150 Years Ago (March 1875) Three of the four children in the James Robinson family of Garrison - John (16), Willie (10) and Jennie (19) - died of diphtheria over 10 days. Shortly before she died, Jennie asked for James Meade, her Sunday School teacher: "Tell my young friends to seek the Lord, while he may be found, and meet me in heaven." After a storm, a classified ad appeared in The Cold Spring Recorder offering a reward for a Smith & Wesson seven-shooter with plated barrel and rosewood stock lost in the snow, probably on Main Street between West and Church. Because of the snow, Garden Street was reduced to a single lane, forcing Charley Warren to load one side of his wagon with bystanders to turn around, "like a sailor does the windward gunwale in a gale," according to The Recorder. Mr. VanWinkle complained that a transcript of his lecture on Egypt and the Nile, reprinted in The Recorder, contained many errors, including "some of words altered to others that were not dreamed of when writing." After poultry went missing, Theodore Adams, his father and his brother-in-law found the dead birds buried near the Fishkill line. They set a steel trap and returned to find it gone. They followed the path of bushes where the trap had snagged and branches chewed off to release it. At Kings' Chest Cave, by smoke and bullets and dogs, they drew out and killed a 33-pound wildcat with the trap around its foot. The men had it stuffed and brought it to the village. A burglar broke into the slaughterhouse of Charles Miller and stole $5 [about $150 today] worth of pork, beef and veal. Burglars stole $50 [$1,450] worth of liquor and cigars from Tevan's basement saloon by breaking a window. To add insult to injury, the culprits uncorked and spilled the demijohns and smashed the glass bar backing. The Rock Street door of Baxter's Hardware was jimmied and the money drawer relieved of $4 [$115] in change. In a letter to The Recorder, a resident called for $500 of the $1,000 [$29,000] allocated by the Cold Spring Village Board for streets instead be spent to install kerosene lampposts on every corner to "keep our stores from being plundered night after night." Milton Lawrence's hay and William Odell's red cow were seized for back taxes. A young man who raised alarms when he walked down Main Street at 5:30 p.m. on a Thursday with a bandaged head and bloody clothes said he had been injured working at Miller's slaughterhouse. The Library Association hosted a discussion of the question: "Will the centennial of a republican form of government be celebrated by the United States, as a unit, more than once?" The Glee Club also sang. P. Nichols of Parrott Street said his 17 hens produced 118 eggs in 12 days. Thomas Richards was killed at Croft's Mine in Putnam Valley when he drilled into an unexploded ordnance. A year after Michael O'Brien broke his arm in a fight near the depot, he was finally able to return to his job at the foundry, where a hoist rope broke and a casting crushed his arm. A police officer from Orange County came to Cold Spring to arrest John Wyant on a charge of bastardy. Wyant returned home after posting a $1,000 [$29,000] bail. In Nelsonville, Charles Van Voorhis sold 50 chances at $1 [$30] each to win a scene he crafted with stuffed birds and squirrels. Elijah Warren of North Highlands, at 70, took his first train ride, from Cold Spring to Garrison. He said his daughter told him to keep his head inside the window. "Dear Lord, how we did sail!" he said. "After I got settled, I could have rode clean to [New] York." 125 Years Ago (March 1900) Michael Pendergrast, 48, the brother of George Pendergrast of Cold Spring, was killed in the railroad tunnel south of Anthony's Nose. He was clearing the ceiling of hanging ice when he was struck by a southbound express. Pendergrast had been employed by the railroad for 25 years and left a widow and eight children. Iona Island, the popular picnic resort, was purchased by the federal government to us...

Welcome to Pelican Briefs, your go-to podcast for diving deep into the most pressing issues in Louisiana. In this episode, hosts Charles Miller and Etosha McGee tackle a deeply serious and sensitive topic: the ongoing investigation into the Archdiocese of New Orleans and the alarming allegations of child abuse that have rocked our community. [TRIGGER WARNING] This discussion involves distressing details about systemic abuse and cover-ups within the Archdiocese. Over the past four years, the legal proceedings have revealed a staggering amount of hidden abuse, financial expenditures exceeding $36 million, and a case duration that's twice the national average. As former members of the Catholic community, this topic hits close to home for both Charles and Etosha. We share our personal reflections on the church's failure to acknowledge and address these heinous acts and discuss the cultural and personal impacts on our community. Join us for this essential conversation as we uncover the truth and discuss the future implications for the Archdiocese of New Orleans.

Welcome to another episode of Pelican Briefs with your hosts, Charles Miller and Etosha McGee! In this episode, we dive deep into the pressing issue of Louisiana's population decline. Join us as we explore the various factors driving this trend, including inadequate education and healthcare, which contribute to a significant brain drain as college graduates leave the state. We discuss the role of the state legislature in this crisis, criticizing recent bills that fail to address these core issues. Instead, we see a focus on conservative cultural policies, such as mandatory Ten Commandments displays in classrooms, which do little to solve the real problems. We emphasize the need for better investment in public education and healthcare to retain residents and boost the state's future. Our conversation also covers the impacts of natural disasters, insurance challenges, and the broader effects of conservative social policies on our population. Despite these challenges, we highlight the unique cultural and community aspects of Louisiana that continually draw people back, showcasing why we believe in the potential for positive change. Join us as we unpack these critical issues and share our hopes for a brighter future for Louisiana.

Welcome to another episode of Pelican Briefs! Join our co-hosts, Etosha McGee and Charles Miller, as we dive into the hot topics of the current Louisiana legislative session. This episode, we're dissecting three key bills that could significantly impact our state: House Bill 608, the Women's Safety and Protection Act (Louisiana's bathroom bill), House Bill 800, the proposed Constitutional Convention, and Senate Bill 482, a public records bill aiming to limit government transparency. We'll discuss the implications of House Bill 608, focusing on its transphobic rhetoric and potential impacts on domestic violence shelters. House Bill 800, the "ConCon," aims to rewrite our state's lengthy constitution in just six weeks, raising concerns about the rushed process and lack of transparency. Senate Bill 482 seeks to make government records less accessible, drawing significant opposition from journalists and the public. Tune in as we provide our perspectives, predictions, and the potential outcomes of these bills. Stay informed and engaged with us as we navigate the complexities of Louisiana politics.

Bem amigos do Pelada na Net, chegamos em definitivo para o programa 661! E hoje temos o Príncipe Vidane, Show do Vitinho e Maidana encantados pelo menino Endrick! E neste programa comentamos a esperançosa estreia de Dorival Jr no comando da Seleção: a estrela de Endrick que brilhou pra garantir a vitória sobre a Inglaterra em Wembley, além do heroico empate no Bernabeu que tiramos pra cima da Espanha e da arbitragem tendenciosa que tentou roubar um pouco mais de um sulamericano (como se já não tivessem roubado o suficiente).

Dr Charles Miller from UNO is back to continue the conversation about the history and sociology of New Orleans most neglected neighborhood
Along with Dr. Charles Miller, WWL listeners share some thoughts about what went wrong with New Orleans East and how to recapture the magic
New Orleans East is a mess in part because of deliberate decision making by Ray Nagin and other city leaders in the years after Hurricane Katrina. Dr. Charles Miller from the University of New Orleans Dept of Planning and Urban Studies has the details
International relations scholar Charles Miller joins Democracy Sausage to discuss the conflict in Ukraine and Putin's ‘re-election'. Are Ukraine's international supporters in the United States and Europe losing hope in holding off Russia's advances and achieving peace? If Trump is elected, where will Ukraine source much needed aid? And, after Putin has been re-elected for another six years, why do autocrats bother with elections at all?

Setting a festive mood with a holiday shirt to boot, Charles Miller kicks off the CoinGeek Conversations Christmas Special this year, sharing a bubbly toast with his guests: CoinGeek Reporter, Becky Liggero, and Osmin Callis, the Founder and CEO of Mode 8. The two battled it out to the end in an exciting quiz covering topics, such as Bitcoin SV (BSV) companies, Bitcoin terminologies, entertainment, science, and a final odd one out round. Formulating the questions using ChatGPT, Charles marveled at how the language model came up with its responses, as well as abstract images for BSV companies, based on the very little information he gave. The first round focused on Bitcoin SV companies, with Charles asking participants to identify BSV their names based on AI images. The next round shifted to general knowledge, covering topics such as the Olympic Games in London, planets, Komodo dragons, and Taylor Swift albums. The third round took a unique turn, presenting descriptions from Robin Kohze, CEO and Co-founder of Vaionex, with participants tasked to identify Bitcoin-related terms based on these descriptions. In the final, odd one out, round, participants had to pick the word or phrase that didn't belong among four choices. The competition was fierce as Osmin and Becky vied to answer questions, earning points for correct answers. At the end of the quiz, the scores were tallied, ultimately revealing the winner, with prizes, like the bubbly, ‘magically' passed across the online connections! To find out who won, you'll need to watch the show and perhaps test your knowledge by attempting some of the questions! Best of luck, and may you have a joyful holiday season from the CoinGeek Conversations team!

In the latest episode of CoinGeek Conversations, Charles Miller meets Michael Simeon, the Co-founder and CEO of VPD Money, a company which promises to create "The Bank of You." "VPD" stands for "Virtual Payment Digital." Michael explains that they would have made their tagline, "The Bank of You," the name of the company but that there are regulatory restrictions on using the term "bank" in the name of a business. Charles explores the user experience by signing up for VPD Money during the conversation. Michael guides him through the process, highlighting the flexibility in funding options, including transfers, card transactions, and unique codes like USSD codes, popular in Africa. One objective of VPD Money is financial inclusion, particularly in underserved regions. Michael expresses his passion for empowering communities: "we let you build your home bank." He emphasizes the challenges faced by those in remote areas where traditional banking is a challenge. VPD Money aims to bridge this gap. Michael highlights the strategic deployment of Point of Service (POS) machines, saying, "we have partnerships with all the places where we push out POS machines". These machines facilitate easy access to financial services, especially in areas where physical banks are scarce. When asked about the company's progress, Michael reveals, "we have over 50,000 customers," categorizing them into global customers, SMEs, and the unbanked. He touches upon the future capability of international remittances, contributing to the financial inclusion of the global community. Charles asks about Michael's entrepreneurial journey, referencing his previous venture, VoguePay. Michael explains a difference, stating that VoguePay is a payment processing company, while VPD Money is a comprehensive digital banking experience. Michael discusses VPD Money's future plans, including personalized savings features. He shares a concept of saving customers 20 per cent of their earnings monthly through AI-driven insights and negotiated discounts. Having extensive experience in the crypto space, Michael reveals that he was among the pioneers introducing crypto payments in Nigeria back in 2014. He acknowledges the unexpected trend of Nigerians using crypto as a store of value against their currency.
CoinGeek Conversations concludes its three-part Block Dojo mini-series with insightful conversations featuring innovators in blockchain technology. In the latest interviews, Charles Miller meets three entrepreneurs completing the business incubator program: Robin Russel of Satva Trust, who discusses the use of blockchain to enhance emissions reporting in the shipping industry; Priyatham Varma of Back3nd, who explains his mission to empower non-technical individuals to create fintech products; and Luiz Adler of Smash Mountain Studio, who shares the journey behind developing the world's first Brazilian Jiu Jitsu game. In the first interview, Charles speaks to Robin Russel, Co-founder and COO of Satva Trust, a company using blockchain technology to improve emissions reporting in the shipping industry. Robin stresses the importance of accurate data in an industry that releases around a billion tons of carbon dioxide each year, making up three per cent of the world's total emissions. The current data on emissions is unreliable, creating problems for financial stakeholders like lenders and insurers. "It's really a question of visibility," Robin explains about having clear information to make informed decisions about business risks. When discussing the market for emissions data, he explains that lenders and insurers pay for risk assessments using emissions data, along with shipowners who "would really like to showcase how well they're doing in that direction". However, unreliable data makes it hard for shipowners to showcase their environmental efforts. The first step to producing more reliable data is to eliminate self-reported data from ships. Robin notes the importance of using satellite data, which includes weather, sea conditions, ship details, position, and speed, processed through AI. Charles asks about the social and environmental motivations behind the venture. Robin asserts that "we're all interested in sustainability," acknowledging the team's commitment to addressing climate challenges. As for the unreliability of data in the shipping industry, Robin noted, "It seems like a situation that needs to change. The technology exists now to make a change." Next, Charles sits down with Priyatham Varma, founder and CEO of Back3nd and a former web developer and educator. He has a mission to empower individuals without technical skills to create their own fintech products. As Priyatham puts it, "Back3nd is a no-code platform where anyone can easily build blockchain applications, especially for the fintech industry.” The platform is so simple to use that even those unfamiliar with coding will be able to build a business on top of blockchain, he says. "Blockchain is an entirely new system and is rewriting the entire finance industry. You can be a beginner, but in two years, you'll be an expert in blockchain space.” Back3nd includes products like payment gateways, peer-to-peer lending platforms, and analytics dashboards. Back3nd offers a range of subscription plans but as Priyatham explains, "if you don't want to subscribe, you can still use the free version, but we'll be taking a larger commission on every transaction. Subscribers enjoy reduced transaction costs and access to features like analytics dashboards.” As for Back3nd's target users, Priyatham explains, “the first customers are entrepreneurs or innovators who want to build something on top of our platform, 60 per cent of the entire blockchain ecosystem consists of people who aren't coders but want to build something on top of it.” Lastly Charles speaks to Luiz Adler, founder and Game Director of Smash Mountain Studio, about the latter's journey behind creating the world's first Brazilian J
Charles Miller is once again exploring innovative ventures in the Block Dojo incubator program on this week's CoinGeek Conversations. Rafaela Azevedo's The Chain Academy trains developers for Web3; Kenneth Kelly's Revested streamlines real estate transactions; and Marcus Odubonojo's Motion Shield simplifies car accident reporting— all showcasing the potential of blockchain technology. Kicking off our series of interviews, we begin with Rafaela Azevedo, the founder of The Chain Academy, who takes a unique approach to training developers for the rapidly evolving Web3 space. Rafaela's journey into the tech industry is influenced by her tech background, as she explains that “all my family is in tech." Her parents, both developers, played a significant role in shaping her passion for technology. Growing up surrounded by the world of coding, Rafaela embarked on her coding journey at a very young age. "I was coding when I was six years old with my dad. I just got really passionate about the idea and just went for it," she recalls. The Chain Academy is an educational platform for developers entering Web3. The training program not only focuses on individual skill development but also aims to link developers with potential employers. “They are going to be skilled up to collaborative commercial projects where they can actually have their first experience and create a portfolio," she notes. The Chain Academy offers a unique learning experience with a step-by-step approach, short videos and text, catering to individuals with varying attention spans. In addition, AI technology will be used to provide instant feedback to developers, assessing their strengths and areas for improvement. The Chain Academy's roadmap includes a commitment to addressing various blockchains, starting with Solidity and Ethereum and expanding to others such as the BSV Blockchain. As for the company's revenue model, Rafaela says it will include a subscription model for developers and fees for businesses posting projects. Next was Kenneth Kelly's Revested, a blockchain-based business that aims to simplify and expedite the process of buying and selling houses. Kenneth is keen to point out that Revested utilizes blockchain technology to eliminate old practices in the real estate industry. "The problem in the industry, going back to my grandfather's time, would be that one in three property sales fall through, and on average, it takes between three and six months. So, you know, huge problem within the space."Revested addresses these challenges by streamlining mundane processes, especially with compliance and regulation. As Kenneth explains, "KYC when you come on to Revested is simple.. you enter your name, email, passport, and take a photograph of yourself. We then upload your property title deeds, which we can cross-check using machine learning against the land registry document."Blockchain technology will be used in the digital exchange for property transactions. "We're building a custom layer two platform, essentially a digital exchange to connect a wallet dependent upon the currency and to be able to trade that currency in and out of the exchange."Kenneth envisions a future where property tokenization enables instantaneous transactions. "You could be down in the pub on a Friday, and you could be selling your property in minutes instantly," he says. However, Charles raises concerns about the potential risks and the necessity for a thoughtful decision-making process in real estate transactions. Kenneth responds by highlighting the role of machine learning in scanning title deeds for underlying issues, saying, "there's new machine learning models that are really pushing boundaries within the legal space."When asked about the business model, Kenneth explains "we would take a percentage of transaction fees based o
Hear from David Schimel and Pooja Khosla of Entelligent, as we explore the intersection of climate science and risk management. For over 30 years, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, or IPCC, has reported on the future physical impacts of climate change, based on the best available science. But these predictions have tended to underplay the likelihood of extreme risks. This is in part because scientists have focused more on the centre of the distribution rather than the extremes, which is likely to have been in part a reaction against an increasingly politicised level of scrutiny. However, for risk professionals, the tails of the distribution are of particular importance. They also need also to think about the nature of the transition, which will depend on a number of factors, such as technological improvements and policy changes. Here, we have also seen systematic errors – for example, just consider the errors in forecasting the cost of solar energy. So in today's episode, we'll take a closer look at the balance of these errors on the physical and transition side. We'll explore the intersection of climate science and risk management, including: How the politicization of climate change has shaped how climate scientists communicate its risks and opportunities. The challenge of translating climate science into actionable financial risk data; and How ignoring the less likely impacts of climate change can lead to greater losses and missed opportunities.

In the latest episode of CoinGeek Conversations, Jack Pitts, founder of Slictionary, Brendan Lee, founder of Elas Digital and CoinGeek's Charles Miller delve into Zeke Faux's new book, Number Go Up. Faux, a journalist from Bloomberg Businessweek, takes readers on a journey through the crypto world, focusing on characters like Sam Bankman-Fried of FTX, the cultural phenomenon of Bored Apes, and the mysteries of Tether's $68 billion valuation. The book's format, a first-person narrative, fascinated Jack, who said he enjoyed the informal style. Faux's approach reflected the author's personal experience as he became a character in the story. Brendan found the storytelling engaging, describing it as an adventure that kept him hooked: “the author managed to get into the offices of several of these really high flying crypto executives. And I mean, it kind of reads like a bit of an adventure.” Charles discussed the evolution of Faux's perspective from a seemingly innocent article about Sam Bankman-Fried to a more critical stance, especially regarding FTX's legitimacy. The conversation touched on the author's initial portrayal of FTX as a “thought experiment”, later questioning its potential scam-like nature. A discussion on Tether's central role in the crypto world surfaced, with Brendan raising concerns about Tether's backing and its potential impact on the overall economy. He emphasized that Tether's $68 billion valuation should have corresponding funds in a bank account. They discussed the suspicions surrounding Tether's operations, with concerns about its actual reserves and its role in market manipulation. “I suspect and a lot of people in the BSV community as well, that Tether, there's not much money there at all,” Brendan asserted. Jack meanwhile argued that regulators should focus on auditing the trading practices of platforms like Binance and Bitfinex rather than questioning Tether's reserves. “What they need to audit is not what's backing the treasure chest. They need to audit how the treasure chest was obtained, which means they need an audit of Binance. They need an audit of Bitfinex and an audit of Tether to find out what trades were being made, how they were being made, and what dirty people they were trading with, and how they were manipulating prices to basically make themselves all that money.” The conversation turned to the NFT craze, with Jack criticizing the quality of the digital assets. “I think the funniest thing about the NFT craze is the levels of ideocracy behind it. So first of all, the pictures themselves aren't even on the Ethereum blockchain. And yet the funny thing about these NFTs is they have to be really low 1980s quality pictures.” Brendan brought up the exploitative nature of some artists profiting from NFTs. “I was reading about these people who were creating NFTs and they were paying the artists, like $10 to create all of this material and then going and making $10 million from selling them. It's not just lazy, but it's exploitative.” They proceeded to discuss a section of Faux's book, which delves into the bizarre world of Bored Apes and how Faux risked $20,000 of his own money to purchase an Ape, with the goal of gaining access to an exclusive party and later selling the digital asset. The Bored Ape phenomenon represents the broader NFT craze, as discussed by the participants. They critiqued the low-quality, pixelated images of these digital assets. “I find the whole Bored Ape kind of hype cycle which I think really has largely ended now seems to be one of the strangest things that's happened in crypto,” Brendan noted. A significant part of the book explor

VX Technologies Executive Director of Global Partnerships, Catherine Lephoto, is no stranger to the world of blockchain and digital innovation. In 2022, she sat down with Charles Miller on the sidelines of the BSV Global Blockchain Convention in Dubai to discuss VX Technologies and its blockchain-based solutions on CoinGeek Conversations. This time, Catherine is back to shed light on Alpha DAPP, the flagship product of VX Technologies, which has the potential to be a game-changer not only for Africa but for countries worldwide.Alpha DAPP, as the name suggests, marks the start of decentralized applications (DAPP). As Catherine explains, Alpha DAPP which operates on the BSV blockchain aims to harness the power of blockchain technology. However, what makes Alpha DAPP truly exciting is that it offers a user-friendly experience. “On the face of it, does not look like it's blockchain. It still looks very much like what people are currently accustomed to. So when they interact with the platform, they would not even know that they are actually working on a blockchain platform,” she notes. Catherine recalls the challenges of explaining the concept of blockchain, especially the process of managing a 12-word seed phrase to access a blockchain account. As she points out, people are accustomed to creating an email account with a simple password that can be easily retrieved if forgotten. Alpha DAPP has addressed this by making blockchain technology accessible to any average person. “When I interact with it, it's like I'm interacting with any other app on my phone or on my computer. It's simple,” she says. Catherine is keen to point out that VX Technologies is committed to upholding data sovereignty, ensuring that users maintain privacy and ownership of their data. “Our company is all about data sovereignty,” she asserts. Unlike traditional centralized platforms where data is often controlled by third parties, Alpha DAPP users have control over their data. . Alpha DAPP has made the whole process user-friendly and familiar. Users can log in using a simple email address, eliminating the need to download wallets or remember complex seed phrases. A blockchain wallet will be assigned to each user, and in the event of a data loss, Alpha DAPP provides an option to retrieve the 12-word seed phrase. “The idea is the privacy still remains yours, the sovereignty of the data, the ownership is still yours. But now what we have done is we have created the interaction, essentially the bridge to the blockchain in a manner that is familiar, which is using a simple email address to log in,” Catherine explained. Catherine also discussed Alpha DAPP's potential impact on education and employment recruitment and the role it can possibly play in these sectors. With academic records stored on Alpha DAPP, graduates can present a QR code during virtual interviews, enabling employers to verify their credentials instantly. This streamlined process eliminates the need for graduates to travel long distances for interviews, especially in remote areas, reducing the financial burden and enhancing the efficiency of the recruitment process. According to Catherin, this approach can significantly address high unemployment rates in countries like South Africa. Catherine also stressed that records must be issued by a credentialed authority to ensure trustworthiness. “With everything that we do, the record has to be issued by a credentialed authority,” she asserted. Students cannot simply create their own records, as this would risk compromising the integrity of the system. Instead, universities and educational institutions have a critical role to play in the issuance of records, which Alpha DAPP securely records on the blockchain. Catherine highlighted the importance of the first customer and the value of reference
Chatbots have been a staple of the digital landscape for years, offering solutions to queries, performing tasks, and even providing companionship. But the game is changing. At the London Chatbot Summit, a gathering traditionally focused on chatbots, this year's focus was artificial intelligence (AI). CoinGeek Conversations host Charles Miller had the opportunity to delve into this transformative shift and interview two prominent attendees, Craig Massey and Professor Elizabeth Stokoe. Craig Massey, a serial entrepreneur, previously the founder and chairman of Block Dojo, has now ventured into the realm of AI with his new incubator, AI Forge. He says Block Dojo had a significant impact on the blockchain industry, accounting for 24% of all blockchain start-ups in 2022. Despite this, Craig decided to embrace AI with his new enterprise: "we've taken all the learnings from the blockchain incubator and transposed them into an AI incubator." Massey discussed the appeal of AI to corporates, emphasizing the differences in enthusiasm. While blockchain faced internal conflicts and scepticism, AI is met with eagerness. The AI technology complements blockchain in areas like content creation, rights management, and combating fake news, adding a layer of rigor. It also streamlines back-office processes within corporations, making them more efficient and less bureaucratic. With AI Forge's commitment to business-to-business solutions, it's no surprise that they've been attracting corporate interest. As Craig Massey mentioned, "We had 324 applications into cohort one. We've already surpassed that for Cohort two." This overwhelming response demonstrates the growing interest in AI and AI Forge's initiatives, he says. Massey's words also shed light on their rigorous selection process, with a final 30 contenders facing a judging panel that includes luminaries like the head of AI for Google and Meta as well as AI founders with successful exits. AI Forge's approach seems to be resonating, as Massey explains: “the applications we've had are clever, more product-oriented". The focus on productization and collaboration with interested corporates, signing letters of intent and pursuing proof of concepts, reflects AI Forge's proactive approach to creating solutions that could lead to quick acquisition, suggesting future trade sale exits, potentially in the range of £30 to £40 million. Massey hopes that blending AI with blockchain creates a synergy that could redefine industries. As he notes, "for me, they're not like two separate technologies. They're a perfect marriage." This intersection promises a bright future where chatbots powered by AI become smarter, more intuitive, and deeply integrated into our daily lives. Still at the London Chatbot Summit, Charles embarked on a quest to unravel the enigmatic world of AI-driven chatbots. Inspired by the potential of AI Forge's startups, he delved into questions that seems to hover over this dynamic field: can AI-powered chatbots ever match the conversational finesse of humans? Are these bots capable of rivalling human interactions? Charles turned to the expertise of Professor Elizabeth Stokoe, an authority in the science of conversation. On the relevance of her field to the chatbot industry, Professor Stokoe stressed the need to analyse whether chatbots genuinely engage in conversations by leveraging research on human interaction. When discussing her methodology, Professor Stokoe explained how conversation analysts like herself rely on recordings of real-life interactions, avoiding simulations or interviews. They focus on what unfolds in the actual interaction, including the moments of engagement and disengagement. She recounted a study that revealed the architecture of initial inquiry calls to community mediation services, highlighting key points t
In this episode of Navigating Uncertainty, Dr. Mansharamani speaks with Charles Miller, co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Lynk Global. Charles shares his personal story of growing up in a small town in California with two younger brothers, how his fascination with science fiction drove an ambition to become an astronaut, and how he left CalTech without graduating. He also talks about his work opening up space to commercial competition and his current ambition to use space to connect everyone everywhere (and eliminate the annoyance of dropped calls!). Charles concludes with some fabulous advice for navigating uncertainty: Learn from the mistakes others made, make new mistakes, and embrace your passion as a driving force. mansharamani.substack.com
Yves Mersch, a former governor of the Central Bank of Luxembourg and member of the executive board of the European Central Bank (ECB), recently shared his valuable insights on the world of cryptocurrency, its regulation, and the distinct significance of Bitcoin SV. In a candid conversation with Charles Miller on CoinGeek Conversations, Yves provided clarity on these complex topics in a straightforward yet insightful manner. The Role of Central BanksYves began by emphasizing the important role of central banks in safeguarding a nation's currency. He stated, "as a regulator, the ECB has a mandate to defend a currency which is supposed to be stable." Central banks like the ECB are entrusted with the responsibility of ensuring the stability of their respective currencies and facilitating secure and efficient payment systems. Embracing Technological InnovationIn the realm of financial innovation, Yves highlighted the positive stance of central banks. He explained, "the ECB has always considered innovation in the financial area as something positive because the ECB is supposed to work in a functioning market economy." The pursuit of technological advancement to enhance competitiveness and support economic growth has been a consistent focus for central banks. Balancing Innovation and RiskYves pointed out that any financial innovation, including cryptocurrencies, is subject to careful scrutiny. "ECB has all the ways to analyze what are the potential benefits for society at large and for the institution, and what are the risks that come with these benefits." Central banks must assess the potential benefits to society and the institution against the associated risks. Unique Risks in the Crypto WorldYves noted the distinctive risks posed by the crypto world. He stated, "you rely on the technology which is highly decentralized and where you have risks which are also risks that you find in the traditional financial world." Additionally, the crypto world introduces governance risks due to its lack of a clear liability structure. These governance issues add to the traditional financial risks inherent in any financial instrument. Challenges in Global RegulationAddressing the subject of global cryptocurrency regulation, Yves acknowledged the problems, saying, "unfortunately, this is very difficult." He explained that international bodies like the Financial Stability Board, G20, and others issue recommendations rather than binding regulations. Jurisdictions are encouraged to implement these recommendations in their national legislation but achieving a universal, comprehensive regulatory framework remains challenging. Systemic Risks Posed by Tech CompaniesYves delved into the potential risks of major tech companies launching successful cryptocurrencies. He noted that these entities, due to their substantial customer bases, could influence monetary policy through their stablecoins. "That could distort the monetary policy transmission mechanism," Yves cautioned. Without direct access to central banks, these companies would rely on intermediaries for liquidity, potentially disrupting monetary transmission. Role of CBDCsThe topic of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) also came up in the conversation. Yves clarified that CBDCs are designed to complement existing financial instruments rather than replace them. They aim to provide central banks with a digital presence while retaining the fundamental attributes of cash in a digital form. The Bitcoin SV DistinctionIn the midst of this insightful conversation, Bitcoin SV emerged as a prominent player. Yves Mersch's perspective sheds light on the unique attributes that make Bitcoin SV stand out in the ever-expanding world of cryptoc
Elas Digital co-founder Mohammad Jaber is carving a unique path in the world of digital consultancy, leveraging blockchain technology to solve complex problems across various sectors. In a recent episode of CoinGeek Conversations, Mohammad shared insights into the Elas approach to business and his journey within the Bitcoin SV ecosystem. As he tells Charles Miller, "Elas is a digital consultancy company that focuses on building its own proprietary technology, using blockchain to help businesses and governments of all sizes to leverage off this revolutionary technology, to solve problems that they otherwise could not solve with legacy technology.” One example of Elas' work revolves around combating counterfeiting in the luxury goods industry. Mohammad explains the collaboration with Ali Beydoun, founder and CEO of Manufact, who approached Elas with an issue. "Manufact facilitates authenticity in the luxury goods market in a way that undeniably gives confidence to all stakeholders in the industry," Mohammad explains. Elas' solution not only safeguards brands but also assures consumers of impeccable provenance. A live demonstration at the London Blockchain Conference showcased how Elas is revolutionizing authenticity verification. While opening a sealed box of Vinyl Cigars, a boutique cigar manufacturer in Los Angeles, Mohammad demonstrated blockchain's tamper-evident capabilities, coupled with digital twin pairing and the technology's ability to record events in real-time. As Mohammad recounts, "we leveraged off the existing hardware and processes and configured it to be able to also interact with the blockchain once a trigger was done, such as opening the box". This innovation not only enhances transparency but also records supply chain events onto the blockchain for future reference. For consumers, accessing product information is a breeze. When Charles inquired, “You don't need any special downloads or anything to make this work?” Mohammad agreed adding, a simple tap, even before purchase, reveals a wealth of information—production date, country of origin, product details, and supply chain history. Another noteworthy collaboration involves Tokneovate, a pioneer in voluntary carbon credit derivatives trades. "Tokenovate wanted to revolutionize the entire financial and trading world. They had some very, very ambitious milestones," Mohammad proudly announces. Elas is executing the first live trade using Bitcoin script and smart contracting on the blockchain - a monumental achievement in the carbon credits trading domain. Despite the demanding workload, Mohammad is thrilled about Elas' growth. "We are attracting a lot of interest and engagement. It's very exciting," he says. As for life in the business world, Mohammad says it's "survival of the fittest." He acknowledges the challenging times but underscores the importance of providing value and maximizing opportunities. Furthermore, Elas unveils a groundbreaking offering—a private ledger on the public blockchain. Mohammad explains, "We use the Satoshis on the Bitcoin network to create private compartmentalized zones." This innovation guarantees impeccable provenance, a crucial factor for governments and enterprises seeking unparalleled transparency. "For certain types of customers, it is a recommendation that we will make," Mohammad adds, emphasizing the flexibility of this solution across diverse industries. As an independent company, Elas is always on the lookout for opportunities and like-minded partnerships: "we're still rolling along, and the future's looking very bright."
Darren Kellenschwiler's long BSV history runs from the tumultuous days of the BCH-BSV split to his current role as a technical lead at the BSV Blockchain Association.On this week's CoinGeek Conversations, Darren takes a trip down memory lane with Charles Miller, recalling the end of 2018 when he hosted Bitcoin meet-ups in London. It was during this period that the Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and Bitcoin SV (BSV) split occurred, resulting in heated debates and ideological divisions within the community. Darren recalled the atmosphere, when "everything was a little tumultuous, and people were taking different ideological stances. There were very strong arguments - over a beer! That's the sort of atmosphere at that time. It was the hash wars era." Darren was on the Bitcoin SV side of the divide, firmly believing in Dr Craig Wright as the inventor of Bitcoin. As he explained, "I had made my mind up years before that this chap, Dr Wright is the inventor of Bitcoin. So I didn't really waste my time with the crowd that were somehow rebelling against him." As Bitcoin SV emerged, Darren took “a leap of faith” despite the ongoing debates about Dr Craig Wright. As he says, “there wasn't a lot of public detail with respect to the evidence for Dr Craig Wright having invented Bitcoin." This period also marked the birth of the "Bitcoin protocol is set in stone" campaign. One of Darren's notable contributions to the BSV community was Baemail, an email application integrated with micropayments. He explained his motivation behind it: "I don't like spam. I hate reading emails that are not relevant to me. So I thought, attach some value to it. We'll create ‘inbox economics', where the highest in the inbox is the person who paid you the most for you to read it." While Baemail gained quick adoption within the BSV community, it faced challenges in achieving widespread usage due to limitations in BSV wallet adoption. Darren's journey continued when he met Brendan Lee from ELAS Digital at a conference in London. Brendan bought Baemail and hired Darren, making him a co-founder of the company. Together, they delved into building Metanet applications and experimenting with hosting entire websites on the Metanet, a concept that was both groundbreaking and esoteric at the time. Today, Darren serves as the technical lead of the utilization value stream at the BSV Blockchain Association. He described his role as multifaceted, involving contributions to various aspects of the BSV ecosystem. He also emphasized the Association's responsibility to ensure that the user experience and businesses built on BSV remain intact and thrive. Darren also highlighted his passion for tackling complex challenges and his role in documenting, analyzing, and improving wallet architectures within the BSV ecosystem. He mentioned the importance of effective communication and collaboration with developers, including discussions with Dr Craig Wright, to advance the ecosystem's growth and development. Darren Kellenschwiler's journey in the Bitcoin SV ecosystem exemplifies the resilience and dedication of individuals committed to the vision of a stable, scalable, and innovative blockchain. As Bitcoin SV continues to evolve, Darren and others like him play a pivotal role in shaping its future.
In a recent episode of CoinGeek Conversations, Charles Miller sat down with Rafal Gelner, the co-founder and CEO of Zetly Fueling Sports, to delve into the exciting world of merging real and virtual experiences for sports enthusiasts, with a particular focus on football. Zetly Fueling Sports is exploring various avenues to create immersive experiences for sports fans, incorporating elements like NFT gating and NFC (Near Field Communication), a wireless technology that enables devices like smartphones and contactless cards to exchange data when close together. As Rafal explained: "let's say a user has a favorite jersey or sports jacket, that will be connected to the NFT. When the user goes into a match or an area where this can be scanned, you can have access to the areas to take part in reward programs". He emphasized the endless potential of this approach, comparing it to a ‘golden ticket' that provides access to VIP areas and other club offerings. Zetly is gearing up to launch a pilot sports metaverse in collaboration with Robert Rice's Transmira and Omniscape. Transmira is creating digital replicas of entire stadiums through photography, allowing users to virtually explore these venues. Zetly wants to make sports experiences more accessible to everyone. As Rafal noted, "Zetly gives access to the people that cannot afford to go to the real match or real stadium." Furthermore, users in the virtual realm will have the unique ability to interact with those attending the real event, and vice versa. This bridging of the physical and digital worlds enhances the sense of community for sports enthusiasts” and "if you've got a family member or a friend who's actually at the game, you can sort of be there with them - or at least see them." Rafal envisions the metaverse expanding not only within the stadium but also encompassing an entire city, making the digital twin concept a tourism attraction. As he explained, Zetly's all-in-one platform will include NFT gating, utilities, sports quizzes, and support for sports clubs to tokenize and engage their fans. BSV (Bitcoin SV) is Zetly's blockchain of choice. For Rafal, BSV's enterprise-level capability and ability to scale exceptionally allows for fast and cost-effective transactions. This choice to build on BSV not only guarantees streamlined transaction handling but also positions Zetly to easily accommodate substantial growth and adoption. Rafal was enthusiastic to share news that Zetly will showcase their innovative solutions and pilot program in Seville, Spain, this month. This opportunity will give them substantial exposure to some of the world's largest and most renowned sports clubs. However, Rafal acknowledged a challenge in blockchain education. "People like the idea but they don't understand blockchain," he noted. To bridge this knowledge gap, he emphasized the need for education and awareness, especially within the sports community. Rafal Gelner's vision for Zetly Fueling Sports aims to engage sports fans through tokenization while giving a full-on immersive experience to users in the real and virtual worlds. With a focus on BSV's capabilities and a commitment to user-friendly subscription models, Zetly aims to revolutionize the way sports enthusiasts experience their favorite events. As Rafal says, "the sky's the limit," and Zetly is well on its way to soaring high in the world of sports technology.
Blockchain technology promises innovative solutions to long-standing problems across various industries. To learn about the work of a blockchain consultant, Charles Miller sat down with IBM blockchain specialist Agata Slater in this weeki's CoinGeek Conversations. In the interview, Agata talks about her role, IBM's approach to blockchain and the implications for Web3 technology. As a blockchain consultant at IBM, Agata focuses on helping enterprise clients design and implement blockchain solutions. This includes everything from identifying use cases and architectural design to the actual implementation and ongoing technical support. According to Agata, IBM assists a diverse range of clients with varying levels of blockchain knowledge. Some approach IBM with a vision for implementing blockchain while others have specific problems they need to solve, with blockchain potentially being just one piece of the solution. Agata emphasizes that the primary goal should always be addressing the client's problems effectively, even if it means advising against blockchain when it's not the right fit. Agata's department, IBM Consulting, remains technology agnostic. This means they can propose solutions from IBM's software portfolio but are not limited to them. They can leverage existing solutions from the market or partner with technology providers to best address the client's needs. For Agata, this flexibility allows them to serve and support clients in the most effective way possible. When it comes to selecting the right blockchain solution, Agata points out that many enterprise clients prefer permissioned blockchains like Hyperledger Fabric due to their focus on privacy, control, and compliance. She acknowledges that while permissionless blockchains have their place, enterprises often require a high degree of control and stability, which permissioned blockchains can provide. Agata also discusses the concept of Web3 what she sees as its four pillars: identity, tokenization, traceability, and payments. She sees Web3 as a promise of what the internet could become and believes these pillars are essential enablers for realizing that promise. While solutions for these aspects already exist, she believes that Web3 can bring them together in a decentralized ecosystem. Interestingly, Agata holds a Ph.D. in Linguistics from the University of Edinburgh, where she studied the language of the Caribbean. She explains how her academic background focused on language and identity, which involved ethnographic research and the analysis of grammatical features in vernacular speech. While her academic journey may seem unrelated to blockchain, she points out that understanding cultural nuances and effective communication are essential skills when dealing with diverse clients and communities in the blockchain ecosystem. While Agata acknowledges the passion around the different blockchain technologies and protocols, she says she refrains from getting caught up in debates over which blockchain is superior. As for her thoughts on Bitcoin SV's capabilities, she acknowledges its potential in terms of scalability. She anticipates that only when more enterprises with substantial scale requirements enter the ecosystem will BSV's full potential be realized.

In the concluding episode of Coingeek Conversations' summer series, Charles Miller engages in a discussion with Amy Bowe, the entrepreneur behind Block Dojo's innovative blockchain platform, GHGBlaze. GHGBlaze is dedicated to assisting companies in obtaining precise assessments of the carbon emissions associated with their products. As Amy says, the need for accuracy is gaining traction as companies are faced with mounting pressures to disclose their carbon emissions. With the growing mandate for these disclosures, there is a heightened legal liability linked to their precision, she points out. Amy also draws attention to regulations implemented in European Union nations, which effectively impose taxes on the carbon emissions of imported goods. To determine the tax obligations for imported goods, a comprehensive understanding of their associated emissions is imperative, she notes. Furthermore, Amy underscores an emerging commercial demand for low-carbon commodity products. To cater to this demand, she emphasizes, it is imperative to be well-informed about the emissions tied to the products one is marketing. GHGBlaze aims to enhance operational efficiency by offering a centralized and standardized solution for the storage of emissions data. This centralized repository can then be accessed by relevant parties to extract the necessary data. The primary source of revenue for GHGBlaze is anticipated to be derived from subscription agreements. As Amy explains, companies keen on accessing this data will be required to pay an annual subscription fee. In addition, GHGBlaze plans to leverage the tokenization aspect of blockchain technology. Under this framework, each emissions data point will be assigned a value based on its perceived utility, thereby incentivizing companies to provide this valuable service. Amy firmly believes that blockchain technology is a valuable component of GHGBlaze. As she points out, “the immutability aspects are valuable but when it comes down to these incentive payments and having effectively creating a market through tokenization, that can't be done with a centralized database," she says. In summary, GHGBlaze, under the leadership of Amy Bowe, is poised to play a pivotal role in helping companies accurately assess and disclose their carbon emissions, while also aligning with emerging regulatory and market demands. Through blockchain technology and tokenization, GHGBlaze aims to revolutionize the way emissions data is stored, valued, and shared within the business landscape.
Dr. Charles Miller is a liver surgeon and the Enterprise Director of Transplantation at Cleveland Clinic. He joins this episode of the Butts and Guts podcast to discuss what you need to know about organ donations and transplantations, as well as perfusion, and how organ availability can be improved.
Carby is the first marketplace for future carbon credits, solving liquidity, scalability and transparency issues of the market. It's CEO and Co-founder Mark Moores believes more carbon projects are needed to fight climate change. Speaking as a father, Mark tells Charles Miller on this episode of CoinGeek conversations, “when you have a child, you re-evaluate things and you think about the future and one thing you've got to think about is what type of planet are we bequeathing our children?” With Carby, a platform that connects carbon projects with carbon credit buyers, Mark is addressing climate challenges by scaling the voluntary carbon market. The platform will help provide project developers with funding to overcome cashflow challenges while giving them access to liquidity solutions in the market. In effect, the platform will encourage project developers to increase the supply of carbon credits as buyers signal a future demand. Project developers will be able to sell NFT's that represent a specific carbon credit in a specific future year. Attached to the NFT is an advance purchase agreement that gives project developers a legal obligation to deliver the carbon credit to the buyer once it's been produced. CyberXchain looks to incentivize ethical hackers using blockchain technology Cybercrime is a massive problem, says Jean Lehmann, Founder and CEO of CyberXChain, a marketplace that brings together ethical hackers and businesses. As defined by Jean, “ethical hackers are essentially professionals, security experts, consultants looking to flag, fix and identify vulnerabilities in computer systems so companies can be better informed of the vulnerabilities and the steps on how to fix them.” As Jean explains, “everyday brings in new headlines of cyber-attacks, we are observing a never ending cycle of cyber-attacks and the cyber arms race between the attackers and the defenders.” Jean's solution is to create a trust and economic layer between ethical hackers and businesses. With CyberXchain, ethical hacking is democratized, made more accessible and cost effective for both businesses and ethical hackers, he says. The platform will have its own token that ethical hackers can directly be rewarded with upon job completion, through their digital wallet. According to Jean, using blockchain technology will improve operational efficiency and create economic incentives . “I look at blockchain as a way to create an economic policy, governance and technology ledger, which is going to bring various types of efficiency and benefits around smart contracts for rule based automation of security events,” he says. After many years of working in cybersecurity, Jean realized that the service model to counter cyber-attacks is not scalable. For his part, CyberXChain will address the cybersecurity challenge while creating economic incentives, ultimately improving security posture.

On the second installment of CoinGeek Conversations Block Dojo series, Charles Miller speaks to two entrepreneurs who are looking to improve business efficiency with blockchain technology. Sports Finex is a platform that enables quicker and cost-effective business deals between financial institutions and football clubs. According to its Founder and CEO, Nico Malgeri, the platform aims to streamline the tedious part of the dealmaking process. “We simplify the whole process of finding opportunities in the football market for financial institutions that want to invest in football,” he says. As Nico points out, Sports Finex solves a recurring problem in football clubs. “When football clubs sell a player, they don't get the money all in one chunk, usually in installments, this process involves many intermediaries and takes a lot of time,” he says. With Sport Finex's invoice financing solution, both parties will be able to close deals faster and players will be able to receive payments seamlessly. In addition, the platform will make use of an AI machine learning system to match financial firms to football clubs while also leveraging blockchain technology to validate stakeholders and store data. As Nico explains, blockchain will provide that extra layer of security to avoid leaking deals to the public. Sports Finex will charge both stakeholders a subscription fee and take a small percentage in commission from both parties. Similarly, BizCrunch facilitates deals but this time, between investors and the businesses they want to acquire. According to its Founder and Head of Growth, Alfie Lambert, the subscription-based platform offers investors information and an analysis of companies that are not listed for sale, but perhaps interested in selling. As Alfie explains, the platform will use algorithms to find data that companies don't usually highlight in their portfolio's. As for the use of blockchain technology, Alfie says “One problem is trust from either end, that's where we want to harness the immutability power of blockchain.” Currently in beta, BizCrunch plans to launch its platform in September.
On this episode of CoinGeek Conversations, two entrepreneurs from London's incubator program Block Dojo speak to Charles Miller about their start-ups and how they can solve real world problems. First up is Ditto, an AI-powered platform that aims to help people combat loneliness. “We are in a global epidemic of loneliness,” says James Kirk, Ditto Founder and CEO. Research suggests that over half the adults living in the United Kingdom experienced loneliness in 2022. The platform which focusses on companionship and mental well-being will utilize advances in AI technology, allowing users to have human-like conversations with Ditto. The platform, which is connected to the internet, will have access to real time information, but unlike Amazon's cloud-based voice service Alexa, it will proactively learn about its users' lives. The platform will ask questions about the users' likes and dislikes, store and remember this information and eventually match up users with other human beings with shared interests and experiences. James is currently working with a team of experts which includes an engineer with expertise in AI technology and a professor working in the intersection of AI and healthcare. According to James, there's a role for technology in companionship. Some studies even show that people feel more comfortable speaking to a machine than a human being. As he points out, technology “is always there, it's always going to say the right thing and it's non-judgmental.” On the second part of the show, Tristan O'Dwyer, Founder and CEO of Vymt, talks about his platform for social media influencers who operate in the gaming sector. As he explains, today influencers receive all the revenue, leaving their followers unincentivized. Vymt takes a different approach by rewarding viewers with a blockchain-based token for discovering and following new talents. A QR code will randomly pop up on the screen while viewers are engaged in a video. The viewer will then scan the QR code and be directed to either a multiple choice question, an opinion poll or a feedback survey based on the content. If answered correctly, the user will be rewarded with a token that has real world utility. According to Tristan, the business model essentially allows users to move around the platform and find influencers. In turn, viewers' attention is distributed equally and advertising revenue is likewise spread out. Catch these Dojo entrepreneurs on the first of four CoinGeek Conversations Summer Special Episodes.
Charles Miller is the co-founder and CEO of Lynk, the world's only commercially licensed satellite-direct-to-mobile phone service provider. Charles is a serial space entrepreneur with 30 years of experience in the space industry. He has served as the founder or cofounder of multiple private ventures and organizations, including nano-racks which is the current world leader in nanosatellite launches. Charles and I discuss how Lynk is providing global connectivity for mobile users with cell towers in space, the history and potential of this market, how their service can save lives worldwide and their focus on sustainability.
Joining us on this week's episode of Coffee with Closers is Lynk Co-Founder and CEO Charles Miller. He discusses how he and his team achieved what many in the telecommunications industry thought was not possible–turning satellites into cell towers in space–which, in the very near future, will enable mobile phone users to stay connected everywhere on the planet.
You may not have heard of Charles Miller, but you should have. He was an early proponent of commercial spaceflight and was instrumental in making it part of NASA's mandate in 1998. He was a senior advisor to NASA on the topic for three years and, both before and after, a powerful proponent as a private citizen, starting a number of space advocacy groups. He recently founded Lynk, a company that connects cell phones to satellites worldwide with their own proprietary satellites. In short, he's one of the original Space Buccaneers and one of the few non-billionaires instrumental in creating the new space age.
