| 6/23/26 | ![]() 319. TBR - TAP Protocol’s Biggest Upgrade | Tapscope Cross-Chain DEX | NAT to Miners Retrospective (ft. Benny the Dev) | In Episode 319 of The Block Runner Podcast, hosts William and I-man are joined for a third time by Benny the Dev of Tap and Track. Benny walks through the TAP protocol's largest upgrade since 2023: native time locks, delegations, and HTLC-based cross-chain swaps that work without bridges, all done natively through meta protocols rather than soft L2s. They dig into Tapscope, the new cross-chain DEX, and Benny's take on perpetuals he calls superpositions, isolated collateral arenas that avoid cascading liquidations. He also teases phase two (the full cross-chain trading matrix) and a phase three AI integration. Then a retrospective on routing NAT emissions to Bitcoin miners, now over sixty percent of hashrate with four of the top five pools engaged, why the declining Bitcoin subsidy and security budget is a real long-term problem, and why NAT, built on the bitsfield with a minimal, non-invasive footprint, may be the perfect engineering answer to it. Plus: building ahead of the narrative, the OpenSea lesson, NAT.fun's dual-rail Solana and Bitcoin approach, Tim Sweeney's Team Open and the NFT/gaming revival, and where AI genuinely helps in development versus where human instinct still wins.

| 6/22/26 | ![]() 318. TBR - The Collectibles Onramp | Bitcoin’s Power Law Problem | BigNoodle Graduates on NAT.fun | In Episode 318 of The Block Runner Podcast, hosts William and I-man dig into the booming collectibles wave: Collector Crypt's exploding revenue, twenty five hundred dollar Pokemon packs, and a new SDK that lets anyone build a storefront on top of real-world graded card inventory. They ask why gambling on cardboard might be crypto's next consumer onramp, and where it goes after Pokemon. Then they unpack Bitcoin's power law: a new analysis that fit only the first six years of price data yet nailed the next decade. What do those assumptions hide, and why is the Coinbase CEO shrugging off quantum risk and the long-term security budget? As the guys put it, when no OG Bitcoiner is concerned, that's concerning. Finally, they cover BigNoodle graduating on NAT.fun. The AI DePIN project revealed its art, the market reacted instantly, and it previews how Vibe Studio turns market data into a creative compass.

| 1/28/26 | ![]() 299. TBR - Ralph Rugs Us | Will Crypto AI Ever Work? | NAT Goes To Davos! | This episode of the Blockrunner Podcast breaks down one of the most revealing weeks we’ve seen at the intersection of crypto, AI, and creator monetization. What began as a promising experiment in creator capital markets quickly turned into a live stress test for liquidity, incentives, and trust. We walk through the rise and collapse of the Ralph token, why it initially made sense, how it gained traction, and why it unraveled the moment the creator sold. The fallout wasn’t just about price action. It exposed deeper structural problems that most internet capital markets haven’t solved yet. From there, the conversation expands into the accelerating timeline toward AGI, why looping AI systems and agent swarms change the nature of work, and what happens to human purpose when intelligence becomes abundant. We react to Davos conversations, including moments where Bitcoin is openly laughed at by legacy financial institutions, and explain why those reactions reveal more ignorance than confidence. We then tackle the uncomfortable question most Bitcoin holders avoid: how the network remains secure long-term. Transaction fees alone are not a viable answer. We explore why Bitcoin’s security budget faces a real challenge over the next decade and why a second subsidy may be the only credible path forward without changing Bitcoin’s core protocol. This episode ties everything together into a single thesis. Internet capital markets are early, powerful, and inevitable, but without proper incentive design and liquidity structure, they will continue to fail in dramatic fashion. If you’re thinking seriously about AI, crypto, creator monetization, and Bitcoin’s future, this episode will challenge your assumptions. Learn more about the second subsidy thesis at natgmi.com. Topics: First up, walking through the rise and collapse of the Ralph token, why it initially made sense, how it gained traction, and why it unraveled the moment the creators sold. Next, reacting to Davos conversations, and a moment where Bitcoin is openly laughed at by legacy financial institutions. and Finally, why a second subsidy may be the only credible path forward without changing Bitcoin’s core protocol.

| 1/28/26 | ![]() 298. TBR - Vibe Coding The Metaverse | AI Inflection Matching Geo-politics | DOOM On TRAC 🔫 | AI isn’t just another tech cycle. It’s colliding with geopolitics, labor markets, crypto, and creator economies all at once. In this episode of the Block Runner Podcast, we break down why the global landscape is shifting faster than most people realize. From delayed tariffs and geopolitical power struggles, to AI-driven job displacement, no-code engineering, and the rise of vibe coding, this conversation explores what actually matters beneath the noise. We connect the dots between AI infrastructure, resource bottlenecks, robotics, and why this moment feels eerily similar to early crypto. Except this time, execution is possible. We also dig into where crypto still fits, how AI agents interact with crypto rails, and why new business models like creator capital markets are emerging. To close it out, we run a live Doom deathmatch on Track to demonstrate peer-to-peer infrastructure in action, then share updates on NAT, community conviction, and why long-term alignment still wins. If you’re trying to understand where AI, crypto, and creators intersect next, this episode is for you.

| 1/15/26 | ![]() 297. TBR - How DMT Takes Over OnlyFans | NAT Idea Club | Vibe Coding EXPLOSION! | We unpack how DMT, NAT, and AI-powered creation are converging into a new creator economy that looks fundamentally different from previous cycles. The conversation starts with a simple but critical idea: signal matters more than vibes, especially in markets driven by narratives. As AI tools collapse the distance between ideas and execution, the definition of “building” is changing in real time. What once required teams, capital, and long timelines can now be prototyped, iterated, and shipped by small groups or even individuals. That shift has major implications for creators, platforms, and monetization models across crypto and beyond. We explore DMT not as a buzzword, but as a production engine that enables creators to move faster, experiment more freely, and participate meaningfully in emerging markets. Along the way, we discuss community-driven building, vibe coding, and why some level of saturation is not a failure, but a necessary phase of discovery. The episode closes by examining creator monetization through the lens of platforms like OnlyFans, not as a destination, but as an early signal of where creator capital markets are heading. The real opportunity lies in aligning incentives, lowering production costs, and building systems that reward contribution over hype. This conversation isn’t about predicting the next trend. It’s about understanding what works before the market catches on.

| 1/8/26 | ![]() 296. TBR - Manifesting A 1 Trillion Dollar Non-Arbitrary Token Market | Crypto Emotional Overload 🤪 | First episode of 2026 and we’re setting the frame for what matters this year: AI is hitting escape velocity, “creation” is getting commoditized, and that changes everything from business models to the metaverse thesis. We talk through the cultural shift (the 2025 existential turn), why low-sentiment periods are when you should be paying the most attention, and how social media incentives reward overreaction. Then we zoom out to the macro: metals ripping, Bitcoin lag dynamics, and what a “real” 2026 setup could look like. On the crypto side, we dig into the creator coin debate and why the fan-to-investor switch breaks expectations, using the Nick Shirley Zora post as a live case study. Finally, we share our north star: a world where CoinGecko has an “NAT” tab, non-arbitrary tokens become a real market category, and miners distributing NAT becomes the moment the market can’t ignore. Key topics: AI → new creator economy + new niches Metaverse iteration gets cheaper and faster The problem with “only up” expectations for creator Macro signals: metals, lag theory, and Bitcoin’s next leg Zora case study: viral content vs market participation NAT vision: miners, distribution dashboards, and the path to scale If you made it through 2025, welcome to 2026.

| 1/8/26 | ![]() 295. TBR - 2026 Crypto Predictions | 2026 NAT Visionmap! 👀 The Block Runner CLIMAX 💥 | 2025 wasn’t a failed bull market. It was the start of a structural bear. In this episode, we break down why Bitcoin holding the “blue zone” may signal maturity rather than weakness, and why that shift breaks many of the assumptions crypto has relied on for the last decade. Slower upside, collapsing speculative volume, and pressure on miners aren’t anomalies — they’re consequences. We revisit the biggest signals from this cycle: Trumpcoin, treasury-company leverage, crypto AI hype, and why on-chain activity quietly evaporated. Then we pivot into AI-generated content, dissecting a viral video that fooled millions and what it reveals about authenticity, persuasion, and trust in the AI era. From there, we look ahead to 2026: – Miner revenue compression and Bitcoin’s security budget problem – Why “fees will fix it” isn’t enough – Neobanking + stablecoins as the real onboarding wave – Regulation turning crypto into structured internet capital markets We close with the NAT thesis: Bitcoin’s long-term sustainability depends on a second subsidy. NAT is explored as a non-arbitrary, miner-aligned solution with a clear catalyst timeline (V1, V2, adoption, flywheel). This isn’t about hype. It’s about whether crypto becomes infrastructure — or breaks under its own assumptions.
