Interview with ‘PieDAO’, lead developer Mick de Graaf. Blockrock ep. 22

Bart was happy to talk with Mick de Graaf in Rotterdam about PieDAO. With PieDAO you can already diversify your BTC or USD position on the Ethereum blockchain and thereby reduce your risk holding these assets. The team is also developing a Ray Dalio style diversified portfolio, a portfolio that keeps you safe in all weather. Who wouldn't want that? And imagine all the possibilities for future 'pies'! They are only just beginning, this is what decentralized finance (DeFi) is about. Bart talked with Mick in a somewhat crowded, but cozy bar, hope you can manage the noise because it's a 'must-hear' episode. https://piedao.org/#/ | https://blockrock.nl

Interview with ‘IS IT COPERNICUS’, a project by Maarten Smakman. Blockrock ep. 21

Bart had a very interesting talk with Maarten Smakman about a new mysterious project: IS IT COPERNICUS?. The project explores the decentralization of money & power in an unusual, somewhat disturbing way. Maarten talks about scarcity, greed & reputation which have an interesting dynamic and can learn us about the future of value systems and how we react on that. Technology now brings us constructions for money and value like we never had before. We need to explore and learn before we can grow. Learn about this amazing project!
