Beyond Bitcoin - 7 - Trivial Issuance Of A Useful Asset

Adan Krellenstein, Counterparty co-founder and developer discusses OP_RETURN, proof of burn, other distribution methods, asset issuance, improvements to Bitcoin and the importance of the first mover advantage. Adam's great to talk to and in light of the increasingly important role that Counterparty is assuming in the user designated asset space, he's one of the guys on the pulse. Pity this interview is two months old. Still, an appropriately concise overview of the protocol that everyone is talking about.

Beyond Bitcoin - 5 - Delegates & Forgers

This weeks episode features Dan Larimer of Invictus Innovations discussing the shift from Proof Of Work to Delegated Proof Of Stake and the thought process behind the change. We go on to discuss pretty much everything else going on in the development of the bitshares platform. It was a great opportunity to tie up all the loose ends I could think of and Dan was happy to oblige. Then a fellow named Ian with the deepest knowledge of NXT of anyone I've met does pretty much the same thing. We began with Transparent forging and the scope of the interview just widened from there to cover the value of Javascript as a language, some of the frankly astonishing capabilities being developed in the NXT ecosystem and even NEM, a fork of NXT with aspirations of its own!

Beyond Bitcoin - 4 - Money Memes & The Coming Swarm

Great guests this week! First is a brief talk with Joel Deitz of Swarm. Swarm is a crowd funding platform with some checks in place to protect both project creators and investors. This, along side anonymous transactions and remission is in my mind a top killer app of cryptocurrency. Swarm is itself looking for capital investment from the public, beginning in a few days. Editing out connection difficulties turned this solid interview into a brief short but the important stuff is in there. http://www.swarmcorp.com/ Next up, Neil and Jonathan from Altcoin Labs chat amiably about the time when as kids they engaged in manipulating the price of pickaxes, the meme on USD bank notes, currency agnostic wallets, the importance of altcoins . . . It goes on, these guys have tons to impart. http://altcoinlabs.org/ CREDITS Music provided by Csus. Check them out on Soundcloud. Content provided by Joel Dietz, Neill Miller and Jonathan Zevallos.
