We will be talking about everything Web3 and Blockchain.
Apart from the weekly Podcast, we will also use this platform to include keynote speeches our team presents.
We will keep this light and fun, and easy to listen to. We will dive deep into the technology from time to time, but our goal is to educate and bring all of you on the Web3 journey with us.
We will talk about popular technologies such as Blockchain, Development, NFTs and Crypto, and please be advised whatever is spoken about here is not financial advice.
From the evolution of blockchain to its real world use cases, the episode touches on it all. We learn about Roberto's involvement in early days of napster and peer to peer networks like Bittorrent. These are then explained with crucial understanding of the difference between consensus mechanisms (like proof of work and proof of stake), the importance of decentralisation and how blockchain can truly disrupt industries such as finance, healthcare and supply chains.
