Advancements in Nanotechnology

In this episode Max and Daniel speak with the venerable Ralph Merkle. Among his numerous achievements Ralph is the leading expert on nanotechnology, the inventor of cryptographic hashing and the co-inventor of public key cryptography. He is currently a board member at Alcor.    

In today's episode we discuss:

• What is Molecular Nanotechnology?
• How do different people use the phrase "Nano-Tech"
• The use cases for medical nanobots
• How we manipulate the world at the nano scale
• What are the more difficult molecules to work with?
• The intersection of Cryonics and nanotech
• Ralph Merkle's relationship with Cryonics
• Ralph's views on other scientific fields
• Ralphs opinions on cryptocurrency and Bitcoin
• Is Ralph Merkle actually Satoshi Nakamoto?
  
  And much more...
  
   As always, you can find Max and Daniel over at the Cryonics Underground Channel in the Cryosphere Cryonics discord chat server.
