In this episode of Creating a Humanist Blockchain Future, Rhys interviews Ryan John King, the CEO and co-founder of the FOAM protocol. They chat about a variety of fascinating subjects including their new crypto-spatial coordinate standard, multi-dimensional block reward functions, and using objective TCRs as a 1D oracle for points of interest. Enjoy!
It's true, we don't talk much about Bitcoin Cash on this podcast. But, one thing is for sure, if you’re familiar with the cryptocurrency space at all, you’ve probably heard of Roger Ver. He was an early proponent of digital currencies who loudly espoused the virtues of Bitcoin back when each unit cost just a few dollars. Sure, Roger Ver is, without doubt, one of the most controversial people within the Crypto community. But his insight is valuable and since his appearance on our podcast back in 2016, a lot has changed. His fork of Bitcoin, use of the Bitcoin.com domain and his stock answers about honoring the original Satoshi White Paper have rightfully opened him up to questioning. Sit back and enjoy!
Welcome to Announcements with Host No. 2, Demetrick Ferguson, a show that provides you details on current events, upcoming projects in the blockchain space, and token offering details. We are attempting to provide you with details and information from the people who are creating projects, and we are not giving advice. Please do proper due diligence when considering investments.
Today we talk with Sam Williams of Arweave.org.
A new data storage blockchain protocol based on a novel proof of access consensus mechanism that creates truly permanent data storage for the first time. Now data is finally permanent, low-cost, and truly censorship free.
The blockweave is a new distributed ledger, its technological innovations elevating it beyond current blockchains, and positioning it to become the backbone of the $3 trillion data economy. The blockweave revolutionizes the traditional, useless, high-energy output of typical blockchains. The Arweave is based on a new consensus mechanism called ‘proof of access’, which instead of producing the negative externality of high energy consumption, produces a positive externality; that of low-cost, permanent on-chain storage for the very first time.
Enjoy!

Hey! Just because we are 'Just 3 Guys', doesn't mean we don't believe that women’s access, participation, and leadership are critical in the global emergence of blockchain technology in our 21st century. But at the same time we don't like focusing in one just one sub-group of this space. The perfect guest to swing by is Kelcey who has built a platform dedicated to building the world’s largest community of blockchain professionals and are the creators and organizers of the inaugural ICOnference. With a career spanning more than 10 years in tech and innovation, Kelcey has worked with and advised startups of various stages as well as multinational companies.
This week's episode features Stuart Popejoy, founder of the Kadena, creator of the Pact smart contract language, and engineer/designer of the Chainweb blockchain protocol. We go in-depth on design decisions for Pact, how language simplicity impacts the security and adoption of second generation blockchains, how formal verification can be used to improve certainty in smart contracts, and the over-emphasis of Turing completeness for a very domain-specific language such as smart contracts. We go into the design behind Chainweb, an unboundedly scalable Proof of Work blockchain architecture, which expects to reach a whopping 10,000 tx/sec (864,000,000 tx/day) on its first year of release.
We celebrate episode 200! Kenn Bosak gets a tattoo of our logo! WHAT?! Holy shit! Also, Taylor from MyCrypto swings by to let us know about the Desktop App (Alpha), which is NOW AVAILABLE! Recent events have underlined the importance of using downloadable builds, and we believe this early version of their Desktop application is a step in the right direction. Get it now: https://download.mycrypto.com.
Also Keni Styles, former pornographic actor, swings by to give us part 2 of his story, that stemmed from episode 100. He teaches us that even in crisis, assessing situations based on allowing what is and consciously creating new action from it can be a powerful practice. We also get an update on the crypto porn community and how bad actors and practices can rewind progression.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Zaki Manian, prolific engineer, Founder of SkuChain, Head of Tendermint Labs, Advisor on the Interchain Foundation, and Executive Directory of the Trusted IoT Alliance. Phew, that's a lot of hats. Zaki gives us a glimpse into what it's like designing a scalable, secure consensus protocol. We speak to him about the philosophy behind scaling solutions, the differences in approach to consensus mechanisms, the role of blockchain as the world grows accustom to trust, and get a really solid look into the history of the blockchain space that led to where we are today.
Our bro Kenn Bosak joins in the studio and we just have a fireside chat about all this going on in crypto this week. In addition, Kenn is getting our podcast logo tattooed on him to celebrate our upcoming 200th episode. Holy Shit! Guess now is a good time to rebrand the show. Kidding. We love you Kenn.

WIth an interest in crypto over the last year, we wanted to interview him to see discuss a number of threats in the crypto world.
