This episode of the #citizenweb3 podcast features Deborah Simpier about networking technology, Althea blockchain, mesh networks and how these affect our daily lives. We also discuss controversial topics, such as, freedom and the cost and quality of an internet connection. Can internet access become a lifesaver? And, learn about, Deborah's personal ‘radio in the blood’ feeling.

Althea is built for a fast and affordable, locally run internet. Althea's unique cooperative vision for the internet brings peering from the data center to the field. Empowering communities to build multi-stakeholder networks faster and more affordably than legacy telecom models. The core technology behind Althea is a price-aware routing protocol and blockchain-based payment system that debits and credits funds based on a router’s bandwidth usage.

This episode of the #citizenweb3 podcast features Chris Remus from Chainflow & Staking defense. We discuss the differences between operators and validators, their role and importance in the ecosystem and why it's uber important to decentralize staking power. We talk about the monetary cost of freedom, product management in the validation business and about decentralized projects in general.

Chainflow believes in a decentralized future. They are optimistic that decentralization will decentralize power. That centralization of power causes many of the world’s biggest problems and that decentralization results in a fairer distribution of power, wealth, and opportunity. The Chainflow Staking Systems are a contribution toward manifesting a decentralized future.

This episode of the #citizenweb3 podcast features Tor Bair from Secret Network. The episode contains plenty of secrets, just make sure to pay attention. We talk about privacy, trust, Amazon drones, privacy by design and learn how to lay out the foundation for privacy projects. We go to depth about more technical things, such as, privacy preserving smart contracts, transactional privacy vs programmable privacy and learn how to get involved in Secret Network for those who are interested.

Secret Network is a first-of-its-kind, open-source blockchain that provides data privacy by default. Secret is a decentralized network that solves the problem of privacy, helping to secure and scale the decentralized web. As the first blockchain to support encrypted inputs, encrypted outputs, and encrypted state for smart contracts, Secret Network allows for new kinds of powerful decentralized applications to be built. This can unlock substantial value across multiple verticals and industries.

This episode of the #citizenweb3 podcast features Billy Rennekamp, the grants manager at Interchain Foundation and the founder of Clovers Network. In this episode we discuss ICF’s functions as a vehicle and its role for the greater Cosmos ecosystem. The DLT project we chat about is Clovers Network. We also talk about citizenship in the (not so) distant future, tattoo machines and blockchain DNA.

Interchain Foundation is pushing boundaries on distributed networks and organizations. It's mission is to research, develop, and promote open, decentralized, network technologies like Cosmos, that provide greater sovereignty, security, and sustainability to the world’s communities. With the task to participate in research, development, product, community and social good initiatives which align with the vision and mandate, as well as providing funding towards these projects. Their particular interest is the Cosmos Project, which is unique in its maturity, modularity, and the sovereignty it provides to respective networks.

This episode of the #citizenweb3 podcast features Harriet Cao. Harriet is the co-founder of Iris Network, Bianjie AI, and a member of the newly formed board of directors at Tendermint inc. We discuss how the Iris Hub helps to decentralize the Cosmos ecosystem. AI from the point of view of an expert with over 16 years of experience. And the specific requirements for blockchain projects in China. We also find out whether being an engineer is better than a doctor.

IRISnet (a.k.a IRIS Hub) is designed to be the foundation for the next generation distributed applications. Built with Cosmos-SDK, IRIS Hub enables cross-chain interoperability through a unified service model, while providing a variety of modules to support DeFi applications. IRIS Hub is designed to support not only token transfers across internet of blockchains, but also to allow consumption of data and computing resources across heterogenous systems mechanism, token economics, etc.)
