Before coming to the U.S., Jiajung Zeng lived in China and worked as a Product Manager for TikTok’s parent company, ByteDance. Jiajung worked specifically on the content moderation team that was heavily censored by the Chinese government. Jiajung tells the story of how content moderation actually works in China. He shares the hoops these Chinese tech companies must go through to even operate as a business. And towards the end of the conversation, Jiajung shares the overall sentiment of the people of China on content moderation and what they do about it. Ultimately the conversation converges on the topic of Ethereum, decentralization, and crypto writ large in China. This is a special Layer Zero as it shows a side of China many of us don’t typically get a chance to experience and it highlights the importance of crypto fundamentals. ------ 📣 Chainlink | Register for SmartCon 2022 with promo code “BANKLESS” https://bankless.cc/smartcon ------ 🚀 SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER: https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/ 🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST: http://podcast.banklesshq.com/ ------ BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: 🌱 LENS | ACCESS CODE: MINTME https://bankless.cc/Lens 🚀 ROCKET POOL | ETH STAKING https://bankless.cc/RocketPool ⚖️ ARBITRUM | SCALING ETHEREUM https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum 🦁 BRAVE | THE BROWSER NATIVE WALLET https://bankless.cc/Brave 🌉 JUNO | BRIDGE FIAT TO LAYER 2 https://bankless.cc/Juno ⚡️ ZKSYNC | THE LAYER 2 SCALING ENDGAME https://bankless.cc/zkSync ------ Topics Covered: 0:00 Intro 4:15 Jiajung Zeng’s Background 5:38 ByteDance Explained 8:30 ByteDance Content Moderation 11:11 Political Content Moderation 16:00 Moderation Resource Consumption 20:49 Consequences of Mistakes 22:47 Who is at Risk? 25:47 China’s Content Moderation Army 27:53 AI’s Role 31:35 Uyghurs & China 41:16 Dialect Suppression 43:53 Sentiment of the Chinese People 46:55 The Pushback 50:55 The Positives of China 53:54 Sentiment of the Future of China 57:32 Jiajung’s Ethereum Familiarity 59:47 ByteDance & Ethereum 1:01:52 Chinese People’s Thoughts on Crypto 1:03:11 China’s Crypto Scene 1:04:28 Jiajun’s Message to the Bankless Nation ------ Resources: Jiajung Zeng https://twitter.com/zengjiajun_eth ----- Not financial or tax advice.

Bryan Pellegrino is the co-founder and CEO of LayerZero Labs. LayerZero is an omnichain interoperability protocol that enables the realization of cross-chain applications with a low-level communication primitive — simply put, LayerZero enables more secure and affordable cross-chain activity. During the podcast, LayerZero announced it had raised a $135M round co-lead by Sequoia, a16z, and FTX. For someone who was likely receiving hundreds of congratulatory messages while recording, Bryan seemed wholly focused on the conversation at hand. Bryan has been in the crypto space since 2013, spent eight years as a professional poker player, and has started & sold multiple companies. When asked why he’s working on LayerZero, Bryan stated he likes working on hard problems. SPONSOR Season 2 of Not Boring Founders is sponsored by FTX US.

Dmitry Buterin joins David for the premiere of Layer Zero, a new Bankless podcast that explores the human side of Ethereum. Beneath the technological innovation and socioeconomic disruption happening in the DeFi space, there are human beings – really interesting, thoughtful, passionate human beings. Layer Zero is at the bottom of the economic stack: the people. For the debut episode, it only made sense to bring on Dmitry, father of Ethereum founder Vitalik. Topics include Vitalik’s youth, Soviet Russia, and universal consciousness, but they don’t stop there. How often does Dmitry check ETH Price? What’s his workout routine?
