E150: Meow From Jupiter: How We're Bringing Crypto To 1 Billion People

Meow, founder of Jupiter, reveals how his team built crypto's largest DEX aggregator with over $2 trillion in volume and $300M annual revenue - and why their token still failed.

While other protocols obsess over technology, Jupiter focused on making crypto accessible to everyone by building the "Google of finance." But despite massive product success, communication failures and community mismanagement tanked the token.

E146: Helius CEO: Why Your Crypto Balance Isn't Private (And Why That's Dangerous)

Mert Mumtaz, CEO and co-founder of Helius, reveals why he's betting everything on privacy, Solana infrastructure, and long-term conviction plays like Zcash and Hyperliquid.

While most crypto investors chase short-term gains, Mert operates on 3-5 year time horizons, building core infrastructure for Solana and defending privacy as crypto's most unsolved problem. 

From explaining how connectivity and reflexivity drive extreme price movements to sharing how a Slavic girlfriend changed his approach to capturing value, this conversation goes deep.

E145: Story Protocol Founder: How Crypto Could Finally Unlock an $80 Trillion Asset Class

Seung Yoon Lee, CEO and co-founder of Story Protocol, is building crypto infrastructure to unlock the $80 trillion creative asset class.

After selling his previous company Radish Fiction to Kakao for $440 million, Seung saw a bigger problem: streaming platforms like Netflix make billions while creators who make the content get almost nothing. 

Story Protocol lets creators own and trade their work like stocks, while enabling anyone to legally remix content with automatic royalty payments.

Mark Moss, Bitcoin strategist and investor, reveals how to build wealth with Bitcoin without gambling or luck. 


After losing everything in 2008, he shares why the fiat system keeps you poor and how Bitcoin changes your relationship with money forever.


Mark breaks down his projections for Bitcoin reaching $1 million by 2030 and $45 million by 2050, explains why your money loses 10-15% annually (not the 2% they claim), and why 75% of lottery winners go bankrupt.

When Shift Happens Podcast
I sit down every week with the most based people in crypto. My goal is to create a safe space to have the deepest and most real conversations with the biggest builders and investors in the industry, as well as to help educate the mainstream people, politicians, celebrities and big Web2 entrepreneurs coming into Web3. Hopefully this platform does its little part in onboarding as many people as possible into the incredible world of opportunities that Web 3 offers, while staying true to crypto’s core values and ethos. Thank you for watching.
