  • 38. Senator Bragg | Will Australia become a crypto hub?

    38. Senator Bragg | Will Australia become a crypto hub?
    May 11 2022
    On this episode of Koji Conversations, Soph chats to Senator Andrew Bragg. Senator Bragg has been the flagship Senator for crypto in Australia. Putting aside mainstream assumptions about crypto as a fad, scam, and or haven for criminals, Senator Bragg has been steadfast in putting the underlying technology front and centre. In this chat, he covers: Australia as a world leader so far The US’ approach and his discussions with Republican Senator Cynthia Lummis An appropriately dynamic and light touch framework that welcomes innovation and protects consumers The need for Labor to come to the table and have a bi-partisan approach The current race for Australian listed ETFs and why we need to ensure Australian companies can provide to Australian consumers The possibilities that blockchain tech and DeFi will unleash a stronger, and more efficient economy. “Australia is a nation of Oligopolies. This technology is our best chance to break some of these down.” Join the conversation for a chat about how appropriate regulation will allow Australians to access competitive financial products with low risk and how this could drastically benefit our economy. JOIN SENATOR BRAGG’S COMMUNITY Andrew’s twitter: @ajamesbragg Site: https://www.andrewbragg.com/ (https://www.andrewbragg.com/) TIME STAMP OF QUESTIONS 0:51 - Take me back to early 2021 when you’re the chair of the Senate Select Committee for Australia as a Technology and Financial Centre and you say to the Government I want to tackle an enquiry on crypto among other things. What did that process look like and why did you want to do it? 2:25 - What did you learn from the committee process and talking to industry and what in your view should be the governments priorities for a dynamic and prosperous approach to crypto policy and regulation? 4:07 - Would you also say its relevant that payments and the approach to regulation of crypto and digital assets needs to remain separate because there are those technological idiosyncrasies surrounding smart contracts, DeFi and this trustless infrastructure that is blockchain? 6:21 - When you had that call with Senator Lummis, can you shed some more light on the US or she as a senator is thinking about Crypto regulation in Wyoming? 8:11 - Recently you have advocated for a specifically enshrined digital services act, what are you laying out there and why do you think it’s important that it could resemble something entirely different? 10:28 - What are the big partisan tussles that are shaping up between the two major parties when it comes to regulation or policy settings for digital assets? 12:04 - What are the biggest road blocks that industry needs to help government solve? or founders of projects need to solve to get this over the line? 18:18 - you just alluded to having a flexible or light touch approach, do you think there’s a world in which this evolves in more of a sandbox spot for 12 -24 months, or if pending an election if the government can see this through, they are going to lock in an agenda pretty soon? 20:25 - In terms of where you think the general public is as well as the political class, what are the general conversations you are having with your colleagues compared to a year ago? 23:15 - Can you lay out for our listeners what your top four priorities in how we should approach this? 25:15 - 10-17% of Australians now hold Crypto in some form or another, do you think there is a relative comparison in the house of representatives that are thinking about this? Or whether they're interested in learning about it on behalf of their constituents which they claim to represent?

  • 37. Illuvium | Co-Founder Kieran Warwick on P2E, AAA Blockchain games, the GameFi future

    37. Illuvium | Co-Founder Kieran Warwick on P2E, AAA Blockchain games, the GameFi future
    Mar 17 2022
    On this episode of Koji Conversations, Soph chats to the Co-Founder of Illuvium, Kieran Warwick. Alongside two of his brothers and a mammoth team of approx. 200 employees, the Illuvium team are building first AAA blockchain game. An open world collectible and auto battler all in one. With 1.2 million registered users and over $1 billion staked in the protocol prior to game launch, it’s safe to say the community is ready. Keep an eye out for the open beta releasing in June. Join the conversation for a chat about GameFi, predictions for legacy studios to enter the space, playing the metaverse long game, and the next 12 months for Illuvium. JOIN ILLUVIUM’S COMMUNITY Project twitter: @illuviumio Kieran’s twitter: @KieranWarwick Site: https://t.co/YeFIfhJVXV (illuvium.io) TIME STAMP OF QUESTIONS 0:14 - We like to kick off all of our episodes with an elevator pitch from founders just to give us the TLDR on what Illuvium is building and where it is at? 01:30 - For you as a founder and the rest of your team, what have been the key unlocks in the sustained engagement of the token, community and game when you do have such a long road map in order to get out a AAA game? 05:23 - Why gaming, why did you want to pursue Illuvium in this instance, was it a gap in the market? 10:35 - When these AAA games are entering the space, there’s going to be a consolidation of where the attention is. These guilds will have these gluts of in game assets, how do they pivot in your view? 16:04 - And what about the skill level for a player in Illuvium, are these illuvials going to be hard to catch to varying degrees? 17:18 - On something like E Sports, what are your predictions around the legacy gaming industry entering the Blockchain space, you guys obviously have first movers advantage, but you have to expect that they're at least going to attempt to integrate. Or do you think its a ‘we own our patch and we’re going to stick to it’ mentality? 19:55 - Broadening the scope a little bit, what is the bull case for the metaverse more generally in your view? 25:06 - Bring me up to speed on the timeline for Illuvium at the moment. You guys are about to launch a private beta? and what does it look like for the next two quarters after that? 27:40 - Do you feel like this is the perfect synergy of everything that you actually need to create a AAA game, or are there four competing interests as far as these timelines go that you’re trying to get out? 29:49 - If I want to join the community or follow along to get in at the ground floor, what is the best way?

  • 36. TracerDAO | V2 teaser and the future of Derivatives markets

    36. TracerDAO | V2 teaser and the future of Derivatives markets
    Mar 9 2022
    On this episode of Koji Conversations, Jack and Soph chat to Co-Founder of TracerDAO Patrick McNab and head of the Tracer team Billy. Tracer DAO is a smart contract protocol for derivatives, focussed on providing a suite of tools for users to manager their risk or supercharge their holdings via their new derivative primitive, perpetual pools. They offer effective risk management tools to hedge out risk that exists on balance sheets, as well as allowing users to effectively take out further risk on underlying positions. Following the V1 launch on Arbitrum, they have seen about $375m volume, with $50m TVL. V2 will supercharge that growth. How? Permissionless deployment. Removal of minimum commit sizes. Distributing minting fees to pool token holders. Cambrian explosion of markets. Pat and Billy also detail how the problem of volatility decay is being solved in V2, as well as teasing their perpetual swap product due to launch later this year. JOIN Tracer DAO's COMMUNITY Project twitter: @TracerDAO Person twitter: @pat_mcnab & @bwelch13 Site: https://tracer.finance/ (https://tracer.finance/) TIME STAMP OF QUESTIONS 0:08 We always start off the episode with an elevator pitch, so welcome to the podcast and bring us up to date of Tracer DAO V2 2:11 It sounds like a pretty incredible missing piece of the DeFi puzzle for many users, lets dive further into volatility decay, and how you guys plan to tackle that to make sure you’re incentivising those long term positions 3:34 What is volatility decay and what's the trade off with volatility decay? 4:19 So the longer I am in a position, the more exposed I am to volatility, the more my collateral will naturally depreciate over time, that's the trade off for no liquidations? 5:16 And you get that same sort of utility but now with V2 it with 75% or about there, less volatility decay than V1 5:40 So you’re looking to have a fee mechanism then distribute the rewards back to people holding those pool positions? 5:54 So that's counteracting any negative effects that someone might have? 6:01 What were the biggest takeaways from your V1 launch, aside from aside from volatility decay? 7:23 You guys launched in September last year, so compared to maybe where the market is at now would have been viewed as a bull market, have you seen the users change their position holdings reflecting that? 8:15 So you basically built out a structure product on top of the Tracer pools, one to allow people to gain access to this opportunity that stirred from the fact of inefficient allocation of resources by people participating in the pools 9:15 Lets chat about Arbitrum for a bit, you guys have been one of the first projects there. What are your thoughts on Arbitrum, what do you do think about L two 22? 12:12 Is Arbitrum going to be the final home for tracer finance, or is there looking across to different chains as well, maybe Avalanche, Phantom, is a multi chain future in the pipeline? 14:19 As for the scalability of Tracer DAOs specifically, I know a big feature of V2 will be permissionless deployment, so essentially your smart contracts are designed so any user can plug and play a market they wish to gain exposure to. Why for your team is permissionless deployment so important? 17:27 When I’m deploying a market, what are the key features? There is the price feed, and there is this collateral type as well. Do you get to pick and choose the collateral type and the price feed that you’re using or is it the collateral type is permissioned and you can only select from a few and then the price feed is permissionless? 18:26 Is there any risk in having a highly volatile collateral type? 19:01 Are you expecting to see some really novel collateral types maybe ?__? positions for example? 22:31 The removal of commit sizes is going to open you up to a whole new raft of smaller market participants. Why was that really essential to the V2 launch? 23:25 Lets go a bit more drastic,...
