1 00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:06,120 Speaker 1: I'm Stacy Marie Ishmael, Managing editor of Crypto for Bloomberg News, 2 00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:09,840 Speaker 1: and this is Bloomberg Crypto at Daily Bloomberg. I heard podcast. 3 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 1: It's Thursday, August eighteen. Slana is one of the newer 4 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:28,639 Speaker 1: block chains and crypto, and for a while it was 5 00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:31,680 Speaker 1: positioned by its fans as a challenger to the dominance 6 00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:36,040 Speaker 1: of Ethereum. Like the Ethereum blockchain, Salana offers things like 7 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,920 Speaker 1: n f t s or non fungible tokens, smart contracts, 8 00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:45,040 Speaker 1: and its own native token called saul. Salana's developers say 9 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:48,880 Speaker 1: their blockchain is a faster and cheaper alternative to existing technology. 10 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 1: Solana's critics, on the other hand, points of frequent outages, downtime, 11 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 1: and outright hacks that have plagued the platform. A recent 12 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 1: hack in August drained more than seven thousand crypto wall 13 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 1: it's tied to the Salona blockchain. But despite these challenges, 14 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 1: interest in Salana remains high, so high, in fact, that 15 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 1: there's now a real life retail location at a mall 16 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 1: in New York City. So I'm at the front of 17 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:18,959 Speaker 1: the Salanta store. The first thing I've really noticed there's 18 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 1: a stick at the very bottom the ce Salana pay 19 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,679 Speaker 1: accepted here. It really looks like you've ever been to 20 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 1: a mall and seen an Apple store or a um 21 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:32,039 Speaker 1: like an Xbox store where they sell technology. It looks 22 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: like one of those stories, but it's crypto. So it's 23 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:39,039 Speaker 1: called Salana, Spaces and Bloomberg reports Emmanuel. John Milton went 24 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 1: to the mall to check it out. Manuel, thank you 25 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: so much for joining us in the studio here in 26 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 1: New York today. Of course, it's it's a pleasure to 27 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 1: be here. Let's start with what is Salano. So Salana 28 00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 1: is a blockchain and on applock chain, slant offer is 29 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 1: and f T s um. They have their own token 30 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: and they also have smart contracts that people can use. 31 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:11,239 Speaker 1: So you went to this mall, you went to Hudson 32 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 1: Yards for Salana, which is a blockchain. Why does a 33 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 1: blockchain need a store? So crypto is very ethereal to 34 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:23,399 Speaker 1: many people. It's something that isn't easy to understand. It's 35 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: something that even if you understand, you're not sure if 36 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: you understand. So for many people, having someone walk you 37 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 1: through that process might be really helpful. This is somewhere 38 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: where someone who is new to crypto can walk in 39 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,919 Speaker 1: and really see what Salanta is trying to build. That's 40 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 1: kind of the idea behind Salanta's store to have a 41 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: big Salana logo in the middle, with three bars for 42 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 1: their logo out a little stations. It looks like you 43 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 1: can do tutorials on them as well as just merchandise, 44 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 1: so like hats ole, like Fannie packs, almost jackets. But 45 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,080 Speaker 1: it's not a store that's run by the sal on 46 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 1: a blockchain itself for the Slanta Foundation itself. Right, this 47 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 1: is somebody who's affiliated or like part of that ecosystem, 48 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: but not the developer, So they're not they're independently operated 49 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: and they receive funding from the Slanta Foundation. And how 50 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,639 Speaker 1: they do that is they have grants that they give out. 51 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 1: So the actual Spaces store is not run by the 52 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 1: Slana Foundation, but it's run instead by Slant of Spaces, 53 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 1: who's an independent operator. Got it. This sounds to me 54 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 1: like kind of like an Apple store in the sense 55 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: of a lot of you know, Apple's retail experience isn't 56 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 1: only about here's an iPhone, here's a watch. It's also 57 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 1: about we're going to teach you how to use our 58 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: very expensive and fancy equipment. But in the meantime, we'll 59 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: teach you how to droll, or we'll teach you how 60 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: to do photography. Is it, Like, is that the kind 61 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 1: of educational experience? Like what did you do one? Like? 62 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 1: What was that? Like? So, there's a couple of tutorials 63 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 1: they have and if you complete the tutorials, you get USDC, 64 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: which is a digital stable coin that's packed to the 65 00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: US dollar. So how many like how much money are 66 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 1: you really getting? It's to USDC? Two yes. And I 67 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: talked to the CEO of Salanta Spaces and he said 68 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 1: that they had a thousand tutorials that were completed, and 69 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 1: that's a lot of a lot of people. And and 70 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: he said that a lot of the people, like the 71 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 1: people that came in, the only crypto things that they 72 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:22,359 Speaker 1: might have would be those USDC or the n f 73 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 1: T s that they might win from going in. So um, 74 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 1: the guy that started the store is someone that has 75 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: retail experiences, a veteran, and he's like when I was 76 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:36,159 Speaker 1: talking to him, he basically was saying that I like, 77 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: they designed it for this. They they're like store designers, 78 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 1: and that's kind of the way they came into it. 79 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,039 Speaker 1: They were they said that They were new to crypto UM, 80 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: but not new to like a story detail experience exact. 81 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: It was it full when you went, like how many 82 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 1: people were there? So I went twice. I went there 83 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 1: the first time. Sometimes when you come in as a 84 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 1: reporter that people look at you differently, So I thought 85 00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 1: it could be fun to just go with my friends 86 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 1: and just observed and see what I saw. So I 87 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: went on Saturday, I think that weekend. The opening week 88 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,039 Speaker 1: ended up on Thursday. I went on Saturday and it 89 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: was full. There's people are everywhere in the store. There 90 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: were Sauna, spaces ambassadors, who are people that are just 91 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: in the store. You can kind of think of like 92 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: the people at the age were they what were they wearing? 93 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 1: Were very cool, very cool lacture, its um sauna, the 94 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 1: Space store has a lot of cool merch. So I 95 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: went in there and I was with my friends, were 96 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: just walking around looking at tutorials. They have murals on 97 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 1: the wall that can display n f T s and 98 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:35,039 Speaker 1: also just normal pictures which is interesting UM. And then 99 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: they had a visualization of the sawna Blockshane in action. 100 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:42,280 Speaker 1: So that's another example of Salanna saying, Hey, I know 101 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: that this is hard to understand, let's bring this to 102 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 1: someone exactly, let's show you. And and then I went 103 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 1: on Tuesday morning with your reporter, had on with my reporter, 104 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:59,480 Speaker 1: had on favorite movies. Okay, the reporting of the recording. 105 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 1: We talked, and that time there were two people that 106 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,679 Speaker 1: came through. The store was there for four years. Minutes 107 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,479 Speaker 1: right after it opened. It was pretty empty that morning. 108 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:13,919 Speaker 1: And then right after that happened. Interestingly enough, the the 109 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: Salana hack happened that morning. And the CEO that of 110 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 1: slat Space that I was talking to you about earlier, 111 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: he said he he was worried that I was in 112 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: there asking people about the hack, and he's like, these 113 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: people don't know anything about crypto. And I can kind 114 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 1: of see his point because he's like, these people are customers, 115 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: were really new. He doesn't want them to be scared 116 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 1: off by oh my gosh, I put my money on 117 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 1: this fall out now it's all gone. Well, that's interesting. 118 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,600 Speaker 1: So when when we're talking about the Salana hack, because 119 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: there's a lot of hacks, so I feel like every 120 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:42,919 Speaker 1: week I'm like, this is the specific hack we're referring to. 121 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 1: It was, you know, nearly eight thousand wallets, so kind 122 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: of like your bank account for crypto were compromised and 123 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,919 Speaker 1: totally drained. And these were wallets that were linked to 124 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: the Salana blockchain. But it's interesting to hear you say 125 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 1: that the CEO was worried people would get booked because 126 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: bad things happen in krypto, but actually, yeah, bad things 127 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 1: definitely happened in crypto, and it is that part of 128 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: the educational experience that they're offering, like are they helping 129 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 1: people understand the risks? From what I saw, it wasn't 130 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: about risk. It was more about, hey, let's learn this. 131 00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 1: Look at all these cool new things. So was there 132 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: anybody you know when you were talking to these ambassadors, 133 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: was there anybody that you kind of talk to about 134 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: Merged or any of the other things that you're describing. Yes. 135 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: So when we walked through the store, there's a Slanta 136 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: Spased ambassador named Cameron Survey. What's going on? My name 137 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 1: is Camera Manuel And he was great, what do you 138 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: think the most popular item is here to buy for someone? 139 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 1: People just love love the swag the n F team 140 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: Merged like the DJ and APE Academy stuff that we 141 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 1: have and are they're really good at figuring out what 142 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: customers might want, and that's probably the appeal of that 143 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: store and why Salana because they have to differentiate from 144 00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 1: an ethereum from bitcoin, and that seems to be a 145 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: way to do it. It's a it's a really good 146 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 1: way for Salana to just see their product out in 147 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: the real world. A lot of companies don't get to 148 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: do that, and like, for example, if you get it 149 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 1: taken home, you don't like, you have no idea how 150 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 1: that customer might interact with it. But they're they're just 151 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: watching these people do these tutorials. If someone keeps getting 152 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: hung up on the same part of a certain tutorial, 153 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: then they're like, oh, this is something that's really confusing 154 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 1: for people. So this is a definitely a great opportunity 155 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: for Salana to look into what people are struggling with 156 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: and it kind of just ties in with their theme 157 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,319 Speaker 1: of being close to the customers. It's a vote we're 158 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: just here to reach out to people and break down 159 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: that barrier because being in front of the screen sometimes 160 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 1: it is a little intimidating when it's the deep, deep 161 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: dark web. Right coming up, you'll hear more from Bloomberg 162 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 1: Reports to Emmanuel John Milton about Salana's I r L 163 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: strategy and whether we'll see more of these kinds of 164 00:08:50,040 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 1: stores representing digital asset firms cropping up in the future. So, 165 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,200 Speaker 1: you know, one of the things you've really emphasized is 166 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 1: the like educational elements. People come there, they make a 167 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: couple of books, they learn some stuff. Is this also 168 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: a way for you know, the CEO and the folks 169 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 1: behind the store and perhaps tangentially the Salona Foundation to 170 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 1: do some market research on customers for sure? So we 171 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 1: spoke with Salanta employee Anna Un who was in the store, 172 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: and she works for strategy and the payments team at 173 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 1: Salanta Labs, which is part of the Sana ecosystem. I've 174 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 1: been observing for the day. I think it's pretty nice 175 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: that people get to learn about a WHAT three company 176 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 1: and an in real life. And she was there just 177 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 1: collecting research about people. She was talking about what she 178 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: was seeing, what people engaged with. People showed up super 179 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 1: excited about Salana. So a lot of people probably came 180 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: here because they knew about us. Um I would say 181 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: fifty fifty I write down like how people interact. I 182 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 1: sometimes go up to them and asking, how do you 183 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: do you have any feedback for the tutorial for the station, like, 184 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 1: do you have any questions? And I the most interesting 185 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 1: thing is I've been a couple of Salona activation about. 186 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 1: As well as speaking with Anna, I also spoke with 187 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 1: CEO of Sauna Spaces, the Boon Rby, and he said 188 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 1: that the company plans to open spaces all over the world. 189 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 1: And he said, with a certainty, there's another space opening. 190 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 1: Even if you're not trying to get into the crypto space. 191 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 1: Sauna Spaces offers people the opportunity to walk in and 192 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 1: just experience crypto and learn about it. Even if you're 193 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 1: not taking necessarily any financial risk with this. You're just 194 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 1: going in and just checking it out. The thing that 195 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 1: they don't tell you, though, is about the possibility that 196 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:47,679 Speaker 1: you'll get hacked and lose all your money. Correct if 197 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 1: if you do those tutorials that you the two s 198 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,439 Speaker 1: TC far you have to open up a platform wallet, 199 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 1: and I don't think those have been hacked, but it's 200 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,679 Speaker 1: definitely a risk that you have to account for. And 201 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,959 Speaker 1: this is, you know, I think very much a criticism 202 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 1: that folks have levied against crypto companies at all levels, 203 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: which is they're very happy to tell you about the benefits. 204 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: But it's like you know, pharmaceutical advertising, where maybe in 205 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: really tiny print at the end or somebody reading super 206 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: fast in the commercial will be like may cause death. 207 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 1: Which is not to say that crypto is you know, 208 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,679 Speaker 1: going to cause death imminent or otherwise. But I do 209 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:27,319 Speaker 1: think it's a missing piece in some of these conversations. 210 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:30,599 Speaker 1: Is this idea of making sure that people really understand 211 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 1: the risks as well as any potential benefits of what 212 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 1: they're getting into. Well, thank you very much for joining 213 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: us today, Manual. It's been a pleasure having you on 214 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: the show.

Personal relationships are often key in 223 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,719 Speaker 1: bringing new people into crypto, and that's especially true when 224 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,440 Speaker 1: the market is doing well, but what happens when the 225 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:25,959 Speaker 1: market shift and people start losing money.
