All right, ladies and gentlemen, welcome back.

We got another high-powered, high-caliber episode here, the Crypto 101 podcast.

I am your co-host, Bryce Paul, joined as always by my trusty compadre, Mr. Brendan

Veman. Brendan, how are you doing today, man? You know, it's hard to be doing bad when the

crypto markets are doing so good. Amen. I am extremely excited. Amanda, we have a really

exciting podcast in store for everyone. So tune in. Turn your phones to silence mode

because you're not going to want to miss this one. Yeah, we want all your attention. Every

last drop of it, we know attention is a very scarce resource these days. But please

give your undivided attention, ladies and gentlemen, at the front of the stage. Neveen,

Agne-Hotri, is joining us today, who is the CEO of Cumberland Labs.

He's building a ton of cool things, notably Trust app, which we want to talk about.

But most importantly, we just want to get to know who Neveen is and why he's here in the space.

So, Neveen, welcome to the Crypto 101 podcast.

Thank you for joining us.

Thank you, guys. I'm so happy to be here. Yeah. No, we love it. We love your energy already from chatting a little bit before the cameras rolling. I know this is going to be a great one.

You know, you're very passionate about what you do. You're passionate about why you're here.

So we want to learn a little bit about your background, even kind of like before crypto. I mean, you know, you were probably around, right?

You know, had your career unfolding in some direction before crypto pulled you off into

another direction. So we want to hear about that, kind of that story, if you will.

Absolutely. So I'm an engineer by training. I am probably older than a lot of your

viewers. I got started in the early 90s doing engineering and then I got sucked into AI,

which actually sucked me into neuroscience. So I did my PhD in computation neuroscience from Columbia.
