Summary
We're excited to share a new conversation featuring Prasanna Sankar (Co-founder, Rippling & Founder, 0xPeople) in discussion with Daniel Kivatinos (Co-founder & CEO, loopfour). Together, they explore how the next generation of startups will be built—and why the future may not look like the traditional Silicon Valley playbook. In this video, they dive into: • How DAOs could become the new default organizational model • Why crypto enables user-owned, programmable ecosystems • Lessons from building and scaling startups from 0 → 1 and 1 → 100 • The intersection of AI, on-chain data, and new product opportunities • What's actually working in this crypto cycle—from airdrops to on-chain social • Long-term frontier ideas, including decentralized energy and massive solar bets If you're building, investing, or curious about where startups and Web3 are headed, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.
