Episode Notes

It's rare to come across founders that are family members, too. In this case, Nick and Vince are brothers and the founders of alex.arweave.dev. Alex. is a decentralized archival platform that leverages the immutable and permanent data storage of Arweave to preserve important digital artifacts. 

Forward Research [https://forward.arweave.dev] has been an important ally as the protocol that is Alex. continues to be more fully featured and intuitive to use. The brother duo (Nick & Vince) are working around the clock to delivery new opportutnies for pool operators and more. In this conversation we talk about what it's like to build in a decentralized ecosystem (when you come from a more corporate background), the coming and likely surpassed millionth digital artifact created on Alex., and so much more. 

It's a profound episode with notes of fundamental importance for the history and future of both our digital and physical civilization. Archiving important information is becoming increasingly important, and this team is leading the charge.
