35 - Designing Ethereum | Vitalik Buterin

With Ethereum 2.0 on the horizon, we bring Vitalik Buterin back onto the podcast to discuss the 'why' behind many of the design choices of Ethereum 2.0

Why Proof of Stake? Why Sharding? 

We also go over what has been discovered and added between the 2015 launch of Ethereum 1.x, and where we are now, such as - EIP1559 - Rollups as well as Vitaliks view of a 'rollup centric Ethereum'

We also discuss the process going getting Ethereum 1 onboarded into Ethereum 2.0, as well as a rollup-round where we ask some quick questions!

'Rollup Centric Ethereum' blog post: https://ethereum-magicians.org/t/a-rollup-centric-ethereum-roadmap/4698

The Ownership Economy | Jesse Walden

Jesse Walden speaks about 'the ownership economy', in which value is returned to the producers via a protocol by compensation codified in its core.

YouTube, Facebook, Twitter are now extracting more than they are providing.

Can Ethereum and DeFi solve this? How can Ethereum host an internet-sized cooperative, like REI? How can token ownership create a larger tent, that can scale organizations past previous limits?

We also discuss Jesse's 3 theories for how crypto will be adopted, and which one he believes will come first:

- The people come, Bank the Unbanked! - The institutions come, WallStreet wants part of the global casino - The economy comes, non-financial apps create a “real economy"
