  • 92 - Live with the Stellar Development Foundation's VP of Tech Strategy Tomer Weller

    Soroban, the developer preview of the new SmartContract platform is NOW LIVE! It’s a unique opportunity for developers to influence the new platform in it's infancy! Stellar Development Foundation's VP of Tech Strategy Tomer Weller swings by to give us a quick breakdown on the new platform, the origin of the name Sorobon, what you can do and where you can get plugged in as you begin to explore potential use cases for smart contracts within your own projects. 


    More on Soroban:

    "....With this preview, developers can write and test contracts on their local machine without depending on a running network. It focuses on contract development, rather than complete dApp development. This means that, for example, you can write and test a liquidity pool contract, but not (yet) a full liquidity pool app that indexes and consumes trade data.

    You can now write contracts with initial versions of the Soroban environment, SDK, and CLI. There are also some early Docs and Examples to help get you started. In the next few iterations, we will be introducing an events system, indexing service, better gas metering, a Stellar Core integration, and much more.

    This is the first time in the history of the SDF in which we are releasing such an early preview. We’re doing it because we believe that we’re building something special with Soroban, and true to our open-source roots, we believe it’s important to share the development process. We want Stellar ecosystem developers and smart contract developers from other ecosystems to have a chance to make a meaningful impact together.

    Put another way, we want your feedback! Test it out, see what you can do, and let us know what you think. But don’t forget this is a preview. Expect your code to break, realize that updates will shift things, and understand that the release version of Soroban may be a significantly changed product.

  • 91 - Live with World-renowned, Topps Licensed Artist Blake Jamieson

    Sam and Fred Kyung-Jin Rezeau, CEO of the NFT Marketplace Litemint, sit for an open Twitter Space discussion with world-renowned and Topps Licensed Artist Blake Jamieson. We touch on his roots, how he got started as a professional artist and get insight into the mindset it takes to make it in this business as a professional artist.

    About Blake:

    During a trip to Las Vegas in 2017, while dropping off a portrait to Rick Harrison (Pawn Stars), Blake met former NFL player and current NFL manager Jarred Fayson. Jarred encouraged Blake to paint for professional athletes, introducing Blake to a few of his clients (CJ Anderson, Jahleel Addae, Corey Liuget). Blake has since leveraged those relationships to become the premier portrait artist for NFL athletes, and is quickly making a name for himself in other professional sports.

    In 2020 Blake started working with Topps, redesigning 20 iconic baseball cards alongside 19 other artists for Project 2020. Since then he has launched a solo set, Topps 1951 by Blake Jamieson, and is currently working on Project70.

    Blake's art is in the collections of Howie Mandel, Gary Vaynerchuk, Rick Harrison, and over 250 professional athletes in the NFL, NBA, MLS, MLB, NHL, and PLL. His art has also been purchased for international private collections, including in Spain, Canada, Dubai, Australia, and Switzerland.

  • 88 - LIVE with OvaryIt who’s teamed up with StellarWomen and The Blue Marble to bring NFT for impact on Stellar

    CEO Mary Kucek and COO Lissette Logan visit the studio to share the announcement of their NFT for Impact project. This is not your run-of-the-mill NFT Collection. No, this is far greater with a larger impact. The Hidden Faces of Domestic Violence collection is symbolic of those who must hide in plain sight for their safety.  

    What you get  90% Tax Deduction Receipt Beautiful digital Sir Cheesely art and thank you membership letter What we are fighting for:  

    Nearly 20 people per minute are physically abused by an intimate partner in the United States.  

    1 in 4 women and 1 in 9 men experience severe intimate partner physical violence, intimate partner contact sexual violence, and/or intimate partner stalking with impacts such as injury, fearfulness, post-traumatic stress disorder, use of victim services, contraction of sexually transmitted diseases, etc.  

    72% of all murder-suicides involve an intimate partner and 94% of the victims of these murder-suicides are female.  

    Unintended pregnancy is 3.3x higher for women who experience both sexual and physical abuse. Unfortunately, a growing trend is trying to impregnate those trying to free themselves from their abuser. This way the abuser remains in control.  

    Over 45% of female rape victims were raped by an intimate partner.  

    90% of the funds for the NFT sale goes directly to the OvaryIt Foundation, the remaining 10% goes to the amazing Sir Cheesely (artist) and Blue Marble Platform. All proceeds that the Foundation receives goes directly to helping survivors get period products, pregnancy tests, and health services.  


    OvaryIt is a telehealth platform that was created for women by women. We believe that all women should have access to affordable and high-quality contraceptive options. Through the use of telehealth, we can now bring those options directly to the comfort of our patient's homes. Because each woman is unique and has a distinctive lifestyle and different goals, there can be no one-size-fits-all solution to birth control. Our proprietary technology works not only to ensure patient safety, but to assist physicians in finding patient's their contraceptive match, be it hormonal or non-hormonal.  This ensures better patient compliance and contraceptive efficacy.
