This week, I continue my conversation with Jim Nasr, CEO of Acoer about privacy and using distributed ledger technology (DLT). We discuss his work leading The HBAR Foundation's Privacy Market Development Fund and the trends he sees across grant applicants. We also chat about the collapse of FTX and the ripple effect it’s had on the crypto space.

We also discuss FTX's collapse and how to provide real transparency and data regulation in DLT technology.
