Innovation and entrepreneurship have been the themes of Roberto's life. He has always been fascinated by cutting-edge of technology.   Roberto Capodieci was born in Italy near Venice and was a natural entrepreneur from age 5, making and selling stuff to buy more toys. Elementary school bored him, so he dropped out he never went back, taking charge of his education and studying everything from business management to computer programming. He did not attend college officially, although he sneaked into lectures that interested him.  At age ten, he started a computer and electronics club. It became a business when he was 14—he started as a software house selling thousands of pirated computer games. At the time, there was no law to prevent it. With so many callers to the house and so much cash, his parents thought he was selling drugs. While not true, it created a reputation that led to a surprising opportunity with law enforcement.  The business moved from pirated software to optical archiving of documents using the first Apple computers.  The credibility of age By the time he was 19, he was the head of a large company employing 50 people. He had to employ older people to get the credibility of age. As one so young, he would pretend to be the janitor cleaning the floor so he could listen to his salespeople negotiate the deal. Our conversation is rich in stories as he has worked in many countries commercially and as technical support in law enforcement environments. He even knocked on the door of the FBI and asked if he could help. Roberto has 40 years of business behind him. It has always been about technology and innovation, so unsurprisingly, he has been instrumental in laying down the foundational aspects of blockchain applications, ensuring their relevance and applicability in various sectors. Innovation and Blockchain His contributions extend beyond the technical aspects, as he actively educates others, sharing his knowledge through speaking engagements, publications, and mentorship. On this show, we glimpse what is possible with decentralization and how it could protect everything from the food on your plate to life-saving medicine. Interestingly, he started his business on pirated software, and today, as an advocate of blockchain, he is at the forefront of preventing Piracy.      Further details about this podcast along with my Guest's website and social links are all available at: https://lifepassionandbusiness.com/roberto-capodieci-pirate-to-blockchain-innovation/       Life Passion & Business is dedicated to exploring what it takes to be Extraordinary, to face challenges and rejoice in the opportunities they bring, and expand our vision into new ways of thinking and living.

I'm delighted to welcome Petr Kozyakov, CEO and co-founder of Mercuryo, a global payments infrastructure platform, to share his invaluable insights on this transformative journey. Petr Kozyakov is a visionary leader with a deep understanding of the financial market, and his journey in FinTech began in the late 2000s. Throughout his career, he has held top management positions in payment companies, making him uniquely qualified to discuss the intersection of blockchain and finance. Our conversation with Petr delves into the potential of crypto payments as a fast and cost-effective solution, particularly for cross-border transactions. While cryptocurrency adoption is still in its early stages, Petr highlights the need for greater integration between crypto and fiat systems to unlock its full potential. Regulatory changes are also on the horizon, and Petr believes they are ultimately positive for crypto adoption as they legitimize the space and build trust among enterprises and consumers alike. However, he emphasizes the importance of businesses focusing on actual use cases that address genuine pain points rather than adopting crypto for hype. We explore the diverse use cases of crypto payments, from settling group expenses across borders to facilitating remittances with low fees and high speed. Stablecoins, in particular, are transforming the landscape by providing a store of value in countries with unstable currencies. Petr envisions a hybrid future of payments, where challenger banks become "crypto-first," seamlessly integrating crypto and fiat services. This integration will bridge the gap between crypto apps and traditional banking, offering users a holistic financial experience. Despite the immense potential, Petr acknowledges the challenges of implementing blockchain technology in payments. He advises businesses to take the time to understand the technology thoroughly and recommends starting with specific pain points before wholesale adoption. Strategic partnerships can also ease the transition for companies new to the crypto space. Join us for an enlightening conversation that explores the evolving regulatory landscape, the role of established card networks like Visa and Mastercard in crypto, and the exciting possibilities that lie ahead as blockchain innovation transforms the future of finance.

Blockchain innovation and app development continues Blockchains are implementing innovative but differentiated approaches to improving the tradeoff between scalability, decentralization and security. We expect blockchains that expand functionality and incentivize development to become attractive for developers in the near term. Over the longer term, we expect blockchains that prioritize usability and effectively market themselves to gain market share by attracting a robust and diverse ecosystem of applications that drives adoption, network effects and cash flows. Despite last year's digital asset correction, development continues for Layer 1 distributed ledgers and blockchains, Layer 2 scaling solutions and oracle networks and Layer 3 applications with real world uses.   You may also enjoy listening to the Merrill Perspectives podcast, featuring conversations on the big stories, news and trends affecting your everyday financial life.   "Bank of America" and “BofA Securities” are the marketing names for the global banking businesses and global markets businesses (which includes BofA Global Research) of Bank of America Corporation.

Für die einen ist Bitcoin und Blockchain ein Heilsversprechen; für die anderen eine spekulative Klimakatastrophe. Eine konstruktive Einordnung der bedeutenden Innovation wird mit Sicherheit irgendwo dazwischen liegen. Viel wird über Bitcoin & Co. geschrieben. Doch oft nicht mit der ausreichenden Differenzierung oder Offenheit, um sich der Technologie gut anzunähern und deren gesellschaftlichen Relevanz zu erfassen. Für ein solch differenziertes, offenes und fundiertes Gespräch über Bitcoin und Blockchain - befreit von Hype oder Polemik - kann ich mir keinen besseren Gast vorstellen als Prof. Fabian Schär. Fabian Schär führt das Center for Innovative Finance an der Universität Basel, ist ein ausgewiesener und vielzitierter Experte auf dem Gebiet und ist einer der gefragtesten Ratgeber für Regierungen, Banken oder Leitmedien wie „The Economist“. Zudem ist er Co-Author des Bestsellers und Standardwerkes „Bitcoin, Blockchain und Kryptoassets: eine umfassende Einführung“. Ich freue mich ausserodentlich, dass sich Fabian für den Sparkr Podcast Zeit genommen hat. Wir haben versucht, eine reichhaltige Einführung und differenzierte Auseinandersetzung mit der Innovation, den oft gehörten Irrtümern und der gesellschaftlichen Relevanz von Bitcoin und Blockchain in einen einzigen Podcast zu packen. Ein Unterfangen, wofür man normalerweise gerne auch eine ganze Vorlesung von Fabian besuchen könnte. Wir reden über die grundsätzlichen Prinzipien der dezentralen Blockchain, welche wichtige Rolle diese als Basisinfrastruktur für unsere zunehmend digitale Gesellschaft spielen kann, wir vergleichen Proof of Work mit Proof of Stake, tangieren DeFi, Smart Contracts, NFTs oder CBDCs und beleuchten häufige Mainstream-Themen rund um Bitcoin wie z.B. den potenziell klimaschädlichen Energieverbrauch, ob Bitcoin nur etwas ist für Kriminelle und vieles mehr. Zu keinem Zeitpunkt im Gespräch geben wir irgend eine Art von Anlageberatung oder ähnlichem ab. Mit diesem Disclaimer aus dem Weg geräumt, wünsche ich ein spannendes Gespräch zu Bitcoin und Co. mit niemand geringerem als Prof. Fabian Schär. (Das Gespräch wurde Anfang Mai 2022 aufgezeichnet) *** Die öffentlich zugänglichen, kostenlosen Vorlesungen von Prof. Fabian Schär sind hier auffindbar: https://cryptolectures.teachable.com Das Buch „Bitcoin, Blockchain und Kryptoassets: eine umfassende Einführung“ ist sowohl auf Deutsch und Englisch im Handel erhältlich. *** Der Sparkr Podcast wird moderiert und herausgegeben von Christian Lundsgaard-Hansen, dem Gründer von Sparkr - eine Agentur für Change Maker.

On today's #FinanceFriday, we have Mark Hindley, who has come on to discuss how TradFi (Traditional Banking) is merging into DeFi (Decentralized Banking). Even though banking and Decentralized Finance (DeFi) seem to oppose each other, Mark and his Bank, Cogent, have been blazing trails. Mark is the Managing Director of Blockchain Innovation at Cogent Bank, leading the sales strategy, product development, and risk management for Blockchain-Enabled Businesses. Cogent is a young, future-focused, leading-edge commercial bank working daily to bridge the gaps between decentralized ideas and centralized banking horsepower. Mark works closely with Blockchain and Crypto native companies and leaders in his role, finding innovative solutions for the evolving block/crypto space. Oh, and as a reminder, Web3 is a hypothetical, future version of the internet based on blockchain technology. For DeFi to get scaled, it needs to get involved with its much bigger brother, TradFi. So, that is what Mark is doing at Cogent Bank “in the real world.” The reality of being a Web3 company is that you can't pay your electric bill with your DOA's coin; you need fiat. Mark wants the DAO to be able to function outside of its underground beginnings. Because, in his opinion, some healthy regulation is coming. To scale Web3, it needs to be digestible for the average consumer, which means adhering to specific protocols. Watch the full video above if you want to learn the real-life applications of this technology, such as owning your birth certificate in the form of an NFT. As you know, Bette Hochberger Inc. is involved in the Miami Tech and Crypto scene, so we have seen the impact of the lack of regulation come tax time, and it is expensive and exhaustive to sift through thousands of crypto transactions trying to discern how much money you made and lost. So I welcome some healthy regulations and protocols. What about you? Do you want Web3 and DeFi to scale or for it to stay the wild west? Let me know over on social and as always, stay safe, and we will see you next time. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/bettehochbergercpa/support

The IBM Blockchain Pulse has had a lot of extraordinary guests featured on the podcast so far. They’ve featured leaders in government and business, space tech executives and designers, as well as startup founders and seasoned executives alike. But, an artist is yet to make an appearance!   In today’s episode, Matt is joined by a multidisciplinary artist, Erin Zhao, who leads the conversation to an area of Blockchain that IBM Blockchain Pulse has yet to delve into.   Joining the conversation, as well, is return guest, Nigel Gopie, Director of Artificial Intelligence Applications and Blockchain Marketing at IBM. In this episode, he helps to tell the story of IBM’s collaboration with Erin and how they’ve managed to rethink the art consumption experience in our COVID-19 era. They also speak about the importance of interconnectedness, transparency, and trust, in Erin’s art and blockchain tech itself.   Key Takeaways: [:00] An excerpt from today’s episode. [1:01] About today’s episode with Erin Zhao and Nigel Gopie. [2:36] Matt welcomes Erin and Nigel to the podcast. [2:59] What Nigel loves about IBM’s innovative clients and how they’re similar to artists. [4:05] Erin speaks about her experience when she was first approached by IBM to collaborate on an artwork that was connected to the concept of blockchain. She shares what initially excited her about this opportunity and blockchain in general. [5:53] The name of the piece Erin created with IBM is “Interconnectedness.” Erin shares how the theme of interconnectedness has played a major role in her art in the past and why she is fascinated by the concept in relation to blockchain. [8:00] Nigel shares how he and Erin first came to connect on this project and what their earlier conversations about the project looked like. [10:05] Prior to this project, has Erin always been fascinated by this intersection between art and technology?

[18:24] Nigel describes his favorite piece of Erin’s that drew him to her art. [19:40] Matt reflects on the power of art — especially in this COVID era. [21:06] On Erin’s art website, she writes that she is “...interested in bridging the tangible with the impalpable, in constructing space to encourage curiosity and to create tentative expressions from emotions that we experience but have difficulty putting into words.” She elaborates on what this means and how she creates the space within her art to encourage onlookers’ curiosity. Erin also takes listeners through her latest piece in collaboration with IBM, “Interconnectedness.” [25:25] Nigel shares what he loved about Erin’s description of “Interconnectedness,” and how “Interconnectedness” really illustrates the concept of blockchain accurately.

Guests:Matthew Graham (@mattysino) - debating FOR the motionAvichal Garg (@avichal) - debating AGAINST the motionHost:Richard Yan (@gentso09)Today's motion is “China will lead the world in blockchain innovation.” With a huge market, vast amount of capital, loose regulations (in a de facto sense anyway), deep bench of talent and prowess for imitation, China is a powerful incubator of tech and product, both in blockchain and other tech industries. China is the place for concentration of mining power, top exchanges and now potentially a pioneer for national digital currency. Global crypto investors may be interested in knowing, will true innovation come out of China? And for western entrepreneurs and operators, what can they learn from their Chinese friends? Today's debate will help address these questions.The guests we have for this episode are founders of two crypto funds: One is a US transplant into Beijing who now considers it home. While the other has been a Silicon Valley lifer since college.If you would like to debate or want to nominate someone, please DM me at @blockdebate on Twitter.Please note that nothing in our podcast should be construed as financial advice.Source of select items discussed in the debate:Baidu's Xuperchain: https://www.technologyreview.com/f/615022/baidus-xuperchain-launch-is-just-the-beginning-of-chinas-blockchain-rush/China's 9-9-6 engineer hours: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/996_working_hour_systemMulticoin's Mable Jiang breaks down President Xi's speech about blockchain development: https://medium.com/@mablejiang/xi-jinpings-speech-at-the-18th-collective-study-of-the-chinese-political-bureau-of-the-central-1219730677b2China's Belt and Road Initiative: https://www.cfr.org/backgrounder/chinas-massive-belt-and-road-initiativeMore than 30,000 companies are registered as blockchain businesses in China https://news.bitcoin.com/33000-companies-in-china-claim-to-use-blockchain-technology/

CEO of the UBS Optimus Foundation, Phyllis Costanza, joins Alberto Lidji to discuss social finance, philanthropy, blockchain, innovation, the SDGs and more. UBS Optimus was founded 19 years ago in Switzerland, and today it is overseeing about 175 projects in approximately 20 countries. The Foundation started off supporting children and now has broadened its portfolio to include a range of thematic areas, from slavery to health and innovative finance. In 2019, it expects to grant out $80m and next year is aiming for $100m.  Phyllis thinks this is only “scratching the surface”.  She notes that UBS, the bank, has roughly $2.5 trillion assets under management, so “even if we could just get half a percentage point [deployed for philanthropy], that’s $12.5 billion”. UBS Optimus does not have an endowment, nor does it wish to establish one; 100% of the money that is donated by clients is deployed for programs.  Phyllis notes that UBS Optimus’ strategy has not been to grow an endowment. The money “does us no good sitting in a bank, which I know is anathema to how bankers think. Our goal is to get the money in and to get it out as quickly as possible.” UBS is actively supporting philanthropists. A lot of high-net-worth individuals don’t know where to start their philanthropy work, and many who are already on the journey don’t feel satisfied.  UBS did a survey of its clients, which revealed that more than 90% of their large clients are giving philanthropically but fewer than 20% are satisfied they’re making an impact, which as Phyllis notes is pretty extraordinary.  She sees really interesting trends globally:  99% of UBS’s clients in Hong Kong want to give back to mainland China, consequently, UBS Optimus has become the largest international grantor into China, which “is a bit of a scary position to hold because giving in China is incredibly complicated". Their European clients primarily want to give into Africa and some to South East Asia, whilst out of their American clients, 96% of philanthropic giving stays in the US, where there’s an appetite to give domestically. UBS appreciates the value of peer-to-peer interaction and tries to connect their clients through different platforms.  They’ve developed the ‘Global Philanthropist Community’ – a network of clients who identify the key thematic areas they’re interested in supporting, such as early childhood development, the environment, culture – UBS then connects the dots. They convene key stakeholders at their annual UBS Philanthropy Forum and have insightful gatherings across the world, from Detroit to Shanghai. An interesting observation is that many trillions of dollars have been committed to charity as a consequence of ultra high-net-worth individuals signing ‘The Giving Pledge’, however, many of these people don’t know how to deploy these funds in a meaningful philanthropic and impactful way. She’s convinced that many clients actually come to UBS because of the bank's strong philanthropy offering. There is an increasing number of financial options available for philanthropists, from traditional charitable giving all the way to impact investing.  Strategic philanthropy and social finance falling somewhere in between the two. Social finance still falls within the philanthropy category because you’re getting concessional returns, as opposed to market rate returns.  Phyllis is passionate as she talks of a “really cool instrument”… “a really interesting, innovative debt instrument” called the ‘Social Success Note’.  In the podcast she explains how it came about and how it was structured to support an organization called Impact Water. In this instance, the Rockefeller Foundation was ‘the outcome funder’ who collaborated closely with UBS. Collaboration is essential, and UBS Optimus’ whole strategy is based on collaboration. They rarely go at it alone.  There is increased cross-sector collaboration and acknowledgement that you’re not going to reach your goals if you go at it alone. She specifically references the collaborative platform Co-Impact, “which is doing extraordinary work with people who have signed The Giving Pledge to bring them together to solve really systemic problems in countries.”  Phyllis was involved in launching the first Development Impact Bond (DIB). She explains how the DIB worked to support an organisation called Educate Girls. UBS was the investor and collaborated with the Children’s Investment Fund Foundation (CIFF) to get this off the ground. Impact measurement: randomised control trials (RCTs) are considered the gold standard of evaluations. However, an RCT is expensive and extremely time consuming and you don’t need to run an RCT for everything. Therefore, UBS Optimus are exploring things that may not require RCTs while still ensuring strong evaluation.  On the innovative front, they’re looking at how blockchain might be used to verify outcomes for DIBs – and Phyllis notes “the potential there is tremendous”. Smart contracts are also being explored.  In essence, what they really want to do is scale this process and look at how one can reduce the time it takes to bring these things to market and reduce the transaction costs currently involved. As we delve into the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), Phyllis talks enthusiastically about their recently launched ‘TogetherBand’ campaign, in collaboration with BottleTop and the UN Foundation – a campaign aimed at raising awareness of each of the 17 SDGs. The campaign was launched in April 2019 and will last 17 months – each moth focusing on a different goal of the SDGs. Phyllis is optimistic while realising there’s still much work to be done in the run-up to the 2030 deadline of the SDGs. Yes, we have to do a lot to achieve the Goals but the direction of travel is good.  We’re seeing a reduction in the mortality rates of children under five years of age, poverty rates are going down, child marriage rates are going down; but we still have a lot to do. She thinks that when we look back in 2030, we’ll be proud of what we’ve achieved. Not all SDG thematic areas are moving in the right direction, however. Phyllis is currently focusing on SDG 5 (Gender Equality) and notes that, still, women spend about three times as many hours as men in unpaid domestic and care work – unfortunately, “we don’t seem to be making a dent in that”. The key takeaway Phyllis shared with global listeners: “challenge everything, that would be my message, especially in philanthropy. And really push. If something doesn’t look right, if something doesn’t seem right, you think you can do more; challenge it!”  Please subscribe to this podcast.

A great deal of small businesses overlooks branding because they envision themselves as a business rather than a brand. However, no matter what the size of a business is, branding is what increases your value and creates trust from potential customers.

She tells the importance of innovating your branding game, investing in blockchain per se, to level up your marketing.

Founder Bob Reid, 48, says, “Everest gives the average person the ability to prove who they are, exchange value with another individual or institution, and utilize technology provided by an organization, facility, or agent army.” There are two social issues the team hopes to address with their technology, he says. Human Trafficking: By creating an identity utility for humanity, Everest aims to combat human trafficking by supplying a simple means for parents to enroll their children, then, in the case something bad happens, the parent has the ability to flag their children as “missing.” Further, by providing a simple mobile phone app, first responders and healthcare workers are able to screen individuals to make sure that they have not been reported as missing.

Xain AG, a blockchain startup is focused on developing concepts that use blockchain, artificial intelligence and data analysis on a decentralized platform. They are using a hybrid blockchain solution combining machine learning, or reinforcement learning, to strengthen the blockchain network. Leif Lundbaek, CEO, and Co-Founder at Xain AG explains how the concept began with a research project at Oxford University in 2014. It has since evolved into a system using modern machine learning on an Ethereum-based blockchain with the goal of enabling a robust and adaptable infrastructure for automated business processes. In 2017, XAIN AG won the 1st Porsche Innovation Contest. They are currently busy developing various projects with Porsche and DHL enabling these companies to build privacy friendly, secure environments to create strong positioning in an automation future. Lundbaek explains why data is an important component to developing AI and machine learning, which are now being applied to a wide variety of uses. Blockchain technology has a special role to play in the world of data. He uses Google as a strong example of a centralized entity they are trying to get away from, where every bit of information is easily available to anyone. Instead, Xain AG is continuing development on a platform for decentralized learning where knowledge can be shared and learned without giving all of the data away in the process.
