For this episode I spoke to Jaya Klara Brekke (@jayapapaya), an academic researcher on crypto and Head of Strategy at NYM who recently gave the keynote speech for the Haus Der Kunst DAO Summit.
During the interview we spoke about her skepticism and cautious optimism she mentioned in the keynote speech, the contradictory feelings on the market as someone who was raised in traditional leftist spaces mentioned in her article in the Agorism in the 21st Century Journal, and how many critics tend to fall short. We also discussed her paper on a new protagonist in the economy she calls “hacker-engineers” and how they are not as ideological as critics want to believe as well as her criticisms of Hayekian thought.
