BANK DOWN - Wells Fargo Shows Flaws of Centralization

Customers of Wells Fargo today were unable to access their accounts, funds and services for an extended period of time, after a fire in a Wells Fargo data center. While seemingly small, today's Wells Fargo issue goes to show the need for Bitcoin and distributed systems as we move forward in the future.

MakerDAO CDP Tutorial - What is it and why is it awesome?

Did you know you can get a loan from your ETH at only .5% interest annually, through a tool called the MakerDAO CDP? In this video I’ll walk you through what a collateralized debt position (CDP) is, why people have $210 Million locked up in them currently, and what the other alternatives are as well.

In my opinion, this is one of the most interesting utliziations of blockchain technology currently, that has the potential to erode power from the traditional banking ecosystem.

This Time is Different (It wasn't)

Is this time REALLY different? Let's talk about what we can learn from the recent pumps on LINK, BEAM and GRIN, and how human psychology can really influence crypto trading. Let's also talk about why the KIN/KIK ICO battle brewing with the SEC might be big news for the other ICOs as well.

#crypto

Kik is planning to fight a likely U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) enforcement action over its 2017 initial coin offering (ICO).

Grin's "Fair" Launch, Ethereum Upgrade Delays and Cryptopia Hack

A lot of people are excited about a new privacy coin called Grin, but what's the scoop on it? Let's chat about it's much lauded "fair" launch and if it's really fair. Ethereum delayed the Constaninople network upgrade due to a security vulnerability, so let's chat about that.

Russia Buying $10 BILLION of Bitcoin?!

The hot new rumor on the internet streets is that Russia is going to buy $10 BILLION of #Bitcoin in an effort to evade US sanctions. Let's unpackage this rumor and discuss why I think it's a big fat baloney sandwhich, nothing burger. Also, let's take a walk back on memory lane to January 14th of 2018 to see how far we've come in the past 365 days, or better yet, how far we've fallen.
