Watch on 3SpeakHey everyone, sorry, but I lost the keys to this account. Since it's an old Steem-era account, I don't have a recovery method, so I switched to a new account, @thedessertlinux.Please go follow my new account if you're still following this one.
Watch on 3SpeakIn this very special holiday edition of the Digital Cash Rundown, Kenn Bosak, Eléonore Blanc, and Naomi Brockwell join the podcast for over 2.5 hours of nonstop crypto chat. We cover the Ripple fiasco, why the company can expect repercussions from the SEC, and whether or not the SEC should even be doing this sort of thing to begin with. We cover the "self-hosted wallet" proposed crackdown, and non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and their dizzying use cases. We also cover holiday plans and how we will talk to friends and relatives about crypto. And a whole lot more.
Watch on 3SpeakAs we come up to another bull market with Bitcoin breaking new all-time highs, everyone is talking about how cryptocurrencies will go up in value. While this is probably the case, why is it? What is it about cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and others that makes them increase in value over time? I analyze a combination of factors and break it down so that even people unfamiliar with the field will have a good understanding.
Watch on 3SpeakLibertarians have been on the right side of history repeatedly, as market incentives and voluntary interactions have been shown time an time again to be more efficient than coercion and socialism. However, these same libertarians have failed miserably at getting the basic message of freedom and personal responsibility out to the masses so they can actually see widespread adoption. Why is this? How can we make the simple message of liberty easier to take seriously in public policy debates?
Watch on 3SpeakMark Mason joins the podcast to talk about all the exciting things going on at Dash at the end of 2020. We cover PR efforts, and how the old way of outbound PR is going away, and how the industry must adapt. We also cover marketing plans for 2021, including building an advertising "war chest" ahead of time to make sure Dash Platform, five years in the making, isn't missed by anyone.
Watch on 3SpeakNick Johnson of ENS (Ethereum Name Service) comes on the podcast to talk usernames in cryptocurrency, and some of the challenges of first-generation naming services in the industry that he seeks to overcome. We went over the ins and outs of how ENS works, and how it can adapt to issues facing Ethereum such as scaling. We also talk about future possibilities, and what kinds of naming contracts can exist.
