We also address real world issues such as regulatory, legal, and business revenue aspects of the budding nascent tech that is taking the world by storm. Decentralization is just a buzzword. Get the real word, you capitalist!

This week we talk about blockchain storage, risk free interest rates, economic use of proof of work, and Kleiman vs Wright

This week we talk about the upcoming court cases of alleged Bitcoin inventor Craig Wright, their potential effects on the blockchain industry, BTC prices, and possible motivations behind the legal actions. It is quite fitting that it is all going to go down in November...
