Brian not shaking Jason's hand just set the stage for one of the best things I've watch this month.

This talk shouldve, been two hours. Could listen to this man talk.
It's interesting how the tone of this Interview was more him having to be on the "defensive" vs the other Interviews simply just sharing insight and knowledge...
I love what Brian is saying!
Brian really didn't shake JCal's hand. LMAO

But why??
Brian is so based! I love it! We need more CEO/founders like him that are willing to speak up.
I am an absolute FANBOY of Brian Armstrong 💪
I watch these to learn something new and am never disappointed. Thank you for an interesting discussion!
All-In just pumps out amazing content. Everyone of these interviews from the Summit have been fantastic.
I am so happy seeing this upload, Brian’s interview was the one I hoped you guys would put on your channel. Thanks!!

Great interview again. Smart guy. But JC is also right - all crypto is intrinsically worthless hence crypto platforms are at best pyramid schemes at worst scams.
WE LOVE YOU BRIAN! KEEP PUSHING!
I loved Brian's responses to David's questions

good podcast. Brian is a good guy too
he speaks about DeFi and regulation so well, he should def lead more of the crypto/ blockchain tech PR effort
Thanks for this guest!

6:53 Brian is on point saying that politicians can’t go around the constitution to create enforcement de facto.
Thank you guys for posting all of these! Still waiting and looking forward to the Grimes/Weiss Panel! :)
Brian is great!
Sacks asks pointed relevant questions. Good interview
That intro song fires me up Every. Fucking. Time.
An enlightening talk and much learning to take away for novices.
Brian is great. Thanks for this interview!
Great chat. Perfect person on a perfect place. Keep it going Brian.
Thank you
Such a great talk. Thanks Brain.
Class act job from Mr. Armstrong. Gary Gensler is regulatory corruption at its absolute worst; he needs to be stopped.
Brian is awesome!
Did he just not shake Jason’s hand?!
Good that Jason ask questions about the other side so we have a balance conversation! Even so I prefer Sask hehe.
love that guy
Great guest
Brian killed it
Wgy we only had 27 minutes , love you guys
Yeesh Jason is tough to listen to
WTF this guy is amazing
based
Chamath is spot on at 19:45 anyone on crypto twitter would attest
There’s so many interesting points Brian was about to develop but JCal interrupted with another question… it’s very frustrating 😢
Interviewer cut Brian off right when he was explaining future use case Perhaps nothing is more significant than future use case

the irony is that he was just about to explain the panacea to "GPT is getting used for misinformation" psyop. websites are cryptographically signed (SSL), blogs (on crypto platforms) also have a form of versioning. it's pretty trivial to register an ENS domain and automatically start publishing any content one feels like without the ambiguity of AI somehow being involved.

Brian is a legend. Crypto is the future wether you get it or not…Chainlink Ccip is connecting with worlds largest banks right now
Brian's point around cheap and fast L2's is actually solved by an L1, Solana. Also, the practical point by Chamath at 18:30 is also who their CEO Toly is. Super practical, trying to get this to 1B people.

agree, solana has the best tech right now. tokenomics are not great, and sol token price took an absolute beating after FTX, but the tech is the best.

And ironically all the guys are also early investors in Solana and sold at highs.
Brian missed one of the main use cases of Crypto which is tokenising real world assets - Larry Fink has spoken a lot about this. Blockchains such as Algorand, Hedera HBAR and NEAR protocol are all doing this; allowing users to purchase tokenised real world assets such as properties, gold, silver; even plane tickets.
These guys really skimmed the surface here! I’d Love to see your team have Charles Hoskinson on. Long form.
Assumption: They're advertising for the companies they hold equity.
Totally agree that the accredited investor laws need to change. I've been locked out of some great deals that have returned incredible ROI's because i'm not accredited. It's insane
Less regulation...aka don't look at how much we are fing up our clients trust.
whish i could just listen to the audio
No one is talking about Layer 0 (energy). It’s so important for AI Safety and Blockchains.

financial ROI is based on speculative confidence, not the efficient consumption of joules. we'll get there, but you have to disintermediate the MEV-before-public culture.
This should have been longer😒

Shillana is not decentralized at all tho
That's great. Focus on helping humanity be freer. Get rid of middlemen
Brian is correct I believe people should learn the blockchain in depth and you will understand why he is fighting so hard. I’m pro Coinbase his business is one of the best way to keep peoples money decentralized.
Fed really likes their monopoly on counterfeiting
Jason please 🙏🏻 shut your yap and let him finish his responses!
chamath criticized that same essay when it came out 🤣
Brian Armstrong is a superhero.
Verus IDs are perfect case for decentralized IDs..
Jason such a hater
I always wondered why Cathie woods invested with him, say no more ❤️.
Early into this interview but loving Jason’s journalistic/interview approach.
One of the most important conversations!
Brian is the man. Jason clearly lost money on shitcoins

He’s playing devils advocate as he should. While you lamos are cheerleading Brian and crypto like some schoolgirls.
Jason, you did a really good job here. I know some will be mad, but I thought you played devil's advocate very well here and I know it pained you to do so. It shows you are able to take both side of an argument.
Why does Jason cut everyone off mid sentence? Dude is the worst

Jason and Brian not shaking hands 🤔
Gaming. It’s 14:24 and I wish Brian would have stood up and said gaming and dropped the mic. Total DAU of all blockchain is 4 million. One game. CSGO 1 million Concurrent players. And what is the revenue engine of gaming? Jpegs: skins, pretty pixels. We are about to see a Cambrian explosion of UGC. How do we provide a creator economy based on digital assets and experiences? Hmmm. How does one ensure true ownership, provenance and enable scarcity of a digital item? Hmmmmm Why Bitcoin is capped at 21 million. With blockchain a creator could offer a 1/1 Or design a “sand painting” digital experience that disappears after the user leaves the experience.
Where's Peter Theil?!
Love Brian, hate JCal.
nice one boys
What’s with the pron music intro 😂
Chainlink's Sergey would have nalied all those questions and more talking about CCIP..Anons do yall know whats coming?

I'm good with that!
Friedberg's face when hearing about the crypto use-cases sums up my thoughts.

It’s ok to not have an open and expansive mind. Soon people like you will be replaced by autonomous agents. At least they can be prompted into creative thought. You want a use case? Wait till you see what happens when we get to WaifuGPT meta. With the amount of obsession and value we will see when people can design their “companion” agent’s embodied AR/VR avatar and tune their own agent you will see how much the market cares about true ownership of a digital assets. You will begin to see marriages ruined and people demanding to marry their WaifuGPTs….and then understand (like gamers) that people don’t want to be account bound. The horror of not being able to log on and “see” their WaifuGPT will be so strong they will demand the true ownership of digital assets that blockchain provides.

How much did the guy on the left get paid off to play Devils Advocate
Vote election on blockchain. Every citizen that has the right to vote. Votes. Gives the country its proper leader???? Warren from Boston is afraid. Makes sense
Brian's performance was quite poor during this interview. David Sacks was insightful.
Brian should collab with Elon
That felt like 2h long video
Some parts of the interview are annoying. They ask questions and don't wait for an answer. Wish they would be a bit more professional.
@Jason, "You never learn anything while talking!". Let Brian speak and don't interrupt pushing your narratives. It was important that he describes the use cases of crypto and future narratives i.e. and also many other things. Super bad interview from Jason side, much to improve there.
Jason’s attitude towards Brian was so much more combative than any other guest. The other three did well.
Crypto still has the trust less backbone that makes it what it is. Brian will try and change this for less friction but then where is the line between crypto or normal traceable currency. There is a reason the founder for bitcoin is unknown m
25:26 the cringe smug of jason lmao
Brian starting the convo talking about regulatory capture is rich
Under 1 cent and under 1 second transactions..... Solana solves this.
