    Stop creating for humans. Start building for Bots

    Ensue wants your AI agents to stop waking up with amnesia.  In this episode of DealFlow, Austin Baggio explains why Ensue is building a shared memory network so agents can build a shared memory together instead of starting from zero every time.​ We dive into what a “memory layer” actually is, how Ensue lets agents store and share context across tools and models, and why the future of AI infra is built for agents first, humans second. If you’re building agents, RAG systems, or multi-agent workflows, this is a must‑watch. Key takeaways - AI agents are evolving rapidly and changing how we interact with technology. - Memory management in AI is crucial for user experience. - Data context is essential for effective AI interactions. - The future of AI will involve more personalized and efficient agents. - Building a strong team is vital for startup success. -  Understanding your audience is key to product development. - Fundraising requires a defensible business model and clear growth strategy. - The environment you work in can significantly impact your productivity. - Taking risks and trying new things is important for personal growth. - Continuous iteration and feedback from users drive product improvement.

    Fortnite Is Dead… Watch Out for This Game!

    When a game is good enough, gamers don’t care what tech is under the hood. They just play. In this episode of DealFlow, I’m joined by Theodore Agranat, Director of Web3 at Gunzilla Games, the studio behind Off The Grid, a cyberpunk battle royale/extraction shooter that’s been stacking momentum fast. Theodore breaks down how Gunzilla is building a “play-to-own” economy (not the usual “play-to-earn” gimmicks): weapons, skins, cyberlimbs, even music can become player-owned assets — and the wild part is you can do it without needing to understand wallets, swaps, or crypto UX. It’s designed to feel like a normal console/PC game first… with ownership happening quietly in the background. We also get into what it takes to ship at AAA standards, why regulation matters (including MiCA compliance in Europe), why Avalanche became their foundation, and how esports features + community programs are driving retention. In this conversation:  Why “Web3 gaming” only works when the game is great first (and blockchain is invisible) Play-to-own explained simply: why gamers should be able to sell what they earn The “Fortnite skins” moment: when kids realize they don’t actually own digital items MiCA + compliance: why Gunzilla went the hard route to go mainstream Why Gunzilla built on Avalanche to run their own chain + smooth onboarding The community engine: Pioneer program, UGC collaborations, and what’s next for esports Guest: Theodore Agranat - Director of Web3, Gunzilla Games X (Theodore): https://x.com/TheodoreAgranat LinkedIn (Theodore):   / theodoreagranat  Off The Grid: https://gameoffthegrid.com Avax.network — Homepage X (Off The Grid): https://x.com/playoffthegrid X (formerly Twitter) Off the Grid is produced by Gunzilla Games and built on the GUNZ blockchain technology Gunzilla Games: https://gunzillagames.com/en/ X (Gunzilla Games):

    This is why Micro-Creators will dominate 2026

    Quack. Creators don’t need more “brand deal spreadsheets.” Brands don’t need more agencies spraying money and praying. They need a clean system that matches the right product with the right voices… at scale. In this episode of DealFlow, Yurii “Quacker” Kyparus breaks down how Wallchain is rebuilding growth around creators and trust. Not big celebrity promos. The micro creators people actually believe. We discuss why most founders lose because they overbuild products and underbuild distribution, why “organic growth” is usually paid growth in disguise, and how Wallchain uses AI to score real influence while fighting farmers and low-quality content. No stress if you’re not deep in crypto. This is really a conversation about how attention works now, and how the next generation of marketing gets automated. In this conversation: - Why ads fail for anything complex, and why creators convert when trust matters - The truth behind “organic growth” in crypto, and how distribution is usually paid in disguise - Micro creators vs big influencers: higher trust, better ROI, real conversations - How Wallchain scales deals from 10 creators to 500+ using AI, without the ops nightmare - Mindshare + CPM: what “attention that matters” means, and how they hit sub $2 CPM - The full system: anti slop + anti farming, community from zero, crypto rails for payouts, and culture (NFTs, “quacking”), plus Yurii’s founder path and the “buy Bitcoin” closer.

    Why Sports Betting Isn’t Global Yet And How Rarebet Fixes It

    Most sports betting platforms aren’t “better.” They’re just locked to North America. Rarebet Sports is building an onchain alternative to the traditional sportsbook stack — starting with Daily Fantasy Sports (Pick’em-style over/unders), instant stablecoin rails, and global access from day one. In this episode, Rarebet CEO Zack breaks down: Why DraftKings/PrizePicks don’t scale globally (and why Rarebet can) How onchain rails enable faster deposits/withdrawals + new incentives (even yield) The distribution hack: tapping crypto communities + NFT utility to acquire users cheaper The real moat: the RBS Oracle aggregating sports data into one builder-friendly API What they’re tracking at mainnet launch: volume + retention mechanics Where this goes next: prediction markets, team-level markets, and AI agents placing bets If you want to understand where sports betting is going... this is the blueprint.

    Create a $1M App with NO Coding

    When you start in Web3 doing tokenomics stress tests… you’re not supposed to end up leading a vibe-coding product that lets 15,000 people build apps by chatting to AI. Alex did. And the bigger twist? DreamSpace is not “another AI website builder.” DreamSpace is a bridge where creators can ship Web2 apps fast… then flip the switch to Web3 only when it actually matters. In this episode of DealFlow, Alejandro “Alex” Lanaspa breaks down what vibe coding actually is, why AI is weirdly good at turning words into working software, and how DreamSpace is helping non-technical builders generate and publish apps fast, without getting wrecked by the usual security mistakes. In this conversation we talk about: - What vibe coding is and why it’s exploding - Why UX beats “chat-only” builders - How creators drive the next wave of adoption - Why most apps will fail (and why that’s a feature) - How to build for distribution and revenue, not just a demo - Designing Founder systems that prevent burnout Guest:  Alejandro “Alex” Lanaspa — Product Lead, Dreamspace Dreamspace: https://dreamspace.xyz/ X (Dreamspace): https://x.com/dreamspaceHQ Discord (Dreamspace): https://discord.gg/dreamspace Alex on X: https://x.com/a_lanaspa Alex on LinkedIn: https://es.linkedin.com/in/alejandro-lanaspa Dreamspace is Powered by Space and Time Space and Time: https://spaceandtime.io/ X (Space and Time): https://x.com/SpaceandTimeDB Discord (Space and Time): https://discord.com/invite/spaceandtimedb Host: Keira on X -  https://x.com/RealMissAI Keira on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/keira-nesdale-b287899b/  DealFlow on X -  https://x.com/dealflowpodcast MH Ventures on X -  https://www.mhventures.io/ MH Ventures on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/mhventure/

    He Quit Amazon & Meta to Build a Blockchain Empire

    When you start university without a computer… you’re not supposed to end up at Meta, Amazon, and Microsoft. Bulent Tustan did. Then he went solo-founder mode. In this episode of DealFlow, Bulent breaks down what he’s building with UMI (Unified Multi-VM Infrastructure), a Layer 2 on Ethereum designed to run multiple virtual machines in one unified execution environment. Translation: MoveVM + EVM can live together, access each other’s data, and unlock liquidity and apps across ecosystems without the usual friction. We also get into Odyssey (UMI’s breakout community platform) and why it hit ~13,000 daily active users with ~65,000 users even while their social following is smaller than the product itself. This isn’t hype. It’s founder scars, product instincts, and a real attempt at making Web3 feel… seamless. In this conversation: - From “no computer” to a PhD + Big Tech - What a virtual machine (VM) actually is (EVM, MoveVM, SVM) - Why UMI removed the execution layer (and what that enables) - Why Multi-VM on Ethereum is a different bet than “bridging VMs” - The UX/security wedge: preventing wrong-network mistakes - How Odyssey launched, crashed instantly, then kept growing - The “daily habit” loop that makes users come back (Tamagotchi energy) - Solo founder realities: team dynamics, stress cycles, and sacrifices - AI for coding: where it helps, where it makes people lazy Guest  Bulent Tustan — CEO & Founder, UMI UMI: uminetwork.com X (UMI): https://x.com/umi_network Odyssey: https://odyssey.uminetwork.com Bulent on X: https://x.com/BulentTustan Host Keira — https://x.com/RealMissAI DealFlow — https://x.com/dealflowpodcast MH Ventures — https://www.mhventures.io/ If you’re building in crypto, thinking about L2s, or just trying to understand what’s actually happening under the hood of Web3… this one will sharpen your map.
