Rice Crypto on the Life of a Crypto Content Creator, and What Skills It Takes
![image](https://thumbs.spee.ch/view/2/72565375fff13b62.png) I had the fantastic pleasure of speaking at length with Rice, crypto YouTuber and content creator, about the ins and outs of making a living trying to create engaging content. We covered some of the basic pitfalls, such as trying to rely on YouTube ad revenue, and securing sponsorships that don't compromise your integrity. We also covered LBRY's emergence as the top earner for a video platform, and YouTube arbitrarily censoring crypto creators.
I go into a deep dive with Scott Cunningham, social media expert and host of Crypto & Things, about the practical world of crypto and blockchain social media: which sites are good, which are bad, and, most importantly, how to make money off of just posting articles, videos, and social posts online. Can you actually live 100% off of what you make in crypto-tokens from simply posting online? Watch to find out.

Rob Viglione of Horizen explains in detail the launch of ZenDoo, the project's sidechain platform, touted as the first truly decentralized sidechain service in the cryptospace. We go into detail about the platform, as well as sidechains and why anyone would want to build their own. We also go into deeper subjects such as the future of advanced privacy in the crypto mainstream, as well as market cap rankings and their effect on the future of a project.

I go in a deep dive with Jeremy Kauffman, the CEO of decentralized content platform LBRY, with some of the tougher questions on the platform and its future. We went over the deep details on how decentralized the platform actually is, from the data and content to the metadata and user experience, and if de facto censorship is still possible on the platform. We also went over LBRY Inc.'s sustainability, as well as the sustainability of the profits for creators on the platform. All the hard questions, answered.

Finally, we delved into why all this really matters, why one would choose the struggle of making crypto content for a living instead of something else, and what the world could really use to move forward in a healthy way.

Kurt Wuckert Jr. comes on the Digital Cash Rundown once again to talk the latest crypto happenings, mostly about Bitcoin and Elon Musk, of course. We discuss Musk's Bitcoin-manipulating antics, which of course launches a discussion into the energy efficienty of proof-of-work mining, and comparisons to proof-of-stake. We also talk Dogecoin, and whether or not there will ever be any significant development. And of course a lot of extra stuff.

Bitcoin and its forks have had a good run, taking various modifications on the same tried-and-true base model that launched the entire cryptocurrency ecosystem. The forks in particular have seen benefit from Bitcoin's branding and network effects. But could this end up being a detriment in the long term? Is it possible that, by remaining "a Bitcoin", these coins may be driving towards a dead end in innovation?

Jeremy Kauffman comes on the Digital Cash Rundown to talk about all the latest crypto headlines, including the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) engaging blockchain analytics firms to track down DeFi projects to see if they were illegally selling securities, and all the ethical issues that raises, and what it means for regulation in the US space. We also go into Cuba adopting rules and frameworks for the adoption of cryptocurrencies, and where the global financial hegemony of the US goes after countries start adopting cryptocurrencies en masse.
