up, break down the state of the Meme economy and make comparisons to what the guys saw in the 2021 bull cycle 2. Next, the guys give their thoughts on where they are on the timeline of meme mania and speak about the impacts memes are having on the broader crypto market. 3. and Finally, discuss the liquidity dilemma when it comes to supporting Bitcoin assets Please like and subscribe on your favorite podcasting app!

We have a deep dive discussion with the founder of MOSS AI about the conceptual emergence of AGI and how this reality intersects with the web3 economy. Landon is building a crypto ecosystem focused on supporting the emergence of blockchain based AGI. The ecosystem has several layers of technical complexity as well as a multi token approach. Landon explains the purpose and utility for each token and how collectively they align all the facets of the ecosystem together to produce productive AI Agents with highly specified and tuned functional purpose. We break down what the ultimate goal is for the MOSS ecosystem and how AGI will impact humanity at scale. Since Landon has an extensive background in the metaverse space we put our minds together to theory-craft multiple scenarios where productive AGI framework like MOSS can help aid in the construction of a sustainable digital economy. We also get into the sustainability of the AI Agents themself since they have cost requirements similarly to how smart contract execution has cost requirements. All together the MOSS economy is designed to give Agents the possibility of producing valuable output in order to maintain their own sustainable pathways to continue their performance and to eventually partake in the digital and physical economy autonomously. Topics: 1. First up, who is Landon Wang, and how did he get into the web3 AI Space 2. Next, What is MOSS AI, how does it work, and will it intersect with the web3 economy in the emerging AGI? 3. and Finally, break down what the ultimate goal is for the MOSS ecosystem and how AGI will impact humanity at scale.

We begin our discussion by detailing our experience over the last month of tussling with the injection of AI into all things relevant to our existence. Not just from what we have been building in context of the crypto space, but also our personal livelihood. We explain how we have built a core thesis around the metaverse over the last 5 years since we began development in Decentraland. Now with AI that core thesis is beginning to shift and our interpretation as to what needs to be built is changing dramatically as a result. We showcase some examples of this while stumbling onto a metaverse builder in the newly deployed Bitmap Emporium world while on the podcast. As we watch this human builder concept a virtual casino on his parcel, we begin to imagine how an agentic economy will form synergies with what already exists. We then envision a reality where AI is producing content so rapidly and at such a low cost that it diminishes the value proposition of the content application layer itself, which we believed held the most value in context of the metaverse economy due to its difficulty to produce by human developers. We then to theory craft what can emerge to supplement this removal of value. Will it be a DMT based commodity layer that embeds intrinsic value into the digital economy of the metaverse that agents and humans can co-operate to harvest and extract? Topics: 1.

We discuss the rapid acceleration of AI technology with Bootoshi, founder of Cypher Genesis and the Bitcoin Boo’s. With Bootoshi’s expert understanding of the AI sector, we explore the depths of use cases for AI integration not only in the crypto sector, but for real world use as well. Bootoshi is leading a movement of AI enthusiasts who are dedicated to improving their personal abilities with AI in order to compete with the impending agentic economy. We discuss how best to leverage AI and assess the role of humanity in context of Agents displacing a lot of human need for economic contribution. 2025 being touted as the year for AI dominance it is important to find an optimal positioning and understanding of how the market will evolve in order to capitalize effectively.

We have a fascinating conversation with the creator of @reality_spiral token $RSP, which is positioned to become a top-tier AI agent infrastructure component. Already, Reality Spiral developers have become the #2 contributors to the Eliza Github. We break down the motivations behind the open source community contributing towards Eliza’s expansion. Also, what components are remaining to build for Agents to have more autonomous controls over their actions? We discuss the ethical ramifications of this and how the human-to-machine interface remains connected in light of the rapid acceleration toward self-sovereignty for AI. We then discuss potential applications for AI swarm technologies in the context of the metaverse and how the concept of “Reality Spiraling” can be utilized for rapid iteration. We explain the non-arbitrary roots of Bitmap and theory craft in real-time with the assistance of AI a use case implementation for swarms building in the metaverse. Topics: 1. First up, what is Reality Spiral, and what does it contribute to the space? 2. Next, break down the motivations behind the open source community contributing towards Eliza’s Github expansion 3. and Finally, discuss potential applications for AI swarm technologies in the context of the metaverse and how the concept of “Reality Spiraling” can be utilized Please like and subscribe on your favorite podcasting app!
