Griff Green and the DAO | Layer Zero
Show notes
Griff Green is a builder and community manager in the Ethereum space. He is also a hippie, a former chemical engineer, and Seattle Supersonics super-fan. A true individual, Griff opted out of society after becoming disillusioned with modern institutions, traveling in a van with gold and silver until he heard about Bitcoin. Falling down the crypto rabbit hole led Griff to become a deep Ethereum community member, eventually launching The DAO. The story of the DAO's beginnings, hack, and eventual hard for are the stuff of Sci-Fi. Filled with countless stories, this episode follows the life and times of a deeply fascinating member of Layer Zero. ------ 🚀 SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER: https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/ 🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST: http://podcast.banklesshq.com/ ------ 📣 DHARMA | Trade on Polygon! https://bankless.cc/dharma ------ BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: 💰 GEMINI | FIAT & CRYPTO EXCHANGE https://bankless.cc/go-gemini 💧LIDO | DECENTRALIZED STAKING https://bankless.cc/Lido 👻 AAVE | LEND & BORROW ASSETS https://bankless.cc/aave 🦄 UNISWAP | DECENTRALIZED FUNDING https://bankless.cc/UniGrants ------ Topics Covered: 0:00 Intro 4:00 Griff Green & the SuperSonics 13:34 Chemical Engineering 18:20 Bankless with Gold 21:51 Bitcoin & Traveling 29:44 Into the Crypto World 35:07 Crypto Masters Degree 38:00 Ethereum Arrives 44:43 Entering the Community 51:29 Culture vs Price 56:00 Early Ethereum Culture 1:02:43 The DAO 1:07:20 Coming up with the DAO 1:13:25 Exploits 1:16:46 The DAO Token Creation 1:23:20 Explosion & Speculation 1:27:29 The Hack & Hard Fork 1:36:00 Dark DAO and Ethereum Classic 1:40:12 Hard Fork & Edge Cases 1:46:58 Lessons Learned 1:49:24 The Next 4 Years & Giveth 2:02:10 Closing ------ Resources: Griff on Twitter: https://twitter.com/thegrifft?s=20 Giveth: https://giveth.io/ ----- Not financial or tax advice.
