He has certainly played the game as a serial entrepreneur, and he’s learned a lot along the way. Jordan is a thinker and has a deeply philosophical, first-principles approach to existence. Tying together cosmology, ethics, aesthetics, and strategy, he presents salient views on achieving harmony and sovereignty on a civilizational scale. We explore grounded insights about coordination, and Jordan lays the foundation for traversing the design space of Web3 with consciousness and intention. This is a heavy episode, so we’d recommend a handful of listens to let it fully digest! Take the Green Pill, anon. ------ SPONSOR PILLS: ⚖️ ARBITRUM | SCALING ETHEREUM https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum ?

✨ DEBRIEF ✨ | Ryan & David's Unfiltered Thoughts on the Episode: https://shows.banklesshq.com/p/debrief-crypto-wars-20 As the dust settles with Tornado Cash’s sanctioning news and the arrest of Alexey Pertsev, the space is drawing parallels to the early days of crypto, Crypto Wars 1.0. We brought on OG cypherpunk privacy developer and co-founder of Zcash, Zooko to talk about Crypto Wars 2.0. Crypto privacy is being tested in new ways and Zooko couldn’t be in a better place to explain the current complexities. What’s the case for crypto privacy? Why is it such a tough problem to solve? Why is Zooko optimistic about the future of crypto privacy? What are your thoughts on crypto privacy? Let us know in the comments or on Twitter @banklesshq ------ ?
