  • In this thought provoking presentation, Jack talks about the future of Bitcoin Cash; describing the more complex and smarter things now possible with BCH, utilizing CashTokens and other powerful script tools.

    He describes multiple potential paths forward (EVM vs. Bitcoin model), and different ways to balance “backing” and “trust”.

    Jack ends by saying we are in a new era in BCH and we can do weird things and blaze new paths.

  • Emergent Reasons (The General, John Nieri) talks about programming smart contracts safely.

    He believes that people that are making apps or smart contracts need to prioritize safety when dealing with other people's money. The goal is contracts that CAN’T fail.

  • UTXO commitments may be needed if blocks get very large as BCH gains popularity and adoption. Calin starts by explaining UTXOs (unspent transaction outputs) and the basic data fields every UTXO contains.

    He then describes UTXO commitments, the changes required to introduce them, and the advantages and risks involved in going forward with UTXO commitments.

    Calin Culianu is a prolific BCH developer, and maintainer of many things such as BCHN, Fulcrum Server, and Electron Cash wallet.

  • In Moonsettler’s second landing on the show, we spend first half with a deep dive on Chaumian eCash (NOT XEC!), ZK rollups on BTC, with second half switching to collapse of BSV post COPA verdict, latest Blockstream propaganda, and other topics.

    Moonsettler is a BTC developer and a self-described “stubborn self-sovereign money maximalist and aspiring cypherpunk”.
