Tezos: Why On-Chain Governance Matters?


Listen Later

In this podcast episode, Nicolas Ochem, a Tezos core developer and founder of Midl.Dev explains the upcoming Oxford upgrade and the concept of adaptive issuance in the Tezos ecosystem. Ochem contrasts Tezos' on-chain governance approach to off-chain methods used in protocols like Bitcoin and Ethereum. He also discusses how adaptive issuance aims to optimize validator incentives and improve the protocol's security. He provides insight into Tezos' thoughts on liquidity, the scalability of blockchains, and the role of rollups in scaling solutions. The interview also touches on subjects such as tokenomics, the impact of AI on blockchain development, and the future of blockchain adoption.
