This episode of the #citizencosmos podcast features Jae Kwon the Founder of Cosmos and Tendermint, and Creator of Gno.land a platform to write smart contracts in Gnolang (Gno). Cosmos is described as an ever-expanding ecosystem of interconnected apps and services, that connect using IBC, the Inter-Blockchain Communication protocol. This innovation enables you to freely exchange assets and data across sovereign, decentralized blockchains. The Tendermint (now called Ignite) consensus framework is a proprietary Byzantine-Fault-Tolerant (BFT) Proof-of-Stake (PoS) infrastructure that allows the Cosmos Hub and its underlying blockchain “network of networks” to function. We spoke to Jae Kwon (https://twitter.com/jaekwon) about Cosmos and: - Censorship proof systems - Organised censorship - The role of the ICF and it's shortcomings - Listen to your gut when trying to determine truth - Misleading naratives - Distilling truth from collective - Factors enabling division - The power of censorship - Division in society is intentional - Decline of humanity and who is responsible - The fork in the road of humanity, where we either unite and strive or stay divided and oppressed - Discourse is the solution to the divisions that are destroying the world - Factions in religion and true Christianity - How did Jae Kwon get to blockchain? - The Power of Semantics - Defining a true Metaverse - ad hominem attacks to discredit voices speaking out against a preferred narrative. - Languages in smart contract systems - Shortcomings of CosWasm - Power of Gno as a tool and programming language and what need it solves - Better Tools will solve problems for the blockchain - Who is trying to keep us subjugated? - The things that are hidden need to become known - The difficulties of building social media platforms on the blockchain with an attractive user experience - The power of History and how we seem to not be able to learn from it - Financial Crisis as a social catalyst for change - Power dynamics of the world - The economic and governmental systems are captured If you like what we do at Citizen Cosmos: - Stake with Citizen Cosmos validator (https://www.citizencosmos.space/staking) - Help support the project via Gitcoin Grants (https://gitcoin.co/grants/1113/citizen-cosmos-podcast) - Listen to the YouTube version (https://youtu.be/sCy5-Ugc74w) - Read our blog (https://citizen-cosmos.github.io/manuscripts/) - Check out our GitHub (https://github.com/citizen-cosmos/Citizen-Cosmos) - Join our Telegram (https://t.me/citizen_cosmos) - Follow us on Twitter (https://twitter.com/cosmos_voice) - Sign up to the RSS feed (https://www.citizencosmos.space/rss) Special Guest: Jae Kwon.

Jon Alexander began his career in advertising, winning the prestigious Big Creative Idea of the Year, before making a dramatic change. Driven by a deep need to understand the impact on society of 3,000 commercial messages a day, he gathered three Masters degrees, exploring consumerism and its alternatives from every angle. In 2014, he co-founded the New Citizenship Project with Irenie Ekkeshi to bring the resulting ideas into contact with reality. Since then, they have been on a mission to figure out how to use our skills - not just to sell stuff - to Consumers, and involve people in the decisions that affect their lives as Citizens. In this engaging conversation, Jon shares some great insights from his latest book Citizens: Why the Key to Fixing Everything is All of Us. We also explore how we can move away from being a passive consumer to being an active agent, how collective power leads to exponential results, the responsibility we have to build our own systems, and what a Citizen democracy means for the government.

In this episode, we talk to Federico Kunze Küllmer, co-founder Evmos - EVM on Cosmos, and CEO of Tharsis HQ - EVM and blockchain interoperability. Evmos is a scalable, high-throughput PoS blockchain that is fully compatible and interoperable with Ethereum. Evmos is a sovereign blockchain built with the help of the Cosmos / Tendermint stack, which means it has the superpowers of IBC, the communication protocol allowing all connected to it, Cosmos chains to exchange data, contracts and tokens. The Inter-Blockchain Communication protocol, a.k.a. IBC; the IP layer for blockchains. IBC is currently the safest and most secure and decentralized way to move assets across different blockchains, unlocking interoperability across multiple chains. Evmos leverages the Cosmos SDK serves as the first IBC-compatible EVM-based chain, bringing composability, interoperability, and fast finality to Ethereum. Federico's Twitter (https://twitter.com/fekunze) We spoke to Federico about Evmos, and: Bridges & Evmos How many layers can a protocol have Cooperation with Celestia and data reliability Migrating data from web2 to web3 User motivation Decentralization The history of Evmos Incentivization of relayers Alumni group at Berkeley Rektdrop, gasdrop and the best tokenomics design The future of EVM Motivation The projects and people that have been mentioned in this episode: | Tendermint (https://tendermint.com/) | Cosmos (https://cosmos.network/) | IBC (https://ibcprotocol.org/) | Evmos (https://evmos.org) | Celistia (https://celestia.org) | Ethereum (https://ethereum.org) | CosmWasm (https://cosmwasm.com/) | If you like what we do at Citizen Cosmos: Stake with Citizen Cosmos validator (https://www.citizencosmos.space/staking) Help support the project via Gitcoin Grants (https://gitcoin.co/grants/1113/citizen-cosmos-podcast) Listen to the YouTube version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0cVU-xn6OA) Read our blog (https://citizen-cosmos.github.io/blog/) Check out our GitHub (https://github.com/citizen-cosmos/Citizen-Cosmos) Join our Telegram (https://t.me/citizen_cosmos) Follow us on Twitter (https://twitter.com/cosmos_voice) Sign up to the RSS feed (https://www.citizencosmos.space/rss) Special Guest: Federico Kunze Küllmer.
On this Episode of The Metaverse Podcast, we're joined by Ethan Buchman, CEO and Co-founder of the Cosmos Network, an ever-expanding ecosystem of interconnected apps and services, connected using IBC, the Inter-Blockchain Communication protocol. Today, Ethan and Jamie discuss making blockchain development available to startups, corporations as representatives of society, platos cave, cybernetic literature, cooperatives and localism, the internet as a revolution of biological communication, and more!
Today on the DIVI Crypto Podcast we are talking with Marko Baricevic, a Developer Relations person of Interchain. Interchain GmbH is building the internet of blockchains. We are responsible for stewarding some of the most foundational infrastructure for blockchain ecosystems. Our work helps secure billions of dollars in value across a variety of major blockchain projects, including Cosmos, and we are pioneering new protocols for interoperability across the entire blockchain ecosystem. Our vision is to create a new interconnected ecosystem, a new internet of blockchains: The Interchain. Our products include Tendermint Core, a groundbreaking, Byzantine-fault tolerant consensus protocol; the Inter Blockchain Communication protocol, a reliable, ordered, authenticated cross-ledger data transport protocol; and Gaia, the software that powers the Cosmos Hub. Cosmos were chosen over other blockchains, like Ethereum, for Marko Baricevic because they have more of a community feel, and not as overcrowded as Ethereum. Many blockchains—Ethereum, Solona, Avalanche, etc.—are essentially isolated. Interchain is working on building on a communication layer for these blockchains across the entire ecosystem, working with IVC (Imperial Valley College), to use the blockchain as seamlessly as one uses the internet today. We participate in research, development, product, community, and social good initiatives which align with our vision and mandate, as well as providing funding towards these projects. In the near to intermediate future, there can be competitions to see which protocols and which designs are used the most, without the average user giving much thought, accessing it as one accesses the internet now. In Tendermint, with Proof of Stake, one must control two-thirds of the network, or more, as opposed to one-half of the network, as is used in Proof of Work, to convince the network something has happened. This is a guard against events such as double spending. Tendermint itself doesn't have a coin for staking. Instead, if one wants to stake, one would use ATOM on the Cosmos network, or Luna on the Terra network, as examples. As the internet uses TCP/IP to communicate between severs and to communicate between the end users, ICP is used as the TCP/IP of blockchain, in that if one develops a blockchain or smart contract, one simply pulls in that module to communicate with another chain. This protocol passes token transfers, NFT transfers, do cross-chain transactions. ICP is a trustless way to communicate between the chains. It is as secure as the chains that the communications are between. More information at https://www.interchain.berlin/ -- Divi is creating the world's first closed-loop, vertically-integrated cryptocurrency ecosystem. Much like Apple's ecosystem is anchored by iCloud, the Divi Project blockchain serves as the core of the Divi network of technologies. Thanks to a keen understanding of the divide that separates the mainstream from the crypto world, the Divi team is able to create solutions to the industry's biggest problem: adoption by non-technical users. Divi's user-friendly, one-click solutions aim to bring blockchain-based payments into modernity with great UX. In this podcast, we will cover all aspects of cryptocurrency, hot topics, and technology as worldwide adoption grows.

Guests:Illia Polosukhin (@ilblackdragon) - debating FOR the motionZaki Manian (@zmanian) - debating AGAINST the motionHost:Richard Yan (@gentso09)In a world where decentralized applications proliferate, will these applications be built on top of a few or many public blockchains? Exploration of this topic would help us understand the merits of the coexistence of many protocols. On the extreme, each dapp can have its own chain, so that the developers/community for each app can have maximal control over the full stack of their product.The guests we have for this episode have essentially voted on their position with their feet. The oligopoly advocate is cofounder of a layer-1 protocol, and the multiplicity supporter is a major contributor to one of the earliest, if not the earliest, blockchains designed with interoperability in mind.Be sure to also check out our previous episodes too, on Bitcoin's store of value status, tokenization and smart contracts, DeFi, bitcoin halvening, China's future in blockchain, and POW vs POS.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:Inter-Blockchain Communication: https://cosmos.network/ibc/Near protocol: https://nearprotocol.com/
