Earlier this week, I launched Unchained Premium, a subscription offering for the Unchained audience.

If you sign up, a premium subscription gives you access 🎟 to:

💬 premium-only channels in the Unchained Podcast Discord group

🎙 premium-only interviews

❓the opportunity to ask questions

⚖️ the chance to weigh in on Unchained

+ 🔮 future offerings

In this post, I'll break down what's offered in the premium subscription, and explain how, even if you don't subscribe, you can at least participate in the public channels on the Unchained Discord.

I'm so excited to launch the Discord group. I've long wanted to launch a chat group, but didn't have the bandwidth when I was heavily in book-writing mode. I look forward to hearing your feedback on the shows, and to discussing crypto news events with you.

👉 Join now! Here is the link to the public-only Unchained Podcast Discord. 👈

(This link works even for non-premium subscribers, although you will only have access to the public channels.)

If you don't have a Facebook account ...

A number of you have written to say that you don't have a Facebook account with which to access the premium subscription. If that describes you, you can join the premium Discord with all the private channels if you buy this NFT. It's about $30 in Polygon-based ETH for a year's subscription. However, this version of the subscription will be missing the premium-only interviews, which will go out via emails to Premium Bulletin subscribers. We will send out the link to join that way next week.

Regardless of how you access the Discord, once you get in, please introduce yourself! Tell us how you got into crypto, discuss recent news (last week's news involving Razzlekhan might be a fun topic), give us your thoughts on where the market is going, or weigh in on which crypto Super Bowl ads were your favorite. Plus, let us know what you thought about some of the recent episodes.

For a long while, I've done pre-interviews for projects to get on Unchained -- and now I'd like to share them with you! There are many more interesting projects, people and topics in crypto than I have slots on Unchained every year, so here's how you can enjoy even more of the conversations I have with my sources, reserved just for premium subscribers.

The first premium-only interview was with Kevin Owocki, of Gitcoin fame, who has a new book out, "Greenpilled: How Crypto Can Regenerate the World."It came out Wednesday and is an awesome chat.

Others that are in the works involve

  • ⛏ Bitcoin mining

  • 🎶 music NFTs

  • 🌉 cross-chain bridges

  • 💸 crypto quant trading

  • 👩🏻‍💻 working for a DAO

  • 🤖 artificially intelligent NFTs

  • 📈 Ethereum scaling

and more.

Premium members also get access to special AMAs ("ask me anything" sessions) with show guests and other sources.

To launch, we'll have an AMA with the guests of Tuesday's Unchained, Shehan Chandrasekera, CPA and head of strategy at CoinTracker, and John Cardone, senior director at Washington National Tax RSM US LLP. John was formerly the crypto tax person at the IRS.

📅 Premium subscribers can ask them tax questions today, Friday, February 18, at 12pm ET/9amPT.

If you are a premium subscriber, go ahead and pre-submit some questions in the "guest-AMAs" channel.

There are only about 100 slots a year, and sooo much happens in crypto that it's sometimes hard figuring out who or what topics should be covered on the show. Premium subscribers can weigh in with their own suggestions on what guests and topics to cover on the show! Even if not every suggestion makes it to the podcast, many of them could be good fodder for Unchained Premium.

Also, premium subscribers get to give their own recommendations for the group discussion and for the premium offering.

Premium subscribers also have an opportunity to get a signed book plate -- and a POAP!

Here’s how:

  1. 📚 Pre-order the book, which you can do at bit.ly/cryptopians.

  2. ✍ Make a social media post about the book that includes the pre-order link, bit.ly/cryptopians or to the book on any bookseller of your choice.

  3. 💌 Send a copy of your receipt to hello@unchainedpodcast.com with the subject line, “signed book plate.”

  4. 🧾 In the email, include a pdf of your receipt + a link to your social media post + the address to which you’d like me to send the book plate + the name of who you’d like me to dedicate the book plate to.

If you show a pre-order receipt that shows you bought more than one format of the book, such as an audiobook and a hardcover, you can get 🖋🖋 two signed book plates.

🌟 Those who sign up as a Bulletin premium subscriber and do all the above to get a signed book plate will receive a POAP.

To recap, sign up for Unchained Premium if you haven't yet, join the Discord, and see you in the Unchained Podcast Discord!
