Show notes
Alexis Ohanian is the Co-Founder of Reddit, as well as the Founder of venture capital firm SevenSevenSix. As a builder-turned-technology entrepreneur, Alexis is focused on making the world a better place through novel projects and initiatives like Coinbase, Axie Infinity, Opensea, and Riverside (which we used to record this episode!) We explore how Alexis would rebuild Reddit for Web3, and how many emergent behaviors in the early days of Reddit and the internet are surfacing again—this time, on steroids with crypto-enabled communities. Alexis is concerned with empowering the good parts about internet culture, doubling down on the importance of community and culture. Tune in for sage advice on investment insights and investor cheat codes—where are the next opportunities? Wherever they are, Alexis is sure to be found there. ------ 📣 ZERION | Trade Across 7 Networks and 500+ protocols https://bankless.cc/Zerion ------ 🚀 SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER: https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/ 🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST: http://podcast.banklesshq.com/ ------ BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: 👀 POLYGON | LAYER 2 DEFI https://bankless.cc/Polygon ❎ ACROSS | BRIDGE TO LAYER 2 https://bankless.cc/Across 🦊 METAMASK | THE CRYPTO WALLET https://bankless.cc/metamask 💳 LEDGER | THE CRYPTO LIFE CARD https://bankless.cc/Ledger 🧙♂️ ALCHEMIX | SELF REPAYING LOANS https://bankless.cc/Alchemix 🦄 UNISWAP | DECENTRALIZED FUNDING https://bankless.cc/UniGrants ------ Topics Covered: 0:00 Intro 6:00 Alexis Ohanian is Having Fun 8:57 Getting Into Crypto 16:40 Reddit and Web3 24:52 Emergent Behaviors 34:00 Rebuilding a Web3 Reddit 39:38 Internet Reputation 45:00 Permissionless Web3 53:52 What’s on the Horizon? 1:00:26 Seven Seven Six 1:04:10 The Case for Optimism 1:07:24 Closing & Disclaimers ------ Resources: Alexis on Twitter https://twitter.com/alexisohanian?s=20&t=YFn8AnfCSkaWdAxctt9QXw SevenSevenSix https://twitter.com/sevensevensix?s=20&t=YFn8AnfCSkaWdAxctt9QXw Alexis’ Art https://opensea.io/assets/0xb6329bd2741c4e5e91e26c4e653db643e74b2b19/696 ----- Not financial or tax advice.
