Hello, everyone, and welcome back to another episode of the Delphi podcast. Today, I am delighted to introduce you all to Daryl. He is the founder of b three. Daryl and I go back many years now actually, you know, regular at SYNCs and catching up and sort of exploring different different areas of overlap. And so super excited to see him now in the in the driver's seat of his own project, which I'm, you know, proud proud angel investor in. I'm very excited for this sort of upcoming token launch. Darryl, thank you for being here. Thank
you for having me, Pierce. Yeah. I just wanna say huge, huge pleasure. Super pumped to be here today. As Pierce was saying, I think when I was first exploring the crypto gaming space, you were one of my first calls. So I can say, you know, in a lot of ways, like, you kind of brought us to where we are today on this journey. So super grateful to be here today. Excited to chat and share more about b three and our background.
Absolutely. Appreciate that, man. Yeah. Let's kick it off then. We'd love to hear yeah, give us a bit of context on sort of, like, yeah, journey into the industry, what you've been up to, you know, prior to b three, and, obviously, sort of Coinbase based, trajectory and kinda how that's, yeah, anchored things for what you're focusing on now.
Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely. I won't bore your listeners with all of the detail, but I'll give you guys the quick and dirty. I've been working in crypto since late twenty fifteen. I first began experimenting with, I think, more enterprise blockchain applications at the time. If you folks remember, that was, like, the meta at the time where fortune five hundreds were gonna take, you know, payments, a supply chain, and make that more efficient on chain. And I think, actually, we've come full circle. Some folks are actually doing that in a meaningful way, but that was my first entry point. And then I
love that. And, yeah, maybe you could
give us a bit
of flavor in terms of, like, you know, why gaming as in, like, you know, on a from a personal perspective, like, yeah. I would love to know a bit more about why that was why you naturally sort of, like, gravitated towards as well.
Yeah. I feel like that comes to basically, like, elementary school, Daryl. Like, I've always had, I think, a deep, deep passion and just been drawn to gaming almost as, like, an outlet. For for me, it was like, when Elon said gaming was like therapy, it resonated a lot with me actually because, you know, I just love back in the day, you know, plugging in to Diablo two or, you know, StarCraft. Blizzard was basically my home. I lived in Blizzard for longest time and just kind of, you know, checking out and just playing and grinding. And so I've always had, like, a deep, deep affinity for gaming.
