Another awesome interview with our newest host Shahirah Gardner and we listen in as she interviews Aus DeFi's NSW Chapter Co-Lead, Nick Bishop (aka BishFactor, aka @N1ckB1shop, aka Ihatedefi.eth on Twitter - gotta love ironic names). In this episode we learn about Nick's journey into the world of web3 (and the dark side) coming from a traditional finance background.
