AI startups got $242 billion of investment capital in Q1 2026. Is this a bubble about to burst? Daria talks with Anna Magiera, Managing Director at ICLUB and an expert in private equity, venture capital, and angel syndicates.

Anna goes beyond the AI headline and breaks down the investment categories most people are sleeping on: real-world asset tokenization, privacy infrastructure, vertical AI tools, and an Arabic-language LLM.

The conversation also unpacks how angel syndicates are replacing traditional VCs for everyday investors, why a diversified portfolio of 20 startups matters more than chasing one unicorn, and what the CEE ecosystem gets right versus what it still gets wrong.

Most people assume their online activity is private. It isn't, and in Web3, the illusion runs even deeper.

In this episode, Daria sits down with Mykola Siusko, co-founder of Web3Privacy Now, a global non-commercial movement building the infrastructure for a truly private internet. Born in the post-Soviet world, shaped by pirate culture and digital activism, Mykola spent years inside the surveillance capitalism machine before deciding to dismantle it instead.

They get into the real meaning of privacy: not as a technical feature, but as a form of freedom. Why cypherpunk is having a mainstream moment in 2026. How AI agents running on your laptop can silently read your encrypted messages. Why sharing your emotional state with ChatGPT is riskier than you think. And why Mykola believes anyone, designers, writers, community managers, can be a privacy activist.

This is the first part of one of the most honest conversations about digital freedom you'll hear this year.
