The Bad Crypto Podcast Digital Identity with Vinny Lingham of Civic
If blockchain can be used to solve the double-spending problem and keep an immutable ledger, why can’t it be used to validate identity? Well, it can. And if Vinny Lingham has his way, his project will lead the way in the global digital identity revolution.
Civic has an app that stores your digital identity and makes it as simple as scanning a QR Code to prove that you are who you are. Today we speak to Vinny about Civic, Bitcoin, blockchain and the future of crypto.
In spite of Travis wanting to be me when he grows up, I have proof that I am me and he is not. But then again, there’s only one Travis Wright as well. So join us both as we validate you on episode #251 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.
