On the Season 2 debut of Lost Cultures: Living Legacies , we travel to Bermuda, an Atlantic island whose history spans centuries and continents. Once uninhabited, Bermuda became a vital stop in transatlantic trade, a maritime stronghold, and a cultural crossroads shaped by African, European, Caribbean, and Native American influences. Guests Dr. Kristy Warren and Dr. Edward Harris trace its transformation from an uninhabited island to a strategic outpost shaped by shipwrecks, colonization, the transatlantic slave trade, and the rise and fall of empires. Plus, former Director of Tourism Gary Phillips shares the story of the Gombey tradition, a vibrant performance art rooted in resistance, migration, and cultural fusion. Together, they reveal how Bermuda’s layered past continues to shape its people, culture, and identity today.

In this episode, I meet with Francesca. A digital nomad lady with founder and community-building experience. She's take us on very cool journey, from founding her own project to leading the EU market for a privacy-focused Web3 project, zkPass. Join us as we discover how her curiosity and commitment have been instrumental in her success in this tech-driven sector.
I like ZK technologies in general, they give us a glimpse of hope for preserving some privacy in the future and zkPass has great potential to become a bridge for private data transfers from web2 to Web3. Francesca will talk about some transformative use cases, like digital IDs and digital residency for travel, and how they may play a significant role in the African Union's ID verification system.
We also touch on the importance of diversity in the tech sector and its ability to tackle complex problems. We both invite you to approach the world of blockchain technology with an open mind and hopefully use-cases we discuss today will help spark your interest.

Web3 Magic - interviews with builders of novel blockchain solutions
What if DJs could remix, monetize, and own music like never before? In this mind-expanding episode, I sit down with Jaime Schwarz — brand strategist, NFT patent holder, and founder of MRKD.dj — to explore how blockchain is redefining music ownership, IP, and co-creation. From remix rights to fan distribution and Keith Shocklee’s role in launching a new creative economy, this episode hits every note. We dive deep into: - Why Web3 needs better ownership models - How MRKD.dj turns DJs into prosumers and remixers - The story behind the first-ever NFT patent - Rethinking the future of digital music, NFTs, and identity Jaime believes blockchain is the missing layer for the IP economy — offering permanence, provenance, and programmable rights at scale. In a world where AI is eating the service economy, he sees IP as the next frontier of value — and music, with its deep-rooted remix culture and licensing complexity, as the ideal first use case. MRKD.dj isn’t just about tracks — it’s about unlocking a future where artists, DJs, and fans co-create, co-own, and get rewarded in real-time. Tune in before their live launch at New York Tech Week on June 6!

Web3 Magic - interviews with builders of novel blockchain solutions
Summary In this conversation with Manos, we speed-introduce WeatherXM - the citizens-run weather network that aims to solve weather prediction problems around the world. We discuss the evolution of their hardware technology, the significant pivot towards integrating cryptocurrency, and the innovative approaches they are taking to enhance weather data collection and distribution. The discussion covers the challenges faced in hardware development, the transition to a new business model, and the future direction of WeatherXM in the context of community impact and technological advancements. Takeaways WeatherXM started as a project among colleagues in a research facility. The initial weather stations were outdated and not suitable for modern needs. In 2018, the team decided to create their own hardware from scratch. They faced challenges in mass production and shifted to modifying existing products. The pivot to integrating cryptocurrency changed their business model significantly. The new weather stations utilize cryptographic proofs for data integrity. Innovations include low-level sensors and multiple communication protocols. The company has expanded its reach to over 80 countries. They aim to support industrial use cases with modular hardware. The focus is on community involvement and providing weather data to underserved areas.

1 "One Human = One Node?" - Humanode's Bold Plan to Fix Crypto Governance for the future of UBI 43:42
In this Web3Magic Builder Spotlight, I talk to Viktor, co-founder of Humanode.io, one of the most radical blockchain experiments out there: a Layer 1 secured not by stake or work, but by proof of biometric uniqueness. Yep, real humans, not capital, run this network. We go deep into: - Why proof-of-stake and proof-of-work are still plutocratic - How Humanode uses facial recognition + confidential computing to verify humanity (without storing your data) - The ethics and tech behind biometric verification - What makes Humanode different from Worldcoin, and why it actually decentralizes the validator layer - How you can run a node from your phone and earn $25/month just for being consistently human - Use cases beyond the chain: civil-resistant airdrops, Discord governance, and DeSci + gaming partnerships coming in hot We also talk distribution, community building, and how Humanode grew a 20+ person team of long-term believers. This is not just another chain. It's a bet on humans as validators of truth—and it might just change the game. Give it a listen, and if you're into Web3 and real-world use cases, subscribe to Web3Magic and share it with your builder friends.

Research suggests that there are only two crypto assets that can protect you from geopolitical risk - Swiss Franc (CHF) and Bitcoin (BTC). Now, you find both onchain for DeFi, thanks to Frankencoin.
