    He SOLD Venmo... Now He’s Made a Meme Coin

    Iqram Magdon-Ismail, co-founder of Venmo, is working on a new app called JellyJelly, a video chatting platform for podcasters. Ahead of the app's official release, he launched a meme coin for the project which soared to a $250 million market cap. But, he didn’t have a plan for how the app would use the token so it’s since fallen to just $5.5 million. In this episode, we speak to CEO of Jelly Jelly, Iqram Magdon-Ismail, and investor Sam Lessin about why they decided to launch the token, how they can separate the product from crypto degeneracy, and if they have a plan for the token yet.

    He Created $300M Meme Coin By ACCIDENT

    Ron made a YouTube video in an attempt to prove that cryptocurrency is worthless, after seeing Fartcoin shoot over a $1 billion market cap. Once the video was published, crypto degens caught wind of the story and sent Unicorn Fart Dust (UFD) to over $260 million—now $300 million. Ron joins us to tell his side of the story, how his opinion has changed on crypto, and why meme coins are important. Before this Ron was a gold and silver YouTube content creator, posting daily videos analysing the market. Because of this, the crypto community has branded him as a “boomer” despite Ron rejecting this tag—he’s technically a few years out. While UFD hasn’t changed his mind on silver and gold, it has made him think more positively about crypto. Why? Put simply, the power of community.
