In this episode of the Mint Podcast, we're joined by Coinbase Wallet's Lead Engineer, Chintan Turakhia, and discuss the world of wallets, building onchain audiences, solving the challenges of wallet onboarding, and the need for simplification.
Chintan breaks down his hot take on why wallets are becoming "super apps" that integrate various onchain actions, with wallet-to-wallet messaging being a core use case.
I hope you enjoy this jam-packed conversation.

This bonus episode welcomes Jesse Pollak, contributor #001 at Base Protocolâa layer two Ethereum solution from Coinbase. They discuss their initial meeting at a music NFT event in Denver and trace Jesse's path in the crypto realm: from early startups, being the 70th employee at Coinbase, to crypto advocacy roles in D.C.
Jesse sheds light on Base's aspirations, aiming to position it as more than just another L2, but rather a key player in the evolving web3 creator economy, with an ambitious goal to bring in a billion users. They touch upon the ever-growing potential of NFTs, the idea of NFT-based dating, decentralized ridesharing, and the importance of accessible onchain applications.
Coinbase stands on the brink of ushering web3 mass adoption, and this conversation offers a timely insight into the trajectory of tokenized media and the broader crypto ecosystem.
I hope you enjoy our conversation. -
In this episode, Iâm joined by Shane Mac, the CEO and Co-founder of XMTP.
We had an intimate conversation about Shaneâs entrepreneurial history where we took a detailed glimpse into his previous startups, multi-million dollar acquisitions, and his vision for the XMTP protocol.
The motivation behind this episode was to capture a core pillar of web3 growth networks and why communication is the bedrock of any thriving project or company.
Their recent partnership announcement with Coinbase Wallet sparked a wave of excitement around wallet-to-wallet communication, especially at Bello.
Recently, Bello integrated XMTP where users can now send mass messages to their NFT collectors or rather any list of wallets.
XMTP is key for web3 mass adoption and I couldnât be more excited to capture this moment on Mint.
So without further ado, I hope you guys enjoy our conversation.

GM, Mint Podcast listeners!
First off â thanks for being patient with me. If you've been following my newsletter, you may recall my mention of a short break due to Bello's acceptance into a16z's crypto startup school. During this time, my focus was dedicated to building Bello's team and enhancing our services as the premier onchain analytics solution for web3 brands and enterprises.
On top of that, the bear market took a turn and my plans for executing Mint Season 8 had to pause temporarily.
While these past two months have been a whirlwind, I must admit that I've truly missed podcasting. However, as we gear up for Season 8, I couldn't resist bringing you something special. Currently, I find myself in Paris for ETH CC, and here's where the magic happened. I had the pleasure of engaging in a spontaneous and raw conversation with the talented DJ and producer, Daniel Allan.
While having dinner with friends yesterday, Dj and Producer Daniel Allan surprised me with news of his upcoming innovative release, scheduled to drop today.
Instantly captivated, we decided to seize the moment.
We strolled towards the majestic Eiffel Tower, found a cozy spot on the expansive lawn, and right there, at 12 in the morning, using my voice memo app on my iPhone, we recorded this extraordinary episode.
As you tune in to our conversation, remember that it's unfiltered and authentic, enriched by the ambient sounds of Parisian vendors tempting us with wine during our chat.
In this podcast episode, Daniel shares his exciting journey as an artist running his own company and updates since announcing his $1M dollar Seed round. He opens up about the challenges he faced and the importance of content creation and a strong social media presence for artists, especially during the bear market.
Daniel takes us through his approach to music releases and teases us with some insights into his upcoming project. Additionally, he shares his thrilling experiences performing at his first music festival. The episode culminates with Daniel discussing his upcoming drop on Sound called Duality and his experimental use of the 6551 token standard.
So, relax and savor this unique and candid episode. And rest assured, there's more thrilling content coming your way in Season 8!
