We're mixing it up in a big way this week and do our best to set the ledger straight on blockchain technology with software engineer Doug Lyford. Doug and Noah were in high school together and were brought back together by coincidence and a shared interest - Cryptocurrency. With Bissell Brothers actively exploring both transferring some liquidity to cryptocurrency and accepting it as payment, Doug helps us grasp what exactly blockchain is, why it's so important, and how it functions as the basis of virtually all cryptocurrency. We also dive in to the multitude of available cryptoassets and how they separate themselves, how "mining" (or minting) works and how its changed over time, and why we all feel this is just the beginning in the evolution blockchain and crypto in our society.
Blockchain technology is a wildly complex concept and the misunderstandings of it are ubiquitous. Regardless of how much or little you know about this world, you'll know more after hearing a dude that's been getting familiar with it for a decade dissect it. BBB is betting that knowledge will come in handy before it quickly becomes necessary. In a whole new world, it's damn nice to have the right guide. ...................... ........................................ .................................................................... ....................................................................................
