December 9th, 2015 by
John Ferguson In this Episode
First off its some Simpleton perspective on the Safe Exchange, followed by answering some listener questions.
Then it's full bore into Class VIII of the SAFE Network School, examining the key persona types and functions in the Vaults that form the heart of the SAFE Network. This one may be a bit of brain work, but it's worth it.

SAFE Crossroads Podcast #26, Free Trade for Real, The Safe Exchange
November 28th, 2015 by
John Ferguson In this Episode
History in the making. Exaggeration? You be the judge. This last week Daniel DaBek announced the release of the whitepaper on the new Safe Exchange. More than just a protocol, it is the core tool kit necessary to establish a decentralized contract marketplace, via which anyone will be capable of exchanging with anyone, anywhere, according to prearranged contractual conditions.
We discuss the current crowdsale, designed to raise the modest capital needed to finish d...

November 11th, 2015 by
John Ferguson In this Episode
Class VII of the School of the SAFE Network takes us to the realm of Self-Authentication, something else new to the world which will first appear with the SAFE Network, but will certainly become a standard for those who wish to have true control over their data and electronic relationships.
It is all about you and the network. That's all. No "trusted" authority or administrator required. No fine print user agreements, wherein you agree to give the service provider ...

November 4th, 2015 by
John Ferguson In this Episode
In Class VI of SAFE Network School, we round out a deeper view of the remaining component factors necessary to establishing and maintaining the SAFE Network as an autonomous entity.
We've come far pilgrims, and through the heaviest going--hopefully--but there is more to come. So take time to really let everything we've covered so far sink in. Put in some time going over it all a time or two more, if you can. It will help as you go forward.
