The Bitcoin Game #22 - Blockchain Technology Panel from SODM15
July 30th, 2015 by
Rob Hello, welcome to episode 22 of The Bitcoin Game, I'm Rob Mitchell.
In today’s podcast you’ll hear the Blockchain Tech panel from the State Of Digital Money conference, which took place earlier this year in Los Angeles.

July 25th, 2015 by John Ferguson Decentralization. The buzzword of our times.
Increasing numbers and types of people are possessed of an elusive, but very real, visceral “itch” tied to the concept of decentralization. It’s hard to tell if the itch is caused by the concept or if the concept is simply being deployed in an effort to scratch the itch. It can have the appearance of both.
