In this podcast episode, the panel explores the evolving landscape of crypto fundraising, moving from airdrops to community pre-sales, highlighted by the success of Kobe's Echo platform. They discuss the pros and cons of each method, noting that airdrops can be easily manipulated and often provide delayed rewards, while pre-sales foster greater community participation and deliver faster returns. The conversation also touches on Google's Willow quantum chip, with the panel agreeing that, despite its impressive capabilities, any real threat to existing crypto systems is still years away. Lastly, they critically assess the contentious DeSci field, particularly the tokenization of low-quality research projects that raises significant concerns.
