Coffee with Captain: Daily NFT Conversations

• Beeple’s Robot Dog at Art Basel & Bitcoin’s 2026 Bull Case

  Art Basel turned into a live case study for digital art’s coming-of-age as Cap recapped Beeple’s Regular Animals installation, the Zero One Ten hall, and Jack Butcher’s physical–digital receipts that stopped crowds in their tracks. The crew zoomed out on what on-chain art actually solves, from provenance and certificates of authenticity to how high-net-worth collectors might eventually move serious capital on more transparent rails. They contrasted artist-led experimentation at Basel with NFT brands still replaying the 2021 playbook, using Doodles’ new Solana mint and secondary collections as examples of what does and does not feel like real progression. Along the way they revisited the “Bitcoin in the 80s” call, walked through why this still looks like a mid-cycle structure into 2026, and connected macro flows back to the next wave of digital art adoption.Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@coffeewithcaptainshowFollow us on the X app:Captain Zwingli: https://x.com/ChrisJourdandGen Network: https://x.com/dGenNetworkThis podcast is for entertainment purposes only.

• Art Basel 2025: Digital Art Goes Mainstream with Beeple, XCopy & Jack Butcher

  Cap’s live-from-Miami breakdown centered on Art Basel’s turning point for digital art, with Beeple’s surreal installations, XCopy’s Bubbles drop, and Jack Butcher’s interactive mint illustrating how onchain work finally felt integrated into the broader art world. The crew dug into why this year’s Basel attracted real attention beyond crypto circles and how experiential pieces functioned as “POAP 2.0” with far better onboarding. They explored the reality of event design in Miami, using traffic, timing, and venue choices to explain why some activations thrive while others fall flat. The conversation expanded into whether NFT-only conferences still make sense and why future growth depends on showing up at major cultural events instead. Touching on traditional art’s financial struggles, AI’s impact, and new education tracks, they framed this moment as digital art’s clearest move into the mainstream.Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@coffeewithcaptainshowFollow us on the X app:Captain Zwingli: https://x.com/ChrisJourdandGen Network: https://x.com/dGenNetworkThis podcast is for entertainment purposes only.

• Flow Blockchain with Roham, Xcopy’s Bubbles Mint & Art Basel’s Digital Art Moment

  Bitcoin’s “we are so back” moment framed the show as Cap revisited his bottom call and why this still looks like a mid-cycle structure. The crew walked through Art Basel’s digital art presence, from Beeple’s museum style displays to NFTs earning a more serious cultural lane. They broke down Jack Butcher’s Basel receipts and Xcopy’s Bubbles mint, focusing on mint mechanics, collector strategy, and what might become true cycle artifacts. In the second half, Roham, CEO of Dapper Labs and cofounder of Flow Blockchain, joined to talk Flow’s renewed push into consumer crypto and where it fits in the next wave of onchain adoption. The conversation closed by exploring Flow Credit Markets, wallet “actions,” and how Flow’s UX and fee design compare to other chains.Special Guest:Roham - CEO of Dapper Labs, Cofounder of Flow Blockchain: https://x.com/rohamSubscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@coffeewithcaptainshowFollow us on the X app:Captain Zwingli: https://x.com/ChrisJourdandGen Network: https://x.com/dGenNetworkThis podcast is for entertainment purposes only.

• Flow Blockchain’s Ecosystem Shift + Bitcoin’s Renewed Bull Case

  Bitcoin served as a quick market check before the conversation shifted into a deep examination of the Invest America program and the OneDell contribution, raising questions about stimulus design, middle-class pressure and long-term wealth outcomes. Flow’s ecosystem pivot and tomorrow’s interview with Roham emerged as the key forward-looking storyline for builders heading into the next cycle. The crew also covered key brand moments including Rekt’s collaboration with Superior Beverage Group, Moonbirds redemption concerns, Pudgy’s NHL partnership and Jack Butcher’s Basel mint.Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@coffeewithcaptainshowFollow us on the X app:Captain Zwingli: https://x.com/ChrisJourdandGen Network: https://x.com/dGenNetworkThis podcast is for entertainment purposes only.

  Cap revisits his Bitcoin thesis, tying ETF flows, state-level interest and DC policy chatter to a long-term macro view.

Cap shares that Steve is leaving Coffee with Captain to take a marketing leadership role at OpenSea. He explains that Steve will oversee communications, help shape rewards and loyalty products, and guide the brand’s social presence. The show closes on how NFT brands budget in a risk-off market and how AI tools could soon reshape what we see in our feeds.Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@coffeewithcaptainshowFollow us on the X app:Captain Zwingli: https://x.com/ChrisJourdandGen Network: https://x.com/dGenNetworkThis podcast is for entertainment purposes only.
