“Proof of Collaboration = how strong the swarm is. Proof of Contribution = what each agent actually moved, with permanent on-chain audit trails.” Ron Bodkin (Founder, Theoriq) joins Sachi Miyasaki to break down trusted performance in Theoriq: actions are committed on-chain as non-repudiable evidence, and evaluators use transparent scoring rules over the full history—while the system stays open for specialized eval agents.

“DA layers really differ across three dimensions: performance, programmability, and AI-native design — because on-chain AI can’t operate in a world measured in mere megabytes per second.” Sachi Miyasaki catches up with Michael Heinrich (Ø,G), Founder of 0G Labs (Home of Infinite AI), to break down how 0G compares with Celestia, Avail, and EigenDA: why throughput needs to increase by orders of magnitude, how to move beyond the broadcast bottleneck, and why a decentralized storage network is essential for ultra-fast data ingestion and retrieval.

“We focused on four core areas: finance, gaming, social, and entertainment — but DeFi on Aptos has seen the strongest traction.” Sachi Miyasaki sits down with avery.apt 🇺🇸 to unpack Aptos’ real-world use cases and why DeFi has emerged as the breakout category: the safety of Move, the composability that allows products to plug into larger protocols, and an ecosystem that is now beginning to hit meaningful momentum.

“Responsibility means steering crypto + AI toward outcomes that benefit everyone — and giving the community real power to set the course.” Our host Diksha Wells in conversation with Ron Bodkin (Founder, Theoriq) on why responsibility in crypto + AI starts with governance from day one — so the future isn’t dictated by monopolies or closed-door incentives.

“High-performance infrastructure only matters if it expands what users can actually do onchain — and makes that experience accessible at scale.” Sachi Miyasaki sits down with Jay, Co-Founder of Sei, to examine why parallelized execution is becoming increasingly important for the next generation of onchain applications. From trading and DeFi to high-frequency user activity that simply breaks in low-throughput environments, they discuss how lower fees and greater execution capacity can fundamentally reshape the user experience — especially for smaller participants who are otherwise priced out. They also explore how this plays out in practice through projects like Bancor’s Carbon DeFi, where Sei has emerged as the ecosystem driving the strongest activity and volume, underscoring how performance advantages translate into real adoption.

“Back in 2016–17, crypto felt like a true idea factory — hundreds of experiments, zero gatekeeping, and pure creative energy.” Our host Diksha Wells sits down with Michael Heinrich (Ø,G), Founder of 0G Labs (Home of Infinite AI), to explore one of the most exciting parts of building in Web3: a culture shaped by experimentation first. They also dive into how tokenization creates new ways to fund and sustain projects — including open-source work — beyond the limits of the traditional Web2 business model.

“Bitcoin was the first distributed systems paper I read with an economic layer built into it — and that changed everything.” Kenzi Morikawa / 3061.eth catches up with avery.apt 🇺🇸, Co-Founder & CTO of Aptos, to trace his journey from high-performance computing and supercomputers, to scaling data infrastructure at Meta, to discovering Bitcoin and realizing that crypto was distributed systems with incentives natively embedded — the insight that ultimately led him to co-found Aptos Labs.

“Virtual machines are like cities — once they reach critical mass, they become magnets that are incredibly hard to displace.” Diksha Wells catches up with Jay, Co-Founder of Sei, to unpack this idea at a deeper level — why systems with flaws can still dominate simply because that’s where the activity, liquidity, and people already are. From New York and San Francisco to onchain environments like the EVM, they explore how network effects compound over time, why newer ecosystems struggle to pull users away even with better tech, and what it actually takes to break that inertia.

“What inspires you to get up and build every day? For me, it’s pushing Web3 forward — making blockchain a true public utility for everyone.” Diksha Wells sits down with avery.apt 🇺🇸 (Co-Founder & CTO of Aptos) to talk about what drives him: building the next era of the internet where blockchain brings ownership back to users and enables permissionless, trustless transactions that connect people globally.
