Episode Description:
In today’s crypto landscape, we’re bombarded with flashy schemes promising quick riches. From “tap-to-earn” apps where users click pictures for tokens to meme coins hyped on social media, it’s easy to get swept up in the hype. But beneath the surface lies a troubling truth: most of these projects are designed to enrich their creators at the expense of unsuspecting participants.
In this episode, we dive deep into the mechanics of dishonest token distribution models—like tap-to-earn scams and meme coin presales—and ask why no one has yet created a truly honest token. What if we could design a system that distributes tokens fairly, without hidden privileges for developers? Could a decentralized faucet-like mechanism replace exploitative practices?
We’ll also clarify the difference between tokens and stablecoins, explore how trust is built (or broken) in blockchain systems, and discuss why Bitcoin remains a benchmark for honesty despite its imperfections. Join us as we imagine what a truly fair token might look like—and whether humanity is ready for it.
