Kieren James-Lubin, CEO of BlockApps and the Co-Chair Technical Steering Community for the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance. I’ve known Kieren since the early days of the Ethereum project, and I wanted to get his perspective on the state of the blockchain and Web3 ecosystem. I note at the top of the episode that I approached the topics openly rather than skeptically, acknowledging that while consumer adoption may have slowed down, crypto as an asset class is here to stay. With Bitcoin and Ethereum prices remaining resilient and enterprise adoption continuing, Kieren lends his expert perspective on recent crypto, blockchain, and Web3 developments. This timely discussion covers improvements in sustainability and energy efficiency, NFT potential, shifts in institutional adoption, regulatory challenges, data and social platform decentralization, and the intersection of AI and blockchain.
