The CryptoManiacs Podcast

So we had to do it...

We talked about PEPE...As painful as it was, it's news so we had to cover it!

But then we got into the good stuff....Lots of Hive and lots of LEO talk...

Of course :)

Hope you enjoy the show!

One of the major reasons that Hive isn't a household name (yet) is the lack of smart contracts!

There's lots of talk, development and now a game plan to go forward with the development of some serious layer 2 solutions to this problem.

Vaultec, the lead dev behind the SPK Network and 3speak is working on Hive's Virtual Smart Contract platform (VSC) and he stopped by to discuss this exciting news coming from the blockchain!

A little earlier than normal but hey....We like to keep people on their toes :)

Plenty to go over in this episode including:

- CTPX's record breaking day

- More emphasis on mobile needed in crypto?

- Why aren't Hive users flocking to the different apps?

And so much more!

Always a blast when a top 20 witness stops by and hangs out with the 'Maniacs!

Today we welcomed Marky Mark to the show, to talk about some history of the blockchain, April Fool's and so much more.

Hope you guys enjoy the podcast, always a fun time!

In today's day and age it's important to talk with people in crypto.....That you have actually met in real life!

And NEO most definitely isn't AI ;)

The long time content creator on Telos and Hive dropped by the show to talk about the state of crypto, Web 2 vs Web 3 and so much more.

Lots of fun catching up with him, hope you enjoy the show!

There's never a dull moment on the 'Maniacs podcast!

Guess what we dove into?

Hive, Hive and lots more Hive :)

Surprised? We're not!

Hope you guys enjoy the show and thanks for listening!

Another jam packed episode of the 'Maniacs and we dove into something...

A little different!

We called it, the Task and Jongo Secrets to Success in Crypto!

Act now , it's a limited time offer lol

We all know the massive potential of web 3 gaming.

And there are plenty of success stories yet to be written....Especially on the Hive blockchain.

Today we spoke with one of the largest LVL token holders on chain....And his work with the Psyber-X FPS game!

That's right....A first person shooter, built with the Unreal Engine...Right on Hive!

If you are into web 3 gaming, this is a show you won't want to miss!

Episode.....200!

Wow, what a journey :)

And we're honored to be joined by anomadsoul for our 2009th episode.

He spoke about Threads and all the marketing projects he's been working on with LeoFinance!

Hope you guys enjoy the show and thanks so much for checking out the 'Maniacs!

Let's talk....Crypto!

And of course, all the exciting projects being built on the Hive blockchain.

As lots talk about decentralization and web3 and whatever the buzz word is, the Hive community.....Lives it!

And that's very obvious from today's episode! Hope you enjoy it!

One of our favorite guests was back on the show today!

We welcomed back Eddiespino from the SPK Network and the Aliento Project to the 'Maniacs!

Eddie is one of the hardest working guys on the blockchain so it's always great to catch up and get a feel for how things are going on his end!

A fantastic show and we went over a LOT!

Welp...This was unexpected!

Hey we started out with good intentions...You know, talk about crypto for an hour.

We did that for about half of the show, the other half.....

Well, you'll have to listen in and find out :)

Task was having some technical difficulties today, and it's too bad because he would have LOVED to ask Blain about....

Everything we're building in the CTP Tribe on Hive :)

In today's episode we welcomed back lead developer of the CTP community, Blain Jones.

We dove into Veews, Hive Pay, ListNerds and everything we're working on in 2023.

Hope you enjoy the show!

Influencers....Publications...

It seems like in crypto, they all talk a great game...Yet rarely are products of the products they are supposed to represent.

Yeah today's episode was a little bit of a rant when it comes to....The crypto 'influencers' and their lack of actually using the projects they claim to be fans of.

There's something truly special about the Hive blockchain!

It's global!  And lives are being changed across the globe from the efforts of communities and individuals across the planet.

Today we welcomed Manu from Hive Cuba to the show and he spoke about the impact Hive is having on his nation of Cuba and how it's truly impacting so many people!

Hope you guys enjoy the show!

If you ever feel like you need to catch up with everything taking place on the Hive blockchain....

Look no further than the wealth of information - Taskmaster4450!!!

It was another first on the podcast this week :)

Matt Starkerz was back for part 2 of our talk with him about the SPK Network and what the team has planned for 2023.

A fantastic talk and a great way to kick off the new year on the Hive blockchain.

Hope you guys enjoy the show :)

Let's call this....Our year in review episode :)

As we're gearing up for a big 2023, we decided it would be good to go over all the development on Hive over the past 365 days and discuss what we are most bullish about.  And of course, what we're looking forward to it in the new year!

What a week for the Hive Blockchain!

We hit an all time of high of $3.40 and while the rest of the crypto world was tumbling, Hive seemed to keep climbing.

We dive into that and so much more in this Friday's episode!

Today we had the honor to have one of the OG's of the Hive Blockchain stop by for an epic talk!

Your questions. Answered!

We had a great turn out this week and you guys showed up with some awesome ones ;)

This. Show. Was. Awesome!

This week we welcomed Ecoinstant from DreamR to not only dig into all the projects he's got going on but it was an epic trip down memory lane!

Eco has been on the blockchain since Steem and shared a few memories on how far we have come as a community.

We had a blast!

Awesome show today and we dove into all your questions and comments from the previous week and had a blast doing that!

We're entering into the age of abundance and we're honored to have you along for the ride! 

We love these sessions :)

Diving into your questions each and every week is most definitely the highlight for both of us. And we tackled a LOT of topics!

From Splinterlands to funding your Uphold card. Renting NFTs to the power of the Hive blockchain.

Everything and anything in between...

We even got a little 'controversial' with a talk at the end about the downvotes on our blockchain.

We hope you enjoy the show!!

Get ready for a MASSIVE show!!!

Not only did we clock in at over 2 hours of informative discussion but the excitement is building for the launch of the SPK Network!

And lasts week, they announced the date for the snap shot of the claim drop that's coming up shortly...So you won't want to miss on that!

Such an exciting time for TRUE Web 3 technology and it's being built right here on Hive!

Grab a cup of coffee, sit back and enjoy the talk :)

Streaming live is always an event...

And this week was no different.  Yours truly (@jongolson) had his internet basically die in the middle of the stream but true to form, the legend that is @taskmaster4450 continued on without missing a beat!

I did get back on the show and finished up with your questions of the week!

Apologies for the crazy episode, but we hope you get a ton of value (and a few laughs) from it :)

Today was the 'Hive News' show because my goodness...

There is a lot going on with the blockchain this past week:

This truly is podcasting 2.0 on a whole new level and we discuss what it means for creators as well as the podcasting industry as a whole.

Hope you enjoy the show!

We're honored to once again have Blocktrades stop by the podcast and give his updates on the following Hive based projects:

- The HAF (Hive Application Framework) which is designed to as Blocktrades out it...Let Hive go to the developers and speak in their language instead of having them come to the blockchain and try to learn ours!

- The Smart Contracts vs. SMT situation and why Hive is primed to become a haven for layer 2 solutions.

- A new airdrop....??? Whoa!!!

Hope you guys enjoy the show!

The future of podcasting....Is on the blockchain!

Special guest Brian of London joined us this week as he dove into the value for value protocol when it comes to delivering and consuming content on a podcasting platform.

This is very exciting stuff in the space and even more so because of all the Hive integration he plans on using!

A must listen to episode :)

Another awesome Q&A session with the most epic audience and community on any podcast ;)

Yeah we're biased but you guys came OUT this week in full force!

Loved the questions and we hope we got them all answered for you.  Stay tuned next week as we've got another Q&A session loaded up and a special guest interview with Brian of London on Tuesday!

Today was an awesome show :)

We were joined by blockchain developer and legend of Hive - Blocktrades!

We went over the past successful hardfork,  scalability of Hive and tackled the HBD peg...

So much to go over that we'll be bringing him back on August 17th as well for part 2 of the show!

Hope you guys enjoy the talk, there was a ton of juicy content in it!

It's another Q&A session with the amazing 'Maniacs community!!

Some fantastic questions this week, not only about crypto but how to build online businesses using crypto and blockchain technology.

We hope you guys enjoy the show and thanks so much for listening :)

The end is here!

Red days!

Sell sell!

Or.....Accumulate more!

In today's episode we dive into the reasons why you need to ignore the FUD and keep stacking your bags when it comes to crypto...Especially when everyone else is selling :)

Now is the time to accumulate more! 

The Q&A sessions!!!

Our favorite time of the week, is when we get to dive into your questions and attack them head on :)

We had a great session today with plenty of awesome questions from the Maniacs!

Thank you so much for making this podcast such a joy to create, and we look forward to answering more questions next week.

We're taking the show on the road!

Well, at least Jon is on the road....And this week we had a lot to discuss.

From the 'big picture' of crypto to what caught out attention from last week's talk with the SPK network.

Of course, there's plenty of Hive love, as always :)

It wouldn't be a 'Maniacs show with that!!

It's our weekly Q&A session!

And we had some great questions from the community....Talking about everything in between meme coins to the Hive hardfork!

A fun talk that we really hope you guys enjoy :)

It's our 25th episode already...WOW!  Time sure does fly when you are having fun...

And to celebrate we had an epic session with the co-creators of the SPK network (Home of 3speak.tv) - Dan Hensley and Matt Starkerz

This episode was filled with all the amazing plans these guys have in store for the SPK Network and 3speak in the coming months...Plus how important it will play in not only decentralization of all media, but our beloved Hive blockchain as well.

This is not to be missed...

And we spoke for hours so we've broken this session into 2 parts. This is part 1 and the second part will be published later this week.

Hope you enjoy the show :)
