The Bitcoin Podcast

Bijan is live at the LA Blockchain Invest Summit talking to entrepreneurs who want to use crypto payment in ways we've never heard of before. CryptoFuse allows for safe transfer of digital assets in areas with inconsistent internet access, Please.com allows for peer to peer payments for curated travel experiences, and GuruMd provides emergency telemedicine for tokens.

This episode features Michael O'Rourke (CEO) and Luis C. de Leon (CTO) of Pocket. Pocket is a chain-agnostic decentralized AWS for blockchain full nodes. In a world where full nodes become more expensive to run, Pokt aims to have people host their nodes in their network by registering it with their Proof of Stake blockchain. Using Pokt tokens, someone can rent usage of the full node, using the node's stake as a guarantee of availability, removing the concern of maintaining one's own hardware (virtual or otherwise) to create a decentralized application.

The winter is real. Low hanging fruit is we talk about the price and what that means for the community, but more importantly we evaluate what it means for developers and the interest as a whole. In addition, Vinny Lingham the OG internet entrepreneur who is the co-founder & CEO of Civic - an identity protection and management startup - joins us in the studio. He was also previously the founder and CEO of Gyft & Yola, Inc. and of course we chat about his bearish attitude on ETH, the correct way to do an ICO, and more!

Amy and Justin Newton discuss the state of anti-money launder (AML) and know-your-customer (KYC) laws as it pertains to blockchain technology and crypto. Justin Newton is an early internet pioneer and technology startup veteran. His last four companies (BlackLine, Demand Media, NetZero and Above Net) all exited with +$1 Billion IPOs. He was responsible for architecting each company’s platform for global scale and preparing their data systems for regulatory compliance. Justin also founded the Internet Service Providers Consortium -- the first trade association for ISPs -- and served as its public policy director. He sits on the board for Adra Software and has been an advisor to more than a dozen startups, including Alcatel, Citrix and Juniper Networks.

In this bonus episode of The Bull Pen Podcast, The Crypto Bully and DJsNeverEndingStory team up to chat about the possibility of Bitcoin hitting $169 dollars by 2020. DJ is the host of Crypto Until Infinity Podcast, also on The Bitcoin Podcast Network, has experience as a successful music producer and audio engineer and is the 15+ year friend responsible for getting Lyndon interested and active into blockchain and cryptocurrency. Even though many important topics were discussed including the U.S. Justice Department’s investigation of Tether and Bitfinex, Bakkt delaying its Bitcoin futures launch and the importance of educating oneself if deciding to trade crypto, expect for there to be a healthy dose of humor during their chat as well. As The Crypto Bully says, “Let’s do it!” Show notes: https://steemit.com/btc/@bullpenpodcast/25lsqz3i Timestamps 00:00:00 – Disclaimer 00:00:47 – Intro 00:01:35 – Interview

On this episode, we have the extreme pleasure of interviewing Michael Yuan, Chief Scientist at CyberMiles. CyberMiles is building a blockchain platform targeted for e-commerce with those concerns in mind. Using a fork of Ethereum and the Ethereum toolsets, CyberMiles has an upgraded EVM with support for extended and extensible opcodes and a dPoS consensus system for validators to stake into the network. Their research is pushing the limits of what the existing technology can do, and they have some amazing progress in proving alternative systems for developing blockchain. Michael is a very exceptional scientists in this space, and he and Collin had a great conversation, not just about CyberMiles, but the space in general.
