| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to The Breakdown with me, NLW. |
| 0:09.1 | It's a daily podcast on macro, Bitcoin, and the big picture power shifts remaking our world. |
| 0:15.0 | The breakdown is sponsored by nexo.io, near an FtX, and produced and distributed by CoinDesk. |
| 0:22.8 | What's going on, guys? It is Sunday, June 5th, and that means it's time for Long Read Sunday. |
| 0:29.3 | Before we get into that, however, if you are enjoying the breakdown, please go subscribe to it, |
| 0:33.6 | give it a rating, give it a review, or if you want to dig deeper into the conversation, |
| 0:37.9 | come join us on the breakers Discord. You can find a link in the show notes or go to bit.ly slash |

| 1:24.2 | So today we're going to try to bring a little bit of that optimism back into the show |
| 1:28.7 | with our selection for LRS. I'm going to be reading a piece called How Web 3 Changes |
| 1:34.7 | Philanthropy. It's from Reese Lindmark and is about how the crypto generation could rewrite |
| 1:39.9 | the rules of charitable giving. Ten years ago, the rebels hadn't won. There was no Web 3, no non-fundable tokens, no decentralized |
| 1:49.1 | finance, no decentralized autonomous organizations, no Coinbase, no Ethereum, no A16Z crypto. |
