Listen "Why $1 Trillion in Stablecoins Will Centralize Crypto | Quai Network's Energy-Backed Proposal"
Episode Synopsis
Just sat down with Alan Orwick from Quai Network at Mining Disrupt 2025 in Texas to discuss one of the most controversial takes in crypto right now: the stablecoin centralization problem.
🔥 KEY TOPICS COVERED:
Why $1 trillion in stablecoins by 2030 threatens crypto decentralizationHow Quai uses ENERGY as a unit of account instead of fiat currencyThe two-token model: QUAI (store of value) + QI (energy-backed medium of exchange)Why Bitcoin hasn't achieved Satoshi's peer-to-peer cash vision yetGPU mining as the most grassroots distribution method for cryptoSolo mining without pools - how Quai solved Bitcoin's centralization problemBuilding trustless Bitcoin bridges using zero-knowledge proofsThe connection between energy production and national prosperity
Alan breaks down how Quai Network is rethinking proof-of-work by tying cryptocurrency directly to electricity consumption, creating what might be the first true "energy-based money" since Bitcoin.
We also dive into:
✅ The Bitcoin knots vs core debate
✅ OP_CAT and Bitcoin programmability
✅ Why Lightning Network can't scale to everyone
✅ Using GPU networks for ZK-proof generation
✅ The future of decentralized bridging
This is a technical deep-dive for anyone interested in proof-of-work innovation, energy economics, and the future of decentralized money.
