Today I’m speaking with Sascha Götz, co-founder and director of Rootstock Collective, an organization that opens up a new world of possibilities.
Built on Bitcoin, Rootstock Collective explores how we can coordinate in new ways using DAOs, Decentralized Autonomous Organizations, smart contracts, and blockchain infrastructure.
But what does all of that really mean? How does it work? What does it make possible?
That’s exactly what we dive into.
