Kevin Hurley grew up in a multi-kid house, which is where he got his competitive nature. He used to play 2 on 2 with his Dad and siblings at home. He went to school for electrical engineering, and funny enough, interviewed for a computer science job by accident, effectively stumbling into the trade. Outside of tech, he spends his free time with his fiancé, planning for the wedding, and visiting Manhattan beach for a good walk .Kevin was part of the team that attempted to launch crypto at Facebook. Although that didn't work out, they realized that the backbone of the system needed to be built on something more common - and something that was lightning fast.This is the creation story of Lightspark.SponsorsP0 SecuritySpeakeasyQA WolfLinkshttps://www.lightspark.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevin-p-hurley/Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/code-story/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Before joining Netscape, James held engineering and management positions at Oracle and Borland International."We had a great story in our head of like if we can simply make money flow or value flow fast and free frictionlessly around the world like a lot of good is going to happen but then that's the ending. That's the happy ending. Like, what are the chapters that we're going to write in between to get there? The first one was, 'Well, we're going to build this new infrastructure. Let's start getting it out there and getting it quickened in an area where it's already accepted.' And that's what we did. You know, that was the first one and we worked backwards from that. They're trying to make the story happen. They're not trying to make a list of tasks happen.

David Marcus is CEO & co-founder of Lightspark, a Lightning Network payments protocol. In this interview, we discuss his career in the payments industry and former role as head of Facebook's Libra project, his frustration with the current financial system, how Lightspark is focusing on addressing the challenges of the Lightning Network, the potential impact of real-time payment systems and the scalability of Bitcoin. - - - - David Marcus' journey into the payments industry began at the age of 23 when he started his first company after working at a bank. He built a successful telco company in Switzerland and later started another company focused on mobile payments. His journey took him to Silicon Valley, where his company was eventually acquired by PayPal. Despite his success, Marcus feels frustrated with the state of payments and the lack of an open and interoperable protocol for money on the internet. He believes that money is an important aspect of people's lives and how they measure success. He sees a lot of injustice in the current financial system and feels passionate about improving it. Our conversation covers David's role in heading Facebook's involvement in the payments space, particularly with the development of Libra, a payment system designed to reach billions of people. We talked about the challenges and pushback the project faced, and how the Libra project was a significant part of Marcus' journey in building his current company, Lightspark. David has come to the conviction that Bitcoin is the only form of neutral internet money, which stems from his experience trying to build a technology that could scale and provide a stable form of digital money. He believes that a real-time global payment systems, similar to sending an email or text message, combined with the decentralization and liquidity of Bitcoin, can unleash a significant increase in global GDP. Scaling issues will be a major challenge as adoption increases. Lightspark seeks to help address these limitations by focusing on the usability and operational challenges of the Lightning network, such as liquidity management and route finding. They have developed technology to simplify Lightning's channel-based system, making it easier to spin up and maintain Lightning Network nodes, allowing for faster and cheaper bitcoin movement. There are also other potential innovations that could greatly enhance Bitcoin's use as a payments rail. - Show notes: https://www.whatbitcoindid.com/podcast/building-the-global-financial-system This episode's sponsors: Iris Energy - Bitcoin Mining.

U.S. President Joe Biden has called on G20 leaders to further support the World Bank and other multilateral development banks to increase their ability to support low and middle-income countries. Biden has previously said that developing countries need to reduce their dependence on China and help them recover from the effects of Russia's war on Ukraine. Deputy Treasury Secretary Wally Adeyemo discusses the President's recent trip to Asia, as well as China's economic weakness and Xi Jinping's leadership. After leading PayPal, Facebook messenger, and Meta's payments venture, David Marcus has co-founded Lightspark, a bitcoin-based payments network built on the Lightning network. He shares his take on the current state of crypto and on a new era of a maturing bitcoin.

Before that, he was vice president of messaging products there, where he ran the Facebook Messenger unit; and prior to joining Facebook, Marcus was the former president of PayPal (which had acquired his previous startup).  This episode begins with an interview just to help kick things off and then features a rich set of questions from the audience -- as this originally took place live on stage at our Crypto Startup School 2023. As a reminder: none of this should be taken as investment, legal, business, or tax advice; please see a16z.com/disclosures for more important information -- including a link to a list of our investments.related readings:Regulate apps, not protocols series (2022-2023) - Miles Jennings et al, a16z crypto)What it will take to create the next great Silicon Valleys (2014) - Marc Andreessen (Politico, a16z)Why bitcoin matters (2014) - Marc Andreeessen (NYT, a16z) When one app rules them all: The case of WeChat and Mobile in China (2015) - Connie Chan (a16z)  

David Marcus started a company that was acquired by PayPal, he then became President of PayPal (running the company), then he joined Facebook as VP of the Messenger app, and that's when he started Facebook's Libra project. Currently, he's the CEO and Co-founder of Lightspark, a company that builds out Bitcoin Lightning tech. ------ ✨ DEBRIEF | Ryan & David unpacking the episode: https://www.bankless.com/debrief-david-marcus  ----- From whitepaper to being summoned in front of Congress in 3 weeks…what really happened to Facebook's stablecoin endeavors and what can we learn from it? This episode is a post-mortem of Facebook's highly ambitious crypto project from 2019. They tried to build a stablecoin but the U.S. government stopped it.  Topics covered in today's episode:  1) Facebook's Libra project…why did it fail? Who tanked it? The U.S. gov? The banking lobby?

Does David believe that great companies can be built in Europe? What are the biggest mistakes David made with Zong? How did they impact his mindset? 2. The Secret to Building a Great Company from Mark Zuckerberg's ex-Right Hand Man: Where does David think Paypal lost its way? How did David "brutally" change PayPayl's company culture when he came in? What worked and what didn't in scaling Messenger to 1.5BN users? Why did Diem (formerly Libra) fail? How did David know when to give up that fight? What is David's biggest lesson from working with Mark Zuckerberg? 3. Crypto & AI's Ripple Effect on The Rest of The World: What will be the fallout from the de-banking of crypto?  How does David think the future of AI will impact income equality? If David was in charge of the SEC, what would he do first? What worries David most about the next 1-5 years in the crypto industry? What are the most significant signs that the tea leaves not looking great for the US dollar? 4. How The Best Leaders Hire The Best Talent: Why does David believe that naivety is good for entrepreneurs? Does David believe we'll be in a worse macro position by the end of the year? How has David changed most as a leader over time? What is David's biggest piece of advice in regard to hiring across many different companies?

This episode is sponsored by Circle and NEAR.The massive web of regulations that entangle the legacy financial sector have been, in the recent past, a guidepost for governors to apply to the crypto industry. But the argument for many in the crypto community is that those same rules aren't really applicable to crypto and decentralized finance (DeFi), especially without considerable changes. As the industry matures and seeks more clarity concerning governance and regulation, larger questions arise for the future of crypto commerce. How do we appropriately assess risk in new systems? Should regulators impose stricter constraints on crypto's centralized finance sector?Who has regulatory authority over which assets and why?Today on “Money Reimagined,” host Sheila Warren examines alternative frameworks for regulation and world banking with Jai Massari, co-founder and chief legal officer of Lightspark; and Alexandra Barrage, partner at Davis Wright Tremaine, who also previously worked at the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. -Money Reimagined listeners get a special discount on Converge22, Circle's first annual conference on the blockchain-driven future of money.

Humans have been bartering and trading for millennia, building extraordinarily complex mechanisms of exchange centered on fiat currencies, contracts, and trust. As cryptocurrencies have emerged this past decade, economists and incentive designers have been forced to consider how to construct new forms of currency without the social lubricant of trust. How can we prove that every market participant is incentive aligned with market goals? What contributions can game theory, theoretical computer science, cryptography and microeconomics make to this newly energized field? That's the subject of this episode of “Securities” with Christian Catalini, the founder of the MIT Cryptoeconomics Lab. He and his colleagues fuse the fields of economics and computer science together with the goal of analyzing decentralized marketplaces and applications. It's just the latest endeavor for Catalini, who is also a Research Scientist at the MIT Sloan School of Management, the co-creator of Diem (formerly known as Libra), and the co-founder and Chief Strategy Officer at Lightspark. Joining host Danny Crichton is Lux's own Grace Isford, who invests in web3 and crypto infrastructure and is based in New York City. We'll talk about the growing community of crypto infrastructure analysts, the now-famous MIT Bitcoin Experiment, how academics are translating their work into crypto, and how to think about stablecoins in the aftermath of Luna's collapse this year.
