In this episode, we discuss how Merlin Chain aims to make Bitcoin fun again. We interview Jeff about why we need a Bitcoin L2 (or sidechain) like Merlin, how they grew it to nearly $3B in liquidity deposited since launching in Feb 2024, and how to get started as a user.

I no longer have any doubt about the relevance of the new internet, and I believe that the future of digital art, socials, and creativity will be onchain. I feel lucky to be at the forefront of this ecosystem. Bullish on us maxi! 🙃
🛠️🛜 Here are a few things that kept me busy from January 2024 to now:
• Co-curated the digital art section at TOKYOSAI in Paris;
• Co-curated TEXTSCAPE, an ASCII art exhibition on ZORA with my project partner Vienna;
• Co-authored an opinion paper about Technostalgia in WIRED Japan;
• Led the editorial growth at Gallery {Labs}, a crypto-based network and Web3 social layer for curators and collectors;
• Collaborated with the team at Proof of X for the ‘Decoding PFP Culture’ exhibition in Shibuya;
• Provided support on social marketing at Y__D (Yoshirotten) & Shinsei Galverse;
• Been published in “ON NFTs,” the very first art history book about NFTs by Robert Alice and TASCHEN;
• Co-hosted the first “The Curator’s Dinner” in Paris, a yummy decentralized gathering sponsored by ZORA;
• Been interviewed by Fisheye Immersive (online), discussing Technostalgia and Web3 curation;
• Started writing editorials (mostly about onchain culture) for Lens Protocol, with some of my content showcased at afk Berlin/ETH Berlin, and at Lens Night Out in Tokyo;
• Been published in the first physical issue of Fisheye Immersive;
• Worked on projects under my Web3 anonymity; 👻
• Slurped lots of ramen (mostly 坦々麺), claimed airdrops, and collected many NFTs and Pokemon cards.
Let’s keep building! : )
Here are a few of the creative minds I have collaborated with recently and wanted to give a s/o to Vienna, Mike, MP, Paris, Kaito, Christina, Cree, Nori, Jack, Devin, Zak + all the artists, creators, and builders I worked with. Thank you so much; you guys make this space super lit. 🧠
Also, the broader teams at Gallery, Lens, Galverse, and Zora — 🥹
