0:00.0	Hello everyone. Welcome to GenC. GenC is Generation Crypto. These are the people who
0:13.0	are raised on a different philosophy on how they look at money, how they look at identity, how they look
0:16.8	at privacy, how they reimagine their relationships with the communities and companies they interact with. We focus primarily on Web2 and Web3 brands who are building for these
0:25.1	audiences specifically. I'm Sam Yuenberg Coin Desk and our co-host, Avery Eerie, how is it going?
0:32.0	It is a beautiful January day here in New York City. I'm great. I'm really excited for our next
0:36.8	guest and I'm really excited for the momentum that we've been building on this podcast, Sam. I'm great. I'm really excited for our next guest and I'm really excited
0:37.8	for the momentum that we've been building on this podcast, Sam. I know we've done several episodes
0:41.8	now and it's been amazing to hear feedback from some listeners and from guests. So I am excited for

1:07.9	entrepreneur, but like a serial just big thinker.
1:11.3	I just think everything she seems to touch. She gets in early. She thinks about it. She's really conscious of what
1:16.2	she is making instead of just coming out with something. And I'm very excited for us to talk with
1:20.3	her in a bit. But first, a couple things just to bring up, I'm actually, as we speak in Paris,
1:25.8	and I just got off a nine-hour train ride from Davos.
1:29.1	That's it? Only nine hours?
1:30.7	Only nine hours, I know. And we held a bunch of events for Coyn Desk at Davos this year.
1:36.8	There's some amazing partners. And just like we had the conversation about CES, you know, I go to these things and I kind of keep looking for Web3.
