Laura Shin:
So, how does Brave work?
Brendan Eich:
So, browsers, for a long time, just were sort of the user’s agent in the software sense, that they would do whatever you said, when you clicked on a link or opened a new tab, but I created JavaScript, and even before that, with cookies and images, there were ways to track you. So, what happened over time is the system of surveillance evolved, kind of unplanned, based on these fundamental building blocks, the cookie, the image, and JavaScript, and if you don’t block those by default, you’re not just a user agent as a browser. You’re sort of a blind servant of the advertising tracking system.
So, Brave blocks all that stuff. That’s important. We don’t want the default to be tracked and in danger, under a threat. So, tracking by default is complex, because there’s no formal grammar in the web standards that says, here is the web standard for viewing a web page without being tracked, and here is the technology for being tracked, and you can just block that cleanly. It’s much more subtle. It involves all sorts of variations on themes. It cannot, in fact, be formalized in such a clean way, because there are always ways across a network to track somebody if you’re determined enough to do so, but what we have today is such a permissive system that there’s tons of ways to track, and fortunately for Brave, there are lots of ways to defend.
Other, I would say, browsers are starting to do this. For a long time, the only real protection came from browser extensions. So, Firefox pioneered the extension model for browsers, and then other browsers did their own versions of it, and Chrome’s became predominant because of Chrome’s market power. And so, people can use extensions like uBlock Origin, which we think very highly of, or adblocking extensions, some of which don’t block tracking well at all. There are some, like Ghostery and Disconnect, that are more about tracking protection as well.

Laura had an idea to do a crypto show for her normie friends, and figured she’d release it over the holidays, when maybe her regular listeners would be with the very people in their lives who could benefit from such an episode. She says "I solicited questions from my own real-life friends, edited down the repeats and tried my best to make the explanations as simple as possible. I cover basic explanations of Bitcoin, blockchain and Ethereum, plus we go into questions around mining and electricity usage, and why anyone would use cryptocurrency. I hope this clears things up for some of your friends and family — and gets some of them to go down the crypto rabbit hole."

From https://unchainedpodcast.com/christopher-giancarlo-on-the-craziness-of-becoming-crypto-dad/
Former CFTC chairman Christopher Giancarlo talks about how his experience of the financial crisis piqued his interest in blockchain technology, why the CFTC thought the introduction of Bitcoin futures would help pop the 2017 Bitcoin bubble, and how “there’s no simple answer” to explain when a token goes from being a security to a commodity. He discusses why he believes there needs to be a “refresh” of regulations written decades ago that are difficult to apply in a digital world, why he thinks Libra represents a fundamental generational change and why he thinks the project should be allowed to go forward. We also cover the Chinese digital yuan, why the USD should not assume that its global dominance today will translate into global dominance tomorrow, and his own proposal for a digital dollar, which he dubs “Zelle + JPMorgan Coin.” Plus, he gives the behind-the-scenes look at why he decided to speak “as a dad” in the Congressional hearing that made him an overnight crypto celebrity.
