Good now, revolutionaries—

Today on The Rise Up Morning Show, Evan and Alex are joined by Morgan Kuphal—who got into web3 via a Chainlink hackathon, became a Chainlink software developer, and is now the cofounding/CTO of Tunnl, a new platform helping creators earn tokenized rewards for their social content.

Morgan shares his journey to crypto and along the way we tackle some big topics: what is an oracle (and why is Chainlink such a big deal)? What can smart contracts do (beyond tokenizing money)? Plus we discuss Ethereum's Pectra upgrade (dropping tomorrow), and why we think the web3 revolution is just getting started.

This episode is a must-listen for curious learners and aspiring builders.
