On our penultimate episode of the season, we’re speaking with Irina Marinescu, co-founder and CEO of buidlbox, a global hub for builders to learn, earn, and connect in web3.
Irina is also a mentor at Tachyon and a founder of Women in Crypto, and she previously worked as General Counsel at Gitcoin throughout its disaffiliation process to decentralize Gitcoin Holdings (which later became Supermodular) from GitcoinDAO back in Spring 2022.
It was during this transition period that Gitcoin’s bounties and hackathons product, which was originally launched in 2017 by Kevin Owocki, began morphing into what is now buidlbox, and in February 2023 at ETH Denver, buidlbox officially launched. Around that time, Supermodular (previously Gitcoin Holdings) decided to shift its entire focus to supporting the thriving buidlbox platform.
In this episode, Irina shares updates on where buidlbox stands today and how it is shaping the future of learning and work, what she learned from the Gitcoin disaffiliation process, both from a legal and an organizational perspective, and how non-technical people can get involved in hackathons and building in the space.
We then get into the recent SAB 121 bill that President Biden recently vetoed, why Irina believes the SEC hasn’t exactly been aligned with the crypto ecosystem, and the one thing we need to do more of to help regulators change their minds about crypto.
