The Crypto del Carmen Podcast: Recent Episodes
Crypto del Carmen
Crypto del Carmen is the largest Crypto community in the Riviera Maya based in Playa del Carmen, Mexico. Our members are crypto enthusiasts, developers, investors from all over the world and we meet weekly in a highly produced not-for-profit (donation based) dinner event with 100+ people in attendance where we facilitate relevant topics in the crypto space with speakers from the community. The aim has always been to grow the community and bring awareness along with education.
We are expanding to have a permanent space to onboard individuals and businesses, with a separate focus on a lighting network payment system that we want to bring to the local area initially.
Fireside Open Chat
Topics will be discussed by our curated panel. We don’t believe in “expert” panelist, but instead “experienced” panelist, people who have some battle wounds and happy to share their thoughts.
Your questions are encouraged & our panel of enthusiasts will do their bit to unpack, poke & discuss them in more detail
Topics not fixed, just a starting point:
- Terra/Luna/UST – Hug, therapy and growth time
- Crypto winter, how best to stabilize
- Never let a good crisis go to waste – what can we DO!
- Portfolio balancing, how NOT to over-leverage yourself, safe practices
TOPIC TO DISCUSS:
Fire-side Open Chat Your questions are encouraged & our panel of enthusiasts will do their bit to unpack, poke & discuss them in more detail Topics not fixed, just a starting point:
1. Legalising Bitcoin (CAR just made it legal, Panama final draft legislation)
2. UST/Luna, Ponzi or Genius?
3. Tron’s new stable coin. Replace USDT? Is there room for all these stables?
4. BlackRock backs all USDC + maybe DeFi! 🤯
6. Bitcoin conference GREAT or a sea of trojan horses?
7. Can you play crypto games & make enough to live in Mexico?
SHARE YOUR PASSIVE INCOME STRATEGIES
(ok, maybe not less controversial) This topic splits people, we've got
- Purist, keep their coins locked, 0% month
- Defi degens, 2% month
- Node Nerds, 10-100% month
- Trading bots of all shapes, sizes and risk, 5-15% month
...And yield farming, well, there aren't enough zero's on my keyboard
(i think 875k% is the most I've seen!) 🤯
Regardless of where you sit with it
People live off "passive" income
Yes its passiveness & risk flux
But none the less it is a real thing
And we thought it about time we gave it space to be discussed
Bring your platform of choice
Share your voice
But keep your poise
What if we could do it with Crypto and never touching Fiat?
Wednesday’s Dinner will be with Shane Sibley from Travala.com, the world’s leading blockchain-based travel booking platform, over 2 million properties, 230 countries and thousands of customers using their crypto directly to live and travel.
We will discuss the disruption and innovation that is already happening in the travel and tourism space, why it was needed, where its going and the bigger impacts this is having on the industry.
It's been long enough. We are finally back. A lot of discussion in the group the last few weeks about "X" is better than "Y". We framed it as Bitcoin vs Everything. Not exact but you get the point :)
Let's bring those discussion out in the open for a fun night out at our Wednesday Dinner series for a live interactive discussion
A NIGHT OF CRYPTO CULTURE
On this night we have a special guest, Aaron Koenig. Legend in this space. Google him! If it wasn't for him, we would not have started these events.
His new book contains many artworks that reflect and show CryptoCulture - all those memes and slang words that you only understand if you have been around in the crypto community for a while.
Through these artworks you will learn what expressions like HODL, Honey Badger, When Lambo? or To the Moon mean and how they came into being. His book is especially useful for people who are new into the crypto space and want to know more about it.
Explains everything you need to know about Crypto Art and Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs), and the basics of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin.
