BANKS

Welcome to your front-row seat to the world of Banks • Creator, community builder, and a voice you’ve probably heard on 𝕏. This is where I bring it all together: my story, my passions, and the communities I’m helping to shape in Web3.

If you’ve heard me on a late-night Spaces, scrolled past my posts on X, or just stumbled here out of curiosity, this is the place to get to know me better.

My Place in Web3 & Crypto

Web3 isn’t just where I spend my time, it’s where I build, connect, and grow with others. As co-host of State of the Trenches on the Crypto Spaces Network (CSN), I team up with RUU (@ruumeta) and Ty (@tymetax) every night to host conversations that bring people together.

For me, it’s not just about filling airtime, it’s about creating a space where people can learn, share, and be part of something bigger. I see co-hosting as community building: keeping the energy alive, making sure new voices get heard, and sparking the kinds of discussions that help ideas spread.

I’ve always believed that Web3 grows through connection. Whether it’s networking in Spaces, helping someone new understand the culture, or just keeping the conversation moving, I focus on building bridges and keeping communities strong.

Banks Beyond Web3

Before crypto, before nightly Spaces, my story started with adventure. I grew up with a skateboard under my feet and a camera in my hand, always chasing the next shot, the next rooftop, the next experience. That curiosity pulled me into the world of urbex and extreme sports, where I learned to push limits and see the world from perspectives most people never would. Sometimes it got me into trouble, but it also shaped the way I look at life: always moving, always creating, always exploring.

Travel has been one of my biggest teachers. New places and new people keep me grounded, while giving me endless inspiration. Whether I’m capturing content or just taking in the view, I see travel as a reminder that growth happens when you step outside your comfort zone.

Of course, my biggest motivation is closer to home. I’m a dad, and that keeps me centered on what really matters. Everything I do, whether it’s building communities in Web3 or pushing myself creatively, comes back to setting an example: stay disciplined, stay curious, and keep growing.
