Hi, everyone. Welcome to the A6NZ podcast. I'm Sonal. Today's episode is based on a conversation that I had with A6NC Crypto General Partner Chris Dixon and Brian Armstrong, CEO and co-founder of Coinbase at our annual Innovation Summit. It followed a series of presentations which you don't need to have watched to follow this discussion, but you can find on our YouTube channel if interested that covered everything from early adoption and myths to history and principles to key terms and use cases in crypto. But this

discussion begins with the question of where are we right now and what will it take to realize

the bigger vision for crypto? We also cover everything from company building in an intense environment

to the history and evolution of open source,

to interesting new applications made possible by crypto, and much more.

Thank you, guys.

So I think the burning question

that we are all left with here

is what can we do with crypto right now

from your vantage point, Like today, can people

walk out and do something with this? So it's important to note that I think still 90% of what

people are doing with crypto is investment or speculation. And that's great as an initial way

to get people's interest into crypto. But it's more interesting to think about, you know,

the utility phase, which is this 10%.
