The Net Society crew returns for a wide-ranging conversation on the state of crypto, AI, and digital culture. They explore the installation phase of crypto, the role of blockchain in gaming, and whether asset ownership is the real unlock. The conversation shifts to Worldcoin’s user growth and the broader question of identity in an AI-driven world, before zooming out to examine how Web2 giants like Meta and OpenAI could reshape crypto’s future. They close by debating the post-iPhone landscape, new interaction models, and the promise of AI as the next layer of infrastructure.
