Tobin Harding takes us behind the scenes of his coding journey in Episode 30. Tobin conveys the profound impact of this collaborative ethos on his approach to development. We also tackle the critical role of the kernel, the correlation between hardware and software, drawing attention to the necessity for durable, high-quality code.

Our conversation culminates in a thought-provoking exploration of Bitcoin's future, including its scalability and complexity. The million-dollar question arises: Can Bitcoin achieve widespread adoption without overwhelming users with its technicalities, akin to the seamless use of the internet? Pierre and Tobin debate the delicate balance between sophisticated features and maintainability, touching upon the importance of trust in Bitcoin's cryptographic fortitude and the potential for custodial services to cater to diverse user preferences.
