  <description>&lt;hr&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This episode of the #citizenweb3 podcast features Tommy Eastman from foundry&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Tommy Eastman advocates for permissionless innovation in technology and decentralization, navigating the frontier of emerging tech while emphasizing long-term vision amidst volatility. He champions OpenAI as a guiding principle and urges discernment between genuine utility and vaporware in the evolving landscape.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Foundry, a subsidiary of Digital Currency Group (DCG), empowers institutional miners, staking customers, and blockchain entrepreneurs with the essential tools to construct tomorrow's decentralized infrastructure.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;00:00 – 04:44 : Intro &lt;br&gt;
04:44 -- 07:41 : Why web3 and not the valley? &lt;br&gt;
07:41 -- 08:49 : Cryptography&lt;br&gt;
08:49 -- 13:44 : Opinion on Web3&lt;br&gt;
13:44 -- 18:45 : Is there a solution for those priced out?&lt;br&gt;
18:45 -- 24:59 : Solution to decentralize the market.&lt;br&gt;
24:59 -- 30:00 : Spotting an AI project.&lt;br&gt;
30:00 -- 34:26 : The division between AI and decentralized AI?&lt;br&gt;
34:26 -- 38:42 : Interesting models to research&lt;br&gt;
38:42 -- 42:08 : Are we ready for AI?&lt;br&gt;
42:08 -- 46:29 : Why aren't you tribalistic?&lt;br&gt;
46:29 -- 50:13 : Selecting chains &lt;br&gt;
50:13 -- 57:59 : The Blitz&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;hr&gt;

&lt;h5&gt;We spoke to &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/tommyeastman21" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Tommy Eastman&lt;/a&gt;  about &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/foundryservices" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Foundry&lt;/a&gt; and:&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Supply permissionlessly and provide permissionless access&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Tech that's on the frontier&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The fundamentals of crypto are really strong&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Dog chasing its tail&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Decentralization is certainly a spectrum&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Centralization at some scale&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Out of government control&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Smaller players are priced out&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Everybody's priced out&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;OpenAI as the North Star&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Quadratic voting&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Less is more.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Trust nothing&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Federated learning exists in Web2&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Decentralized AI&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Everything inherently has bias&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;People being innately good&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What is the token price today? What is the token price tomorrow?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Expanding your scope to the long term&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assessing vaporware versus utility is really important&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Symbiotic relationship&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
