Bitcoin, Blockchain, And The Technologies Of Our Future

Charles Hoskinson is best known as the creator of Cardano, a top 4 cryptocurrency that has been comfortably in the top 10 for a while now.But before that, he was a co-founder of Ethereum, he was part of BitShares with Dan Larimer, and he was the creator of the Bitcoin Education Project.Back in 2014, long before Ethereum had even launched, I first met and interviewed Charles, at a conference in Toronto. Now 7 years later, we reconnected in Mexico at the Satoshi Roundtable, and dived into everything that’s happened since then. Cardano’s meteoric rise, Ethereum’s success, and the shift of Bitcoin culture.Thanks for chatting with me, Charles!00:00  Intro00:30  The TED talk that changed everything02:32  Friction and Fallout03:50  The Developing World10:12  Inflation and the DeFi Boom17:00  History of Crypto19:51  Charles’ early years: Bitcoin Course, BitShares26:00  Ethereum DRAMA30:05  Cardano’s Journey of Research32:47  BATTLE for Base Layer & Bitcoin cultists42:57  Bitcoin Religion52:25  Power of CHOICE57:5
