Join us for a thought-provoking conversation with serial entrepreneur and investor Saar Wilf. Saar Wilf is a serial entrepreneur and angel investor. Over his career, he has founded several technology ventures, his first back in 1997. Most notably, he founded Fraud Sciences (acquired by PayPal/eBay for $169m), where he served as CEO and Chief Scientist. He also co-founded ClarityRay (acquired by Yahoo), Trivnet (acquired by Gemalto for $35m), Pointgrab, Deep Optics, Creditstacks, Bzigo, Rootclaim, Immersix, Initiative Q, and wikiwand.com, which serves over 10M users monthly. He was the first investor in Moon Active, Supersonic (merged with Iron Source), Crosswise (acquired by Oracle), Redhill Biopharma, and CallApp. His areas of technical specialty include finance, probability, Bayesian inference, signal processing, machine learning, optics, and computer vision. Mr. Wilf also funded the Brain Preservation Prize, which sparked the first technique that aims to completely preserve an entire human brain for long-term storage. Together with Saar, we engaged in a fascinating and at times sci-fi-like deep dive into the following topics: · Vitamin D & Zinc as therapeutics for Covid-19 · Rootclaim – a company co-founded by Saar that uses probability theories to find truth outcomes and weeds out natural biases, providing clarity and aiming light on truth in today's era of misinformation, deep fakes, and fake news · SCOOP: Rootclaim's determination regarding the source of Covid-19 · Bzigo – a company co-founded by Saar that provides an innovative product that acts as a personal ‘Iron Dome' against mosquitos for your home · Saar's vision for the future · The Brain Preservation Foundation – a unique process to cryogenically freeze the human brain intact to preserve memories and personality traits in the hope that in the future, they can be uploaded to a computer or other technologically advanced device · Human longevity as a solvable problem · The efficiency disparity between leadership in Israel's business & hi-tech ecosystem vs. its public sector & government Links: Saar Wilf on Twitter https://twitter.com/saarwilf?lang=en (@saarwilf) Saar Wilf's profile on https://finder.startupnationcentral.org/angel_page/saar-wilf (Startupnationcentral.org) https://www.rootclaim.com/ (Rootclaim.com )- Calculating Reality https://bzigo.com/ (Bzigo) – Autonomous devices for a pest-free life The Brain Preservation Foundation https://www.brainpreservation.org/ (website) https://www.deepoptics.com/do_site/ (Deep Optics) – developing Omnifocals, the first ever dynamic focal eyeglasses. https://www.lifeextension.com/vitamins-supplements/item01961/enhanced-zinc-lozenges (Life Extension) – Enhanced Zinc Lozenges Watch the https://youtu.be/gYmvnl-TqUA (video) of this episode on Jewanced's YouTube channel.

Unconfirmed: Insights and Analysis From the Top Minds in Crypto
Jackson Palmer, the creator of Dogecoin and the website Are We Decentralized Yet, explains why he thinks the markets suddenly took a nosedive, why it's hard for him to get data on these crypto assets for the Are We Decentralized Yet website -- unless there's a centralized company behind them -- and how Ripple and Initiative Q are somewhat similar. We also covered the perpetual question of how much of Ripple's social media support is real vs. bots, what "fair distribution" of coins means, why mining isn't for "anybody" but for the privileged, and whether or not proof of stake coins could be secure or whether they'll also be susceptible to centralization.

By now, there's a good chance you've received an invitation to join Initiative Q, and also a good chance that you took one look at it and thought "wow, this seems extremely sketchy." And indeed, there's little reason (other than hopefulness) to see the strange new proposed payment system as anything but a pyramid scheme. But it's got people talking, thanks in no small part to its viral marketing scheme, so this week's episode is all about trying to figure out just what Initiative Q really is.

Simon and Colin are in the studio with Alex Batlin, Founder and CEO of Trustology. First up, Bitcoin turns 10. Halloween 2008 Bitcoin was born, although it wasn't traded until a couple of years later we take a look at what BTC has given us in the last 10 years, if it's here to stay and what's in store for the future of Bitcoin. Why “the Institutionalization of Cryptocurrency” is a paradox. Jackson Palmer writes that If you stay up-to-date with the cryptocurrency news cycle, a recent trend you may have observed is the widespread excitement at the prospect of large, traditional financial institutions entering the space. We’ve seen a wave of institutional news lately, and many cryptocurrency enthusiasts express blind enthusiasm at the notion of positive price impact associated with this money flowing in. We look at censorship resistance, trustless transactions, verifiable history and what comes next. Initiative Q: an elementary pyramid scheme with grandiose ideas. The Q token is a centralised private currency issued by Initiative Q. It’s presently worthless, and not exchangeable even on Initiative Q’s own servers but they aspire to it being used in their nonexistent future payment network. At that point, they intend it to be freely exchangeable with dollars. Pragmatic decentralization: How IDEX will approach industry regulations. Decentralization exists on a spectrum, and unless your system or application lacks any centralized parts it can be subject to regulation. Aurora is working to create a fully-decentralized financial system, but the path to getting there requires significantly more control and centralization than the end state. In addition to IP blocking, IDEX will be implementing KYC/AML policies in order to comply with sanctions and money laundering laws. How much have ICOs raised in 2018? Depends on who you ask. Lack of rules, transparency leaves issuance amounts murky. More digital tokens are being issued through direct sales. It remains hard to ascertain the amount of funds a issuer claims it’s raised when no one has to submit any regulated filings or even reveal their identities. Bitcoin Cash hard fork set for November 15th. After the decision to implement a 'pre-consensus' protocol in a long scheduled software upgrade to Bitcoin Cash on November the 15th, its community is split and a hard fork that will see the digital currency split into two separate chains should occur on that date. In July, Bitcoin Cash developer Amaury Sechet published a post announcing the decision to include a new software alteration to a planned upgrade.

Our hosts, Simon Taylor and Leda Glyptis are joined by three great guests: Max Rofagha, CEO and Founder at Finimize, Husayn Kassai, CEO at Onfido and Lisa Jacobs, CSO at Funding Circle. First up, Banking services for the unbanked! Singapore-based Grab started as a taxi-booking app but is expanding into areas like parcel and food delivery and financial services. Grab's partnered with Mastercard to issue virtual and physical prepaid cards tailored to Southeast Asian consumers, with the aim of expanding use of Grab's digital wallet and helping its unbanked users transact online. The companies hope to leverage Grab's 110 million app users and Mastercard's network of 3 million merchant outlets. Customers can top up their cards using cash through agents, drivers and merchants on the GrabPay platform. Most banks will be made irrelevant by 2030-Gartner. Within 12 years time, 80% of “heritage financial firms” will either go out of business or be rendered irrelevant by new competition, changing customer behaviour and advancements in technology, according to forecasts by Gartner. They will be replaced by global digital platforms, fintech companies and other nontraditional players. U.S. state banking regulators sue government to stop “fintech charters”. A body of U.S. state banking regulators on Thursday sued the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) over its plan, to issue bank charters to online lenders and payment companies. The body, the Conference of State Bank Supervisors (CSBS), said the so-called fintech charter was unconstitutional and puts consumers and taxpayers at risk. Follows a similar suit filed by the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) last month. Initiative Q: Scam, pyramid scheme or next PayPal? No one seems to have any idea if it’s a scam or not. Only detailed has come from David Gerard, author of Attack of the 50ft Blockchain. “It’s not impossible they’ll get something up … but pure ideas are near-worthless. The hard part is always execution.” Trendy challenger bank Monzo is Britain’s latest unicorn startup. Monzo secured a £85 million funding round, giving it a valuation of £1 billion, investors include Stripe, Accel Ventures, and General Catalyst. Most notably, the company has also relied on equity crowdfunding in the past and reportedly plans to raise a further £20 million from ordinary retail investors later this year. And finally, a special 50p coin will mark Brexit. A commemorative 50p coin will be issued to mark the UK's departure from the European Union (EU) next year. The coin would be made available in spring 2019 but it’s not yet known exactly what the new Brexit coins will look like. All this and so much more on today's episode of Fintech Insider!

What is Initiative Q? Bitcoin turns 10 years old this week. Square is coming up with a cold storage solution. The team talks about another shady guy named Justin in the crypto space, and they tackle a really fun mailbag section where Karim brings back the 4th grader from a few weeks ago, which he still has as a weapon. Square Cash has been a fun way to interact with Bitcoin for a while now. The CEO of Square is VERY pro Bitcoin, and now he's releasing a system to the open source that will facilitate the use of the payment processor Square. Justin Tabb from substratum is a very interesting guy. He definitely has a checkered past, and SOMEONE really has it out for him. We look at all of the evidence thrown out there to say that this guy isn't really on the up and up. Initiative Q is the newest viral spam that you're getting on Facebook from your friends. Those that aren't in the know might even be coming to you as their "crypto guy" and asking you about it like it's a cryptocurrency. Coinbase and Circle have teamed up to come up with a new stablecoin that should be able to rival the controversial Tether. It joins all of the other options as a strictly better Stablecoin than Tether is - when will these exchanges come around? Bitcoin turns 10 years old on October 31. I know many of us are barely looking at ONE year of learning what Bitcoin is, but it's been here, and it's going to keep being here.
