Listen "SSC #16: Future of Money by Alan Brantley"
Episode Synopsis
As crypto-currency meets meme-culture, sensationalist headlines and bold claims by bitcoin-bros drive mainstream perception of the space. But there is much more to the blockchain than market speculation and bitcoin billionaires. In reality, most legitimate coins exist to accomplish specific objectives. Many have huge aspirations for improving societal access to resources. The Stellar Lumen is such a coin.
In this podcast, we’ll talk to Stellar co-founder and Chief Scientist, David Mazierez to learn about Stellar. Additionally, we’ll discuss Bitcoin’s blockchain, see how Stellar is different, and understand Stellars’ vision for a world where sending money is as easy as sending an email.
Mazieres et. al. “Fast and Secured Global Payments with Stellar”
Nakamoto, Satoshi. “Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System.”
