    Ep81 Stay Native

    The Net Society crew is joined by Alejandro from Fellowship for a full-episode debate on the state of NFTs, crypto art, and digital art in 2026. Sparked by Pri’s essay and Alejandro’s response, the conversation digs into what made NFTs feel new in the first place, from internet-native markets and global distribution to transparent ownership and community formation. Alejandro pushes on the limits of decentralization, arguing that while ownership and access may be open, attention, visibility, and support are still far more centralized than the space likes to admit. From there, the crew debates whether crypto art has drifted too far toward traditional art logic, whether collectors are asking the wrong things from the medium, and whether artists need to take bigger risks with work that feels native to the rails. They also explore the difference between crypto art, digital art, and contemporary art, before turning to attention, distribution, pricing, auctions, royalties, and the long hangover from the last NFT cycle. The episode wraps with a more open-ended conclusion: there is no single path forward, but the space probably needs more experimentation, more honest reflection, and less nostalgia for the moment when everything only went up.

    Ep80 Everything Old is Networked Again

    The Net Society crew is back together for a wide-ranging conversation on AI IPO season, market structure, and where capital flows next. They kick things off by debating whether massive public listings from SpaceX, OpenAI, and Anthropic could mark a top, a wealth creation event, or a new chapter in the AI economy. From there, they explore how the AI trade is pulling attention away from crypto, the role of data centers as the new bottleneck, and whether ETH benefits from building in the shadow of the AI boom. The conversation then turns to open source models, local AI, margin compression, and whether frontier AI companies should be valued like software businesses or utilities. Later, the crew gets into orbital data centers, regulatory arbitrage in space, and the “network state” taking its final form above Earth. The episode wraps with a cultural detour through paid speech, dead internet theory, New York discourse, vibe shifts, political exhaustion, and the strange experience economy of waiting in line for mediocre coffee.

    Ep79 Celebrity Wrappers

    The Net Society crew is back together to unpack a week of internet spectacle, AI froth, crypto privacy, and demographic anxiety. They kick things off with Shl0ms’ Monet fakeout, using the viral AI art discourse to talk about attention games, bots, and the strange durability of crypto art. From there, they debate Martha Stewart’s AI home management startup and whether celebrity-backed ChatGPT wrappers are a real consumer wedge or just another top signal. The conversation then widens into model commoditization, low switching costs, U.S.-China chip strategy, robotics, and the next phase of the AI race. The crew also digs into Zcash, financial privacy, Hyperliquid’s USDH drama, and the exhaustion of retail crypto getting co-opted by insiders. The episode wraps with a detour through World Cup bloat, declining birth rates, “full-time children,” family formation, and the unsettling prospect of pregnancy robots.

    Ep78 Slop, Stunts & Millennial Politics

    The Net Society crew is back together for a wide-ranging conversation on politics, crypto, AI, and the accelerating weirdness of the internet. They open with Spencer Pratt’s LA political rise, using it as a lens for how celebrity, AI slop videos, and direct-to-feed campaigning may be reshaping political media. From there, they compare LA and New York political content, Mamdani’s street-level style, and the possibility of a broader reform movement breaking through old institutional structures. The crew then turns to crypto, unpacking major token and infrastructure moves around Arc, Canton, Circle, public companies, and the growing convergence between blockchains and traditional finance. Consensus in Miami becomes a referendum on crypto’s cringe problem, before the conversation shifts into AI, where Anthropic, xAI, Colossus, Cursor, Grok, OpenClaw, Hermes, and agent harnesses all point toward a new phase of frontier technology competition. The episode closes by asking whether AI agents are following a DeFi-like arc: real innovation buried under waves of noise.

    Ep77 The Headless Internet

    The Net Society crew is joined by John from SuperRare for a wide-ranging conversation on AI agents, headless software, crypto infrastructure, and the strange future of machine-mediated markets. They open with AI psychosis, neurotic models, compute subsidies, and the rising push toward CLI-first products, before exploring what happens when agents become the primary users of SaaS, payments, marketplaces, research tools, and crypto rails. From there, Aaron walks through a set of 2035 and 2040 agent economy predictions, including autonomous micro-enterprises, agent procurement, machine capital markets, self-sovereign AI, robotic factories, and AI-managed civic infrastructure. The episode then turns toward internet culture, Brian Johnson, peptides, crypto’s identity crisis, NFT market momentum, DeFi hacks, AI-assisted hacking, and the question of what new digital culture could actually bring buyers and creators back into the room.

    Ep75 The Graveyard

    The Net Society crew records live from New York and opens with a familiar question in unfamiliar times: are we actually back, or just bouncing inside a bear market. From there, the conversation moves through competing views on crypto’s current state, with debate around institutional demand, stablecoin growth, ETF flows, and why the next leg up may still require more pain. The crew then explores what machine-to-machine payments could actually look like, from agentic software and API micropayments to the early shape of a machine-native economy. That leads into a sharp discussion on AI product building, where they argue that the models are already good enough and the real bottleneck is ambition, taste, and the ability to frame better problems. In the back half, they work through a run of crypto casualties and controversies, including Foundation’s collapse, Lattice shutting down, and the Bittensor Templar blowup, before closing on a more optimistic note: why so many of the most interesting builders in AI seem to come out of crypto, and how that culture may shape what comes next. Mentioned in the episode Response to Covenant https://x.com/const_reborn/status/2043083033969033610 Lattice winding down https://x.com/latticexyz/status/2044103611072835744 Show & Hosts Net Society: https://x.com/net__society Aaron Wright: https://x.com/awrigh01 Chris F: https://x.com/ChrisF_0x Derek Edwards: https://x.com/derekedws Priyanka Desai: https://x.com/pridesai Production & Marketing Producer/Editor: https://x.com/0xFnkl Social: https://x.com/v_kirra (00:00) - Are We Actually Back?

    Ep74 Doomerville to Azores

    The Net Society crew opens in full doomer mode, unpacking the growing public backlash to AI and whether fear around job loss, surveillance, and elite control is hardening into a broader political movement. From there, they debate whether AI anxiety is overblown, whether the real effects on labor are already here, and how anti-tech sentiment differs from the internet’s earlier adoption era. The conversation then shifts into model safety, Anthropic’s posture, and the strange mix of hype, secrecy, and moral panic shaping the AI discourse. In the back half, Aaron spins out a wild but compelling Bitcoin scenario around the Strait of Hormuz and the possibility of a future fungibility crisis, before the group detours into Sam Altman media narratives, Satoshi speculation, and the enduring appeal of unsolved mysteries. They close on a more human note with a sharp travel riff on the Azores, network state jokes, Europe’s slower pace of life, and whether AI’s best case is not mass replacement, but a world where people work less and live better. Mentioned in the episode Sam Altman targeted in attacks https://x.com/nypost/status/2043616560921633060 Jasmine Sun - AI populism's warning shots https://open.substack.com/pub/jasmine/p/warning-shots?utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=web The Bronx is Burning https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/29389.Ladies_and_Gentlemen_the_Bronx_is_Burning Show & Hosts Net Society: https://x.com/net__society Aaron Wright: https://x.com/awrigh01 Chris F: https://x.com/ChrisF_0x Derek Edwards: https://x.com/derekedws Priyanka Desai: https://x.com/pridesai Production & Marketing Producer/Editor: https://x.com/0xFnkl Social: https://x.com/v_kirra (00:00) - AI Backlash, Fear & Political Resistance (08:48) - AI Adoption, Movies & Internet Memory (15:09) - Anthropic, Model Safety & Claude Discourse (19:06) - Bitcoin Fungibility, Hormuz & Crypto Weirdness (25:05) - Sam Altman, Satoshi & Unsolved Mysteries (31:07) - Azores Travel, Europe & Network State Talk (41:10) - Working Less, Municipal Strain & AI Optimism (51:20) - Welcome & Disclaimer
