In this episode, we sit down with Don Tapscott, author of Blockchain Revolution and a leading voice on digital transformation. Don introduces the concept of “identic AI,” a new phase where personal AI agents become part of our identity and must remain self-sovereign to protect human agency. He outlines how we can decentralize the AI stack—from compute and data to models and logic—using blockchain, DPIN networks, and open governance. We also explore the risks of centralized AI, the parallels to past technology cycles, the future of public digital infrastructure, and Don’s vision for universal basic AI as a public good.
In this episode, we speak with Monty Metzger, Founder and CEO of LCX, to explore how blockchain adoption has shifted from hype to real-world utility. The conversation examines the evolution of tokenization, the role of compliance-first infrastructure, and why Cardano’s decentralized governance model stands out among layer-one ecosystems. Metzger also shares insights on institutional demand for tokenized commodities and financial instruments, the Toto Finance platform (formerly Tiamonds), and how blockchain increasingly operates as a foundational layer for global finance and trade.
In this episode, we spoke with Cleo Martins, Finance Product Lead at the Cardano Foundation, to explore the journey behind Reeve — a new blockchain-powered platform designed to bring trust and transparency to financial reporting.

The discussion also highlights upcoming use cases, early auditor reactions, and why blockchain-enabled accountability may soon become the new standard for NGOs, governments, and enterprises alike.
