Host Tom Shaughnessy of Delphi Digital (DelphiDigital.io) is joined by Alex Wearn, the Co-Founder & CEO of IDEX.   This is a very interesting episode as we discuss how IDEX, a sleeping giant, grew to become the largest decentralized exchange and smart contract on Ethereum. We discuss competition with other DEXs, centralized exchanges like Binance and Coinbase and hybrid competition.  We also dive into IDEX’s future, discussing its two tokens; one membership token and one staking token, the future of governance on IDEX and some details on its layer-2 solution to increase throughput. Frankly, I had no idea IDEX had this much going on, and Alex shares some extremely insightful details around the entire IDEX roadmap.

Host Tom Shaughnessy of Delphi Digital (DelphiDigital.io) is joined by Dillon Chen of Commonwealth Labs to discuss Edgeware. As a reminder Polkadot is an interoperability platform which is set to launch in a few months, and Edgeware’s goal to bring smart contracts to Polkadot itself.  This would bring smart contract functionality to polkadot, and allow it to compete with Ethereum, Tezos, EOS and other smart contract platforms.  Edgeware is currently running an innovative alternative to a raise, known as a lockdrop. Instead of raising money from investors, Edgeware is allowing holders of Ether to lock their ETH up and receive Edgeware tokens in the future or to signal their intent to back the project, without locking to earn edgeware tokens. This is a really innovative approach to not only garner a large potential stakeholder base which is critical for a project's success, but also to increase the value of Edgeware’s future treasury without raising money from investors. Currently there is 881k ETH locked and 1.2M ETH signaled, or $273M and $372M in value respectively.  Edgeware is a high profile project, and this is hopefully the most in-depth discussion to date on Edgeware with a ton of great color on Polkadot as well.    To access the insights package of Delphi's leading crypto research, visit DelphiDigital.io on your device and sign up using coupon code CHAINREACTION   Follow Tom on Twitter @Shaughnessy119 Follow Dillon on Twitter @dillchen   Disclosures: This podcast is strictly informational and educational and is not investment advice or a solicitation to buy or sell any tokens or securities or to make any financial decisions.

Host Tom Shaughnessy of Delphi Digital (DelphiDigital.io) is joined by Tyrone V. Ross Jr, a managing partner at Noble Bridge Wealth Management.  The long story short is Tyrone is the crypto wealth manager of the future. Tyrone has decided to differentiate his practice by offering his wealth management services to the general public, unlike the majority of wealth managers and financial advisors who not only won’t help or touch crypto assets, but frankly most are not up to speed on the space. It’s great to hear Tyrone’s journey, his unreal energy, and how he helps clients across the spectrum with their crypto assets. While normal routines like crypto custody, buying/selling, and what to do in certain situations is easy for crypto natives to understand, Tyrone is serving the needs of the wider population outside of the crypto echo chamber. We need to educate and help the global population who are not crypto native get involved with crypto, and thats what Tyrone is doing every day.
