The Ether Review #34 - Vinay Gupta on Rethinking Blockchain Use Cases

Topics Covered:
Will Ethereum become regulated and merge with Fintech? Is this a bad thing?
In the event of a global financial collapse, have we built an infrastru...

June 22nd, 2016 by
Arthur S. Falls So the DAO was hacked. Karl Floersch and myself discuss the state of play. What happened? Was it the fault of the DAO developers or a bug in the Solidity language?

The Ether Review #27 - Blockchain Revolution
May 13th, 2016 by
Arthur S. Falls Blockchain Revolution, the acclaimed book by Alex and Don Tapscott has been stirring interest in elite tech circles in advance of its launch. Steve Wozniac called it “mindblowing in its expansiveness and profundity.” There are other great quotes on the dust jacket but I think an endorsement like that indicates that Blockchain Revolution is bound to be the bestseller that brings an awareness of blockchain technology to the masses. Today, Alex Tapscott speaks about the work.

The Ether Review #26 - The DAO is Here!
May 7th, 2016 by
Arthur S. Falls In the few days between this episodes interview and the recording of this introduction, the DAO has raised over ten million dollars, bringing its total cash reserves to twenty three million. Such investor enthusiasm is unprecedented in the cryptocurrency world. But is such enthusiasm justified? What is the DAO anyway? Where does Slockit fit into the picture? Will the investor control of the DAO result in overly optimistic capital management? Do these investors realize the highly speculative natu...
