Williams uses examples to show that economic incentives, when designed properly, can persuade self-interested…

Bitcoin incentivizes entrepreneurs who produce cheap electricity competition in the minning space then leads to innovation in the energy biz cause there is a decentralised incentive to do it ( BTC) Satoshi still king in incentive designs.

That’s not Satoshi’s, he didn’t create BTC for cheap electricity. The search for electricity and the boom of cryptocurrency comes down to the oldest most basic incentive: Greed

Not a developer or even technically inclined, but I hung in there almost until the 3/4 mark. Until about 35:10 when he said that content would be moderated by code but then didn’t explain how that’s even possible. Or maybe he did explain it and it went so far over my head… But if anyone has an idea how to explain it, I’d love to hear it. Fascinating video anyway.

It’s self-moderated by the nodes in that each miner decides what data they want to host. This talk didn’t go into the technical aspects so he didn’t really touch on it. From what I’ve seen so far they don’t have a satisfying answer on how that will work in practice and coexist with current legislation though. Because it means the node operators would have to scan all that data for “illegal” content that could get them in trouble with the law. Seems messy.

Moderated questions are lame and antithetical to the spirit of the talk. How do we know the presenter didn’t rehearse the QA? Why is there a live audience if all they’re allowed to do is sit there like sheep and not say anything?
Blockchains are about verifying instead of trusting. The general public better treat their investments in general the same way. This is what VC firms do internally but obviously their business model is all about you having less information then them so “talks” like these are nothing but sales pitches.
