In this episode, we speak with Sam Lambert and Theodore Morisis, the founders of Palmyra, a Cardano-based platform bringing transparency and fair access to global commodity markets. They explain how Palmyra helps farmers capture verifiable supply-chain data, meet regulations like EUDR, and connect directly with buyers through its traceability tools, B2B marketplace, and consumer storefront. The discussion also highlights lessons from their Zambian pilot, offline-first design for low-connectivity regions, and why Cardano’s security and reliability provide a strong foundation for mission-critical trade infrastructure.
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.
Explore the intricacies of Cardano's tokenomics with Cardano Foundation CTO Giorgio Zinetti and industry expert Massimo Morini. Together, they explore Cardano's unique token distribution strategy, including mechanics of the reserve, reward pot, and treasury, explaining how each contributes to network resilience. Morini further examines reward distribution, validator incentives, and the importance of parameterization for future decentralized governance. Tune in to discover why Cardano's tokenomics are considered best-in-class.
Join Jeremy Firster and Thomas Mayfield as they discuss Veridian, the Cardano Foundation's innovative digital identity platform. This insightful discussion explores Veridian's future-proof design, including its use of the groundbreaking Key Event Receipt Infrastructure (KERI) and Authentic Chained Data Containers (ACDC) protocols. Learn how the Cardano blockchain acts as a tertiary root of trust, while Veridian's unique pre-rotation key management system and hash-chained key event logs protect against quantum attacks and key compromises.
