Coffee with Captain: Onchain Markets, Products, and Builders

• Digital Collectibles Adoption Poll + Perks, Access and Utility

  Bitcoin and NFT markets set a quick backdrop as the crew checked floors and recent brand moments like Pudgy Penguins’ Sphere spotlight. The core of the episode focused on a poll about what will bring the next five million people into digital collectibles, with a clear takeaway that “cheaper floor price” is not the unlock. Instead, they argued adoption will come from perks, access, and real utility that makes ownership feel rewarding, especially for long-term supporters. The conversation broadened into incentive design, warning that points, multipliers, and fee discounts can drive noisy behavior if they are not tied to genuine participation and distribution.Subscribe to the Coffee with Captain Newsletter: https://coffeewithcaptain.beehiiv.com/Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@coffeewithcaptainshowFollow on X:Captain Zwingli: https://x.com/ChrisJourdanThis podcast is for entertainment purposes only.

• NFTs After the Hype: Collectibles, Airdrops & Access

  Loki joins Coffee with Captain as a Friday co host to trace NFTs from the wild 2021 mint days to the more grounded collector market of 2025. Together they challenge the "NFTs are dying" narrative, comparing projects like Doodles and the way digital art now shows up at Art Basel Miami to longer term collectibles such as Pokémon cards and Jordan rookies. The crew walks through how leading collections now create real value through airdrops, defined community roles, access to deals and new tooling like TokenWorks instead of relying on floor price promises. They dig into what the next wave of buyers will actually look for, why realistic price bands matter and how onchain ownership can still feel fun. Cap closes by reflecting on Coffee with Captain's role as a daily filter for the space, previewing upcoming high profile guests and inviting listeners to keep up through the revamped Friday newsletter.Special Guest Cohost:Loki - https://x.com/lokithebirdSubscribe to the Coffee with Captain Newsletter: https://coffeewithcaptain.beehiiv.com/Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@coffeewithcaptainshowFollow on X:Captain Zwingli: https://x.com/ChrisJourdanThis podcast is for entertainment purposes only.

• Neuko’s Onchain OS, G*Boy Badges and Building in a Red Market

  Markets opened red across majors, setting up a broader conversation about rotation and which teams are still building meaningfully in a difficult environment. That context framed the main guest segment where Austin from Neuko joined live from Solana Breakpoint to explain how Neuko’s infrastructure layer and G*Boy’s character-driven brand work together as a long-term onchain OS. He detailed the badge experiment, the in-person ARG activations, and why forcing real commitment creates a more authentic CRM layer than typical mint cycles. The discussion connected G*Boy, Rekt, and Hyperliquid as examples of teams maintaining momentum despite market softness. The show wrapped with a brief look at another Solana mint’s supply cut and what it signaled about brand health versus hype.Special Guest:Austin - Building Neuko AI: https://x.com/austin_hurwitzNeuko: https://x.com/neukoaiSubscribe to the CwC Newsletter: https://coffeewithcaptain.beehiiv.com/Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@coffeewithcaptainshowFollow on X:Captain Zwingli: https://x.com/ChrisJourdanThis podcast is for entertainment purposes only.

• REKT's Institutional Play, Neuko G*Boy & Doopies Mint Fallout

  Doopies mint day on Solana anchored the show as Cap and the crew asked who besides existing Doodles holders would actually show up to mint. They broke down how OGs and Dooplicators are treated, how the allowlist and supply might work, and the hinted role of the DOOD token, but kept returning to how unclear the overall plan still feels. A big chunk of the conversation questioned Doodles long term direction, praising BT’s art but asking how years of capital and collabs have not turned into a simple story or obvious value for holders. This led into a broader discussion about comms and brand building in web3, comparing Doodles to projects like Chimpers, Pudgy and Yuga and pointing to examples like Base hiring pro communications to avoid similar mistakes. Throughout, callers shared their own experiences as collectors and fans, pushing on the tension between loving a brand’s art and feeling left in the dark about where it is actually headed.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.
