#53 What the "World Computer" Vision Got Wrong About Blockchains - Muneeb Ali (Blockstack)


Listen Later

Blockstack set out to decentralize the internet in 2013, and now the Harvard Endowment-backed startup is expecting to issue the first SEC-registered token offering. Co-founder Muneeb Ali and I touch on:

  • How much decentralization is enough?
  • Balancing UI/UX and decentralization
  • Is Ethereum's "wold computer" vision possible?
  • Do dapps have to be smart contracts?
  • Blockstack's recent SEC filing
