The Answer Is Transaction Costs

Are you intrigued by the transformative potential of blockchain and Ethereum? This conversation with Ryan Berckmans, an Ethereum enthusiast and savvy investor, will unravel world that remains mysterious to most.
We also reflect on Ethereum's potential as a geopolitical tool and the enticing prospect of stablecoins. As we venture into the world of privacy technologies like zero-knowledge proofs of identity or performance, we walk a knife-edge separating privacy and security. Wrapping up, we discuss the economic benefits of pseudonymity and the potential regulatory response(s).
Plus, just to keep TWEJ meaningful (otherwise, it would be "TMEJ", which is too hard to say), FOUR new economics jokes, one for each week of the month! And several letters, to give a taste of what I'll talk about in November.
