Dr. Weijia Zhang is a renowned expert on interoperability, bridges, and is the Regional Head of China for the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance. So he knows a thing or two about what it takes to bring Web3 into production.Interoperability was supposed to be the great accelerator (ahead of privacy tech) for Web3 to really scale and connect apps and ecosystems for the greater good. But have we achieved this yet? Are bridges the answer, or can we do better?In this show, we discuss:- The ideal conditions for use of Blockchain technology- The current technologies and maturity of 'interoperability'- Enterprise use cases Dr. Zhang is most excited about- The role and importance of organisations like EEA and Linux Foundation in driving adoption- What more is needed to see widespread usage of Blockchain technology

As blockchain technology seeps slowly into the traditional financial services ecosystem, it is offering new opportunities through tokenization and decentralized finance (DeFi). Today's episode of the Tearsheet podcast hosts Paul Brody, EY's Global Blockchain Leader who shares his expertise on these developments. Paul is focusing on the promise of public blockchain and the challenges surrounding privacy. He is also the Chairman of the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance. Brody's unique roles provide a distinctive perspective on blockchain adoption in enterprises. Reflecting on his decade at EY, Brody explains, "One of the things I'm most proud of is how little our strategy has evolved. We've consistently believed in the value proposition of public blockchains." EY's blockchain initiatives center around asset tokenization. It focuses on privacy-focused solutions and enabling enterprises to scale blockchain use effectively. Addressing misconceptions, Brody highlights a critical distinction. He says, "A lot of people don't realize private blockchains have no privacy. They're centralized systems without the benefits of a decentralized ledger." This belief underpins EY's commitment to public blockchains, which he argues are the only viable path for enterprises. The big ideas 1. Tokenization is transforming B2B transactions. “Every transaction comes down to tokenizing money, tokenizing the stuff. And automating the terms via smart contracts,” says Brody. 2. Public blockchains offer a compelling value proposition. “Private blockchains have no privacy,” Brody explains. He emphasizes the importance of decentralized, public systems for scalability and security.   3. Privacy is essential for enterprise adoption. Brody highlights the need for privacy layers. He states, “Enterprises require privacy to share sensitive information securely on public blockchains.” 4. DeFi innovation is influenced by market conditions. Brody observes, “Lower interest rates make decentralized finance tools much more appealing. They do so by doubling potential returns compared to traditional options.” 5. Regulatory clarity will drive enterprise adoption. “The true race begins once the rules are clear. Until then, enterprises will hesitate to commit fully to blockchain-based solutions,” Brody asserts.

In the first episode of our new season of Web3 Innovators, our host Conor Svensson is joined by Paul Brody, Global Blockchain Leader at EY where he drives EY's initiatives and investments in blockchain technology across consulting, audit, and tax business lines.Paul is also a Board Member of the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance and prior to working at EY was Vice President and Global Industry Leader of Electronics at IBM.Episode highlights:The prototype system, ‘Adapt' that Paul built and how IBM not wishing to take it further inspired him to leave and join EYHis role in developing blockchain within the organisationWhy Paul is such an advocate for public blockchainWhy there is a lack of privacy with public blockchains and the problems this causesThe reasons you can't migrate applications built on private blockchain to publicWhy he sees blockchain as transformational technologyThe issues around forming and working with a consortiumThe differences between permission and permissionless blockchain and the problems Paul sees with permissionedThe key differentiators between trust anchors and trusted third partiesThe two initiatives; Nightfall and Starlight Paul is currently working onHow Paul believes the future landscape for Web3 technologies will lookKey Takeaways:We had created this product, we had pitched it to IBM leadership and they were not interested. They didn't want to go any further than the prototype, and that was at the point where I parted company with IBM because I wanted to do this. - PaulWe see this over and over again, people created these centrally run private blockchain business models and they just didn't work. - PaulWe've had this vision of a value proposition where you can basically take any kind of business application and run it on a public blockchain, any kind of B2B transaction. But the reality has been that we can't do it. - PaulThere will be many stablecoin firms, there will be many audit firms, there will be many external data sources at Oracles. We will have to decide to trust some of them in how we build our transactions, but none of them will become central intermediaries. None of them will become monopolists. None of them will have overwhelming power in the ecosystem. - PaulMy goal is that in January of 2023 we will launch the first production versions of both Nightfall and Starlight as production betas on the public Ethereum main net. - PaulWhat's really cool about X.509 certificates is they are themselves public open standards supported by many different third party providers. So nightfall will remain truly public and permissionless. - PaulResources:Connect with Us Join the Web3 Innovators community and engage with like-minded individuals passionate about the potential of blockchain technology.Contact Web3 Labs:Twitter | LinkedIn | Instagram | Facebook | Discord | Tiktok • Explore Web3 Labs: Web3 Labs specialise in web3 solutions for enterprise. • Email Web3 Labs • Get Conor's latest thoughts on Web3 and where we're headed.

Is Ethereum the revolution to the cryptocurrency world that Bitcoin fell short of? Learn how this cryptocurrency has raised the bar on blockchain technology, now! Many are calling Ethereum 'Bitcoin 2.0' and for good reason! Bitcoin is a bit like a rudderless ship with two separate teams (the developers and the miners) trying to take the project in different directions. Ethereum has a clear vision, a fired up team and truly holds the potential to revolutionize digital business in the new blockchain enabled world. The best part is that Ethereum is focusing on creating a platform that can be leveraged by developers in a way that decentralizes control from the mega corporations and banks which make for a potentially 'better way to do business' When there is a better way to do business that can offer better deals for the users, potentially revolutionary things can happen. This is why many mega corporations have joined the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance so they can be on the leading edge of integrating this blockchain technology into their business structures: entethalliance.org/ Although Bitcoin is a bit older and has a better 'brand name' I believe the tech behind Ethereum is far superior.

Between re-constructing TheDAO and building his own governance platform Governex (once Boardroom), ConsenSys developer Nick Dodson is building a portfolio of powerful Ethereum based tools. Disappointingly, the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance instantiation of Governx is not up for discussion. However, we do dig into the abstract structure of governance tools, data-driven design, the flaws of The DAO, and what can be salvaged from that project. Ares DAO is a joint project between Nick and shadowy Ethereum community member Dino Mark. By applying the research conducted during the development of Governex, and lessons learned from watching DAOs in the wild, the two man team has repaired and refactored TheDAO. In doing so curators have been removed, direct democracy has been implemented, and the proposal deposit has been raised significantly.  The team plan to launch a charity DAO to test the Ares DAO’s functionality. We also chat about the demise of the nation state and the role of tribalism in the evolution of blockchain governance.  consensys.net consensysmedia.net etherreview.info https://itunes.apple.com//podcast/the-ether-review/id899090462?mt=2

In this episode In the third of our three part Blockchain Special, Simon and Colin are joined by some very special guests to discuss EEA, ZCash and the potential similarities between blockchain and the rise of cryptocurrencies and the dot-com bubble in the 90s, and asks the question: “Why should we be paying attention?”. They also debate the anonymity of blockchain and user privacy; and centralisation vs decentralisation in blockchain APIs – do we still need the middle man? In the second half they discuss highly topical news stories such as the EU's pledge to invest in blockchain research and Theresa May's proposal for greater internet security and access to public data – is she asking for the impossible?  Like what you heard? Look out for Blockchain Insider – a dedicated podcast to all things blockchain, coming soon!
