The recent DigiTalk Episode 19 podcast brought together Web3 founders and builders from SUEDE AI, BitDoctorAI, Alphakek AI, and CipherBC for an in-depth discussion on “Voices of Web3 Founders and the Next Big Things.” We’ll dive into what they’re building, how they’re approaching a constantly shifting space, and what they think is coming next. Expect real insights, not buzzwords, just a closer look at the people shaping what’s next in Web3.
Q1: Can you start by giving an overview of your project?
SUEDE AI
Suede AI started as a generative AI tool that turns simple sentences into music. Over time, the platform evolved into a broader suite to empower artists both on-chain and off-chain. It now includes an AI distribution agent and a launchpad that enables musicians to create “tax tokens,” letting them earn income upfront while maintaining fan alignment.
Their mission is to support artists in monetizing creativity earlier than traditional platforms like Spotify, where royalty payments are often delayed 12–18 months. Web3 gives them a fairer, faster model to build self-sustaining creative careers.
BitDoctorAI
BitDoctorAI is a deep tech health platform using smartphone cameras (CMOS sensors) to scan users’ faces and detect 30+ non-communicable disease indicators, including blood pressure and stroke risk, in under a minute.
With over 180,000 users, they reward participation and data contribution through token incentives. Their roadmap includes launching premium features and partnering with medical centers for real-world healthcare integration.
Alphakek AI
AlphaKeK is an AI infrastructure layer for agentic commerce in Web3. It provides custom AI models, meme generation engines, and data pipelines that serve traders, degens, and partner protocols.
They’ve worked with major communities like Pudgy Penguins and Virtuals, and recently presented their tech at NVIDIA’s GTC. Their platform helps projects analyze market signals, generate cultural content, and automate cross-ecosystem collaboration.
CipherBC
CipherBC develops MPC (Multi-Party Computation) based wallets, a cryptographically secure alternative to multisig wallets. Their core product is a secure, scalable infrastructure layer supporting hardware wallets and Wallet-as-a-Service APIs.
Unlike multisig, which relies on smart contracts, MPC is chain-agnostic and offers better protection against fraud, social engineering, and human error. Their aim is to make “trustless” key management a seamless reality.
Q2: How has your vision or strategy evolved in response to recent market shifts such as the Bitcoin ETF momentum, memecoin resurgence, or the growing interest in AI and MEME narratives?
SUEDE AI
Suede AI maintains a philosophy of “substance over sentiment.” Rather than pivot toward short-lived trends, they focus on building tools that solve real problems for creators. The rise of AI and memecoins only reaffirms their direction—AI can empower musicians, and Web3 tools can help them monetize meaningfully.
They view shifts like the Bitcoin ETF or meme booms as macro waves that create more visibility but don't dictate their core product decisions. Their commitment is to long-term artist enablement, not hype chasing.
BitDoctorAI
BitDoctor sees trend cycles as external noise—they’ve stayed focused on health access from the beginning. Their product roadmap continues based on medical utility, not market sentiment.
That said, AI adoption has validated their approach. They're integrating more advanced diagnostics, training their AI model with mobile user data, and exploring integration with real-world care providers as a natural next step.
Alphakek AI
AlphaKeK’s strategy is to observe what’s invariant in each cycle—tools, liquidity discovery, and data demand—and build around that. They’ve aligned their growth with broader AI narratives, integrating meme tooling and alpha extraction engines across different communities.
They don’t chase trends but evolve infrastructure to fit them. Their data layers and agents now include crypto-native intelligence (e.g., 4chan alpha mining, Avalanche data parsing), positioning them to thrive as cycles shift.
CipherBC
CipherBC’s core hasn't changed—they focus on long-term cryptographic security. While AI and memes dominate narratives, they remain anchored in solving the permanent problem of wallet vulnerability.
They see hypes as moments, but trust as a compounder. Their response to trends is to build stronger infrastructure that adapts to new chains while maintaining their security-first stance.
Q3: With new hype cycles constantly emerging, from Telegram bots to celebrity meme coins, how do you stay grounded and focused on building long-term value beyond the noise?
SUEDE AI
Suede has tested campaigns using platforms like Zealy and Galxe but found user retention to be far more valuable than reach. Airdrop farmers come and go, but artists looking to build careers with AI tools tend to stay.
Their shift now is toward onboarding creators who need music monetization and AI distribution support. That means simplifying access, improving education, and building a Web3 bridge for musicians unfamiliar with crypto.
BitDoctorAI
BitDoctor avoids broad hype plays. Instead, they align with targeted communities that resonate with health—like partnering with STEPN. This gives them users who ask meaningful questions and actively want to use the product.
Their belief is that meaningful campaigns are built by knowing your audience. Incentives follow education and trust, not the other way around. They turn curiosity into commitment through premium tools and real utility.
Alphakek AI
AlphaKeK blocks out noise by identifying where user needs persist. They see meme culture and alpha hunting as enduring pillars, and they build tools that help both.
Their engagement strategy centers on partnerships with other communities. By delivering real value—e.g., meme models or data bots—they turn temporary attention into a longer-term relationship. They view retention as product-led, not marketing-led.
CipherBC
CipherBC sees hype as a vulnerability. Their approach is to build infrastructure that protects users from themselves and attackers, regardless of what narrative is trending.
Features like panic PINs, transaction warning prompts, and location-triggered wallet freezing offer users peace of mind. These aren’t sexy features, but they’re essential. Long-term value comes from long-term protection.
Q4: As ecosystems like Solana, Sui, and Base gain traction with strong community and tooling support, what kind of Layer 1 or partner backing has been most impactful for your growth so far?
SUEDE AI
Their partnership with LayerZero was a game-changer. It unlocked seamless multichain access and allowed them to integrate with Base, Solana, Aptos, and beyond. Each chain brings different users and tools—for example, Solana’s compressed NFTs allow more dynamic music releases.
They’re building artist-friendly experiences using the best of each Layer 1—whether for distribution, minting, or fan engagement. Base also opens doors into agentic protocols and on-chain AI collaborations.
BitDoctorAI
BitDoctor doesn’t rely on Layer 1 chains directly, but they’re keeping an eye on blockchain integrations for medical records, health data NFTs, and tokenized rewards.
Their strength lies in hardware + AI + reward incentives, but they can plug into any chain once interoperability becomes necessary—for example, when issuing health-based credentials.
Alphakek AI
AlphaKeK’s infrastructure is multichain by nature. They started with meme coin projects, built custom bots, and gradually integrated Avalanche data and other real-time ecosystems.
Their goal isn’t to favor one Layer 1, but to create a data and tool layer that spans all of them. Chains are pipelines for user data, and their AI agents evolve as ecosystems grow.
CipherBC
CipherBC’s MPC system is virtual machine-agnostic. They don’t rely on smart contracts, which gives them a huge advantage when adapting to new chains.
Wherever there’s growth—Solana, Base, Sui—they can move quickly. Security is their offering, and they ensure users are protected regardless of the Layer 1's specifics.
Q5: In a space where every week brings a new meta—whether it’s DePIN, restaking, or on-chain AI agents—what is your project doing differently that you believe will still matter a year from now?
SUEDE AI
Suede is building an AI-driven distribution network to help artists promote and monetize their music more effectively. These AI agents analyze music, detect potential virality, and automatically distribute tracks to suitable platforms and audiences.
This system empowers artists to focus on creating while automation handles the backend. As AI continues to evolve, Suede believes their role as an artist growth engine—especially for non-crypto-native musicians—will only become more relevant.
BitDoctorAI
BitDoctor is scaling beyond diagnostics. While currently focused on scanning health metrics via smartphones, they’re preparing to integrate with real-world medical centers.
Their long-term vision is to build a decentralized health platform where early AI-powered detection leads directly to affordable treatment. This link between digital diagnosis and real-world care gives them both purpose and staying power.
Alphakek AI
AlphaKeK is moving from one-on-one AI integrations toward building a full agentic mesh network. Their upcoming Meme Gateway Protocol connects tools, meme tokens, and protocols into an intelligent agent ecosystem.
Instead of building isolated use cases, they’re creating synergy between projects so agents can share data, liquidity, memes, and even user base. This cross-protocol interoperability will be foundational for next-gen AI-native crypto infrastructure.
CipherBC
CipherBC believes that as the ecosystem embraces agentic computing and DePIN, execution security will become more important. Their MPC wallets will play a core role in authorizing transactions for AI agents or autonomous devices.
Features like emergency PINs and GPS-triggered account freezes also show foresight into protecting users both digitally and physically—making their wallet infrastructure indispensable as Web3 grows.
Q6: Beyond token price and social buzz, especially in a cycle dominated by short attention spans and volatile inflows, how do you measure meaningful progress and product-market fit?
SUEDE AI
Suede ran campaigns on Zealy and Galxe but quickly noticed the engagement drop-off. Since then, they've shifted toward creator-centric growth. Musicians who actually need AI tools and Web3 income options are more likely to stick around.
They’re also optimizing for non-crypto users—offering simplified onboarding and AI-powered music workflows to help new artists build income, community, and confidence in Web3.
BitDoctorAI
BitDoctor avoids broad airdrops and instead targets aligned communities like STEPN. These users care about health, own Web3 assets, and engage meaningfully.
They build retention through feature utility—real health diagnostics, AI updates, and reward mechanics that align with usage. In their view, loyalty comes from value, not speculation.
Alphakek AI
AlphaKeK builds stickiness through functional partnerships. Every model or tool they release is tailored to community needs. Instead of farming hype, they create on-chain memes, alpha bots, and strategy tools that users integrate into daily routines.
Their recent success has come from integrating partner data into meme generators and agent networks. Once users realize the tools actually help them trade or create better, they stay.
CipherBC
CipherBC converts short-term interest into long-term trust by educating users on wallet safety. They teach users to detect phishing attacks, avoid fake addresses, and set up emergency protocols.
Rather than pushing campaigns, they focus on resilience. Every user they retain is someone who understands the value of self-custody and security—a demographic that rarely churns.
Q7: If your project succeeds, how do you see it contributing to the larger Web3 landscape—whether that’s advancing decentralization, expanding real-world use cases, or redefining how AI, gaming, or finance interact with blockchain?
SUEDE AI
Suede wants to decentralize music publishing. If successful, they’ll empower artists to bypass traditional gatekeepers and launch fully on-chain music careers supported by fans and AI agents.
They also aim to make Web3 more accessible to creatives outside the space. By simplifying entry and offering real monetization, Suede could help bring the next million musicians into blockchain.
BitDoctorAI
BitDoctor sees itself as a healthcare revolution—bringing decentralized diagnostics to people with limited access to doctors. If successful, they’ll turn Web3 from a trading venue into a health utility.
They’re also exploring tokenized health data that protects user privacy while enabling new insurance and treatment models. It’s a big vision, but one grounded in real-world need.
Alphakek AI
AlphaKeK aims to reshape how crypto culture operates—replacing fragmented dashboards and Discord alpha with intelligent agents that understand meme cycles, trading data, and partner dynamics.
They believe they can make intelligence and virality programmable. If successful, they’ll democratize alpha discovery, make meme tools accessible, and unify communities across chains.
CipherBC
CipherBC will power secure Web3 identity, especially as agents, AI wallets, and smart devices begin to transact on behalf of users. If they succeed, every on-chain action will be verifiable, recoverable, and safe.
Their goal is to become the security spine for the decentralized future—ensuring freedom doesn’t come at the cost of safety.
