Ep. 182 Burnt Banksy Returns: Verona, AI Agents, and the Fight to Prove What’s Real

In this episode of Crypto Mavericks, we sit down with Anthony Anzalone, better known as Burnt Banksy, founder and CEO of Verona. After making global headlines with the Banksy NFT burn in 2021, Anthony went on to build XION, which has now evolved into Verona: a verified information layer for AI agents.

We discuss the evolution from digital ownership to digital verification, why AI agents need trusted private data, and Verona’s mission to “verify once, reuse everywhere, expose nothing.” This conversation explores what trust, privacy, and proof could look like in the next era of the internet.
