For our first Web3 themed video episode on our podcast we chose Ben Appleby, co-founder and CEO of Akshun. Crypto OG and digital product designer with over 17 years experience in product and 10 years in crypto. Ben was an early adopter into Bitcoin, Ethereum and NFTs. He has worked for several high profile crypto companies including Coinburp Exchange, Elliptic and was the first person in Europe to use a Bitcoin ATM.

In this episode, we discuss Ben’s background, his current project on the intersection of Web3 and live sports, his advice to those who would like to build a Web3 startup, as well as covering his hopes and predictions for the future of Web3 and his own projects.

Each week we are releasing an episode in the field of either Metaverse/Gaming, Web3/Crypto/Blockchain, AI or XR. In case we have an extra Tuesday in a month, we have a guest from the Creative industries. Tune in, there are more amazing guests and stories to come up in the future.
