DAO Talks Podcast with Tim Delhaes

In DAO Talks, I get into the brains of the builders and makers of web3. We explore our multichain future, personal stories and how we are investing, experimenting and failing with startups on tokens and smart contracts.

Our guests of the over 30 episodes include Will Papper (Syndicate), Alex Salnikov (Rarible), Griff Green (TheDAO), Frederic Chesnais (Atari) and Will Ruddick (Grassroots Economics).

So, join me on a journey of discovery, as I chat to leaders, change makers and misfits about tech, life, the universe and everything.

About the Show

Decentralized autonomous organizations, or DAOs, are all the rage. We’re seeing explosive growth in this sector as people experiment with building companies on top of tokens and smart contracts.

Join me on my personal journey of discovery, a series of talks with the Web3 builders about DAOs, Life and everything else.

That, and he thinks that DAOs can be an answer to climate change.
