I first met Derrick Washington in 2014. I was living in Boston during a tumultuous moment in American history. In Ferguson, Michael Brown had just been murdered. The ubiquity of smartphones was waking the public to the fact that his death was no isolated event. Eric Garner. Tamir Rice. Rekia Boyd.

Minted begins inside the living room of Mike Winkelmann, better known as the artist Beeple. Surrounded by friends and family, he’s watching as an NFT of his now iconic piece "Everydays: the First 5000 Days" is auctioned by Christie’s for an astounding $69.3 million.

“The first time I ever found Bitcoin, I think it was worth two hundredths of a penny,” he told me. “I tried to borrow my school's supercomputer to mine it, which would have quadrupled the hashrate of the network at the time.

Welcome to The Beat, Decential’s weekly exploration of music, culture and the new Internet. On the culture-tech byway, things move at breakneck speeds. From web3 to AI, copyright to collective ownership, art to psychedelics, The Beat is an exercise in association. We all contain multitudes, and within them, vast differences. But there is some connective, fundamental essence to be found. The Beat is dedicated to that essence, and to the people who seek it; the rest, as Alex Ross wrote, is noise.
