The Bitcoin Podcast

This week we chat a bit about the Bitcoin 'Breakthrough' which claims block size increase is possible without hard fork. Some dub it a "breakthrough," others call it a "network attack." In addition we chat about the Czech Republic (Prague) being at the top in the world with the number of (CryptoATM's per Inhabitants). Oh, and SOulja Boy's new bitcoin song. Spoiler alert: It's garbage! For our guest, we are incredibly excited to welcome Alena Vranova back to the show as Head of Strategy and Business Development for Casa. Alena is best known as the co-founder of SatoshiLabs and Trezor. She served as CEO of SatoshiLabs for 4 years, where they brought the first widely successful bitcoin hardware wallet to market. She is, quite frankly, a legend in the crypto space and we couldn’t be happier to learn from her this episode.

In this episode of Creating a Humanist Blockchain Future, Rhys interview Daniel Schmachtenberger, the co-founder of Neurohacker Collective. They chat about meta existential risk. Enjoy!

Today we have the pleasure of interviewing Iuri Matias of Embark Framework. Embark is a decentralized application framework that abstracts away the implementation details of specific technologies, allowing dapp developers to focus on what really matters, the experience. We talk about the features of Embark, the design decisions of the framework, and how Embark will integrate new technologies into their systems as they develop.

It's been a good three years since we joins us for a conversation and we play catch up as we ask him various questions about his stance in this crypto space, and his humanitarian efforts - post Maria. Hurricane Maria was one of the worst natural disasters in US history, devastating the island of Puerto Rico and destroying the entire power grid. Cryptocurrency entrepreneurs have been storming in, promising they have the technology to rebuild. Brock is leading the charge and we get the scoop!
