- Marketing, Storytelling, and Investing Hot Takes w/Jon Wu | S8 E4
On this episode of Rehash, we’re speaking with Jon Wu about marketing and investing in crypto.
Last season you heard from Jon’s other half, Maggie Love, from SheFi in S7 E9 about onboarding women into crypto, and now we have the opportunity to speak with the other half of this dynamic duo and power couple, Jon.
Jon recently became an early stage investor after a decade of building in crypto and in tech more broadly, and in our conversation today he shares lots of great insights on what he believes to be the most effective marketing strategies in crypto, how he comes up with his unpopular beliefs and hot takes, and where he believes the crypto space currently stands from an investor perspective.
Whether you agree with all of his takes or not, you’ll definitely learn something new and walk away with not only some new perspectives but also tangible action steps you can take to help you formulate your own perspectives.

- DN-404 with BONSAI by @lens/bonsai #Tape
https://tape.xyz/watch/0x02142f-0x22
- DN-404 with BONSAI
Welcome to this brief explanatory video about the DN-404 functionality of BONSAI.
(00:00:00 - Welcome)
(00:00:08 - What is DN-404? )
(00:00:48 - Example)
(00:02:08 - Outro)
---
So what exactly is DN-404?
It represents an experimental feature where an ERC20-Token-Contract and an ERC-721-NFT Contract are interconnected. This allows for seamless interaction between the two. In the case of BONSAI, 100,000 $BONSAI Tokens are equivalent to 1 NFT.
This means that once you have more than 100,000 BONSAI Tokens in your wallet, you automatically also have 1 NFT in your wallet. If your balance drops below 100,000, you lose the NFT. If you wish to transfer 100,000 BONSAI Tokens, you could simply transfer the NFT instead.
---
Example:
1. Markus possesses 490,000 BONSAI, therefore also 4 NFTs.
2. Nate holds 2,800 BONSAI, so he owns 0 NFT.
3. Markus transfers 40,000 BONSAI to Nate. Markus now has 450,000 BONSAI and still owns 4 NFTs, while Nate has 42,800 BONSAI but still 0 NFTs.
4. Markus then transfers an additional 70,000 BONSAI to Nate. Markus is left with 380,000 BONSAI and 3 NFTs, whereas Nate now has 112,800 BONSAI and 1 NFT.
5. Markus decides to transfer 1 NFT to Nate. Post-transfer, Markus has 280,000 BONSAI and 2 NFTs, while Nate has now 212,800 BONSAI and therefore also 2 NFTs.
6. Carlos shows up with zero BONSAI. Markus gifts him 125,000 BONSAI, and Nate sends 2 NFTs.
7. Following these transactions, Markus has 155,000 BONSAI and 1 NFT. Nate is left with 12,800 BONSAI and no NFTs. Carlos now enjoys 325,000 BONSAI and 3 NFTs.

- Building, Investing, and Finding Ikigai in Crypto w/13yearoldvc | S7 E4 by @lens/rehash #Tape
https://tape.xyz/watch/0x0ace-0x96
- Building, Investing, and Finding Ikigai in Crypto w/13yearoldvc | S7 E4
On this episode of Rehash, we’re speaking with 13yearoldvc, Ecosystem Lead at Eigenlayer, about how she studied 50 projects a day to identify trends as a VC, why she now enjoys building more than investing, and what it is about Eigenlayer that she believes makes it a really special one of a kind project.
“If you can’t explain it to a 10 year old in 2 minutes or less, don’t own it.” -Peter Lynch
Few people in web3 are very good at explaining crypto and blockchain concepts in a way that’s easy for mainstream consumers to understand (myself included), but 13yearoldvc is different. She came into this episode loaded with analogies that make complex topics like staking and data availability and seemingly complex projects like Eigenlayer easily understandable to a 10 year old.
On a more personal note, she shares how she found her ikigai with her work at Eigenlayer now and her best advice for others to find their ikigai. She also shares her best advice for others who want to succeed as a VC or as a builder in web3 or both.

- Bitcoin ETFs and Avoiding Scams w/Birb | S7 E2
On this episode of Rehash, we’re speaking with Birb aka Chairman Birb Bernanke aka bonecondor on Twitter all about the new Bitcoin ETF and best security practices in crypto.
Birb started her career in TradFi and was a product manager for a number of years before joining OtterSec, a blockchain security audits company. We start out by talking about the Bitcoin ETF, and Birb patiently answers a lot of my very basic questions, like what is an ETF and how is it different from index funds, before we move into more interesting questions like is this a good move for the crypto industry overall and what does this tell us about how the SEC will be treating crypto companies in 2024.
After we figure out what a Bitcoin ETF is, we get into a discussion about security best practices for DeFi protocols and other companies building onchain. Birb shares her best pieces of advice for organizations and for end users to avoid scams and hacks and gives us an inside look into what really goes on behind the scenes of some of these hacks.

- 📍Antananarivo, Madagascar 🇲🇬
Now officially welcoming you to Madagascar and starting to share stories, as much as my internet connection allows.
Madagascar has long been on my wishlist. It's the 4th largest island in the world and, on the flip side, the 4th poorest country. We reached the capital of Madagascar, Antananarivo, from Budapest via Paris, with AirFrance (the round-trip ticket cost around €750). The rainy season has just begun, lasting until April, but here I am on the 7th day, and not a drop. Everything is cheaper now because there are no tourists.
The flight from Paris took about 11 hours, and we arrived in Tana (a nickname for Antananarivo) late at night. Money exchange at the airport goes smoothly (the currency is Malagasy Ariary, and you get around 4500 ariary for 1 €), as well as buying a SIM card (20 GB for less than €20, not bad). The first night, we stayed in a hotel 500 m from the airport. We contemplated walking, but it's nighttime, and despite having a robust Bosnian companion, we won't risk it and take a taxi.
English is not widely spoken. The official languages are Malagasy and French. Malagasy is also the language spoken by the people of Madagascar. Salama, veloma, misotra... Hello, goodbye, thank you in Malagasy.
The next morning, we head to the center of Tana, towards the new hotel we saw half an hour earlier on Booking.com. A misunderstanding with the taxi driver, we end up in front of a completely different hotel that we end up liking more, so we stay there (Grand Urban Hotel, a recommendation 👌🏽).
Despite expectations of feeling unsafe in such a poor country, the atmosphere during the day is entirely different. So many smiles, like nowhere else. People in Madagascar are very kind! A market, a few sights, and in the evening, a fancy restaurant recommended by a Frenchman we met at the hotel who chose to retire to Madagascar...
The temperature is pleasant, up to 25 degrees Celsius during the day because Tana is located at about 1300 meters above sea level (it cools down nicely in the evening, so we didn't feel the need to take off our jackets when we got off the plane).
A very relaxed day and a good introduction to what lies ahead. We have 3 days of driving (you read that right, three) to the location we are most excited about. Because roads in Madagascar... #tobecontinued 🌞🏍️💃🏽
