About This Podcast
BeaconLayer Podcast takes listeners inside the real stories behind the companies shaping web3.
Hosted by the BeaconLayer team, each episode features long-form conversations with founders, builders, and operators who are turning ideas into products, teams, and ecosystems.
We go beyond headlines, announcements, and polished launch threads to understand what building actually looks like: the early conviction, the products shipped, the things that broke, the hiring decisions, the hard pivots, the near-death moments, and the choices that ultimately made it work.
This is web3 from the builder’s side — the wins, the chaos, the mistakes, and the lessons you won’t find on the timeline.
