Chris Dahmen, HyveDA - How Curiosity Turned a Helicopter Engineer into a Web3 Founder

From helicopter engineer to blockchain co-founder, Chris Dahmen’s journey is anything but typical. In this episode, Chris joins Jack to share how curiosity pulled him from the forests of Canada to the crypto hubs of China — and how that same curiosity now fuels his mission at HyveDA, a project redefining data infrastructure for Web3. They dive into what makes a great Head of Growth, how to break into crypto without a fancy degree, and why passion beats pedigree every time. It’s an honest, funny, and human look at the realities of building in the decentralised world.
