This founder skipped college, tried to buy Germany, and claims to be building immortality! On this episode of The Jest Business, Paddy and I sit down with “Samrat Chakravarti,” the so-called serial entrepreneur behind EtherChain. He tells us how his startup plans to turn human memories into NFTs, why making losses is a badge of honour, and why he hires only people with no experience. From SPACs to Rafael Nadal’s forehand, his journey is a hilarious take on the world of startups, venture capital, and AI in business. If you’re curious about startup culture, entrepreneurship, and the absurd side of tech founders, this episode will keep you laughing all the way!
