Podcasts about monax

Students from the University of Auckland share what excites and scares them about some of the most well-known Blockchain platforms, including Cardano, Monax and 'Digital Street' Property Management. We also dive into some thoughtful discussion on decentralised governance, grants and treasuries, DAOs (Decentralised Autonomous Organisations) and who would be crazy enough to apply Blockchain in some of the least digitally mature industries in the world (Construction, Legal, Property). Huge shout to Troy Egan, Abhinaw Sai and Mina Cu for the excellent preparation and fascinating insights from some of their own projects, and to Alex Sims from the University of Auckland for bringing us all together.

I chatted with Casey Kuhlman of Monax Labs, he's working on creating new structures around NFT ownership, creating a new Play to Earn marketplace, and thinking of better ways for NFT owners to license and lease their creative property, among other initiatives. This is a great interview for those of you who are interested in play to earn, or who shake your head in frustration every time someone's pricey NFT is stolen... there must be a better way, right?

Casey Kuhlman is the CEO of Monax, a leader in digital legal infrastructure. A respected blockchain-native Software-as-a-Service company, Monax builds decentralized systems and growing ecosystem applications. They describe themselves as dog-lovers and do gooders, ex-marines and mindfullness-advocates, photographers and music-lovers, artists and craftsmen, gamers and cooks, athletes and tinkerers. "We are some of the brightest minds in the open-source community, mavericks in blockchain technology, certified lawyers, software engineers, legal technologists and designers."Prior to co-founding Monax, Kuhlman was the head of legal information systems at the U.S. Open Data Institute. He is also an ex Marine, having worked in West and East Africa. We bumped into one another on Twitter a month or so ago when he said:Dear #legaltech . Dear #blockchain . Can we please. For the love of all that is holy. Just stop. And completely erase the parts of our brain that contemplates #smartcontracts ... Except for those that are deep futurists.I thought this is a guy I need to speak to!In this podcast Casey makes the point that there is a long way to go in advance of assuming systems can make contracting smarter. Not least the digtisation of contracts in the first place.He also foresees a time in the relatively near future that the Balkanisation of the tech scene is storing up problems for customers as they seek to do business with others who operate alternative systems. This is a theme I'm hearing more of - not least in the forums of World Commerce & Contracting (formerly IACCM). The free flow of data is going to become the next major talking point in #legaltech.

The Monax Platform is a contract lifecycle management tool which allows consumers to easily procure lawyer-tested agreements and stay in full control of their business contracting. Harnessing a unique combination of active agreements, blockchain technology and a business process modelling engine, the platform is designed to move business legal obligations into the networked world. Founded in 2014, Monax is transforming the legal industry. A respected blockchain-native Software-as-a-Service company, Monax builds decentralized systems and growing ecosystem applications. It is on a mission to change the way people consume and manage their legal agreements using the Monax Platform, a powerful contract lifecycle management (CLM) suite. The Monax Platform is a comprehensive toolkit comprising an intuitive interface, first-in-class business process modeling engine and smart contract technology to propel CLM to the digital age. Monax is also one of the co-founders of the Agreements Network, which allows anyone to develop, customize, sell and reproduce legal products. Casey Kuhlman is the CEO of Monax and joins me on my daily tech podcast to talk about how they are built a platform for smart contracts and legal applications of blockchain technology. Prior to cofounding Monax, Casey was the head of legal information systems at the US Open Data Institute. A lawyer and international development practitioner for nearly a decade, Casey has worked extensively in the Horn of Africa, including co-founding the first law firm in Somaliland which he was the Managing Partner of for over four years. Casey has also been a New York Times bestselling author, an infantry officer in the Marines, and is an avid participant in open source software development.

Is the traditional form of contracting broken? Are static legal agreements irrelevant in a fast-moving global economy? Casey Kuhlman, CEO of the blockchain and smart contracts company Monax, believes we’re on the brink of a paradigm shift in how we form and execute legal agreements. Kuhlman and Monax are the principal forces behind the launch of the Agreements Network, which he describes as the “legal layer for a networked world.” The Agreements Network provides a base blockchain layer and other tools to serve as an ecosystem to create, distribute, and operate legal agreements. Kuhlman envisions that lawyers will be able to generate new revenue by converting agreements they’ve created into products that can be sold through these networks. These “archetypes,” as Kuhlman calls them, would combine legal text with smart-contract workflows to allow commercial clients to create their own active agreements. Now based in Scotland, Kuhlman is a U.S.-trained lawyer who went to work in Somaliland in eastern Africa and started a law firm there. His work representing companies in transactional matters helped convince him that there had to be a better way to manage agreements. That led him to launch Monax and the Agreements Network.

Most observers of the ecosystem will probably agree that 2015-2017 were the years of the enterprise blockchain. It was during that time that many startups catering to enterprise were founded and funded, including Monax and Stratumn (where Brian and Sebastien previously worked). For the permissioned blockchain camp, adoption would come in the form of enterprise use cases, arguing that public networks carried too much risk, and lacked needed features like privacy. While much of the hype has subsided, large companies in every sector are forming consortia and leveraging blockchain to provide better process traceability and transparency, and reduce their reliance on third parties. We’re joined by Brian Behlendorf, Executive Director of Hyperledger. When Brian was last on the show, he had recently started his role at the Linux Foundation. Now, two years later, Hyperledger has gone from a nascent project to a mature ecosystem of technologies with hundreds of members. With dozens of networks in production, and backed by companies like IBM, Hyperleger is the most widely used blockchain technology for permissioned networks. Topics covered in this episode: The most important developments in Hyperledger in the last two years Hyperledger’s family of technologies Production networks on Hyperledger How Hyperledger Fabric differs from Tendermint and Ethereum The evolution of the enterprise blockchain ecosystem The separation between the permissioned and public blockchain ecosystems Industry use cases for Hyperledger Fabric Brian’s skepticism about ICOs and tokens The growing Hyperledger community and upcoming Global Forum in Basel this December Episode links: Hyperledger website Hyperledger Global Forum http://sdxcentral.com Unbounded - To Network with Networks Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis Railroad - Wikipedia Thank you to our sponsors for their support: Simplify your hiring process & access the best blockchain talent .

Casey Kuhlman - CEO of Monax joins Future Tech Podcast.  The Monax platform is an open platform for small businesses to create, prove, and operate their legal agreements. Monax is pioneering permissioned ledgers and smart contracts and now are building a legal agreements network to allow new and more efficient forms of legal transacting, exploiting the benefits of various decentralized, distributed, and masterless technologies.

My guest this week is Preston Byrne. Preston is vocal critic of crazy prices and projects in the world cryptocurrencies. His background is in the legal world and also as a founder and former COO of Monax, which made the first open-source permissioned blockchain client. As Preston says, he is a “blockchain without bitcoin” guy, who believes that this crypto mania will end in some sort of apocalypse for token holders and ICO issuers .

A smart contract is an automatically executing document that allows the exchange of goods, services, or currency without the use of a middleman. Many lawyers are concerned that this is one of the technologies that will take the job of lawyers. In this report from On The Road, host Jonathan Askin talks to Casey Kuhlman about what smart contracts really are, how they work, and how dual integration can maintain the role of lawyers within the process. They also discuss the greatest opportunities for both seasoned and young lawyers in a tech-enabled legal industry and share tools for those who consider themselves “tech-weary.” Casey Kuhlman is the CEO of Monax which is building a platform for smart contracts and legal applications of blockchain technology.

In the last year, blockchain protocols have matured at an exciting pace. Open source projects like Ethereum, the Eris stack and Tendermint are behind much of the experimentation being conducted at leading companies. These protocols would not be where they are today if it wasn’t for the hard work of dedicated open source developers. One of those people is Rick Dudley. An opinionated and passionate developer, Rick is involved in multiple projects. He works as a DevOps at Monax, works closely with Vlad Zamfir on implementing Casper in Ethereum, is a leading member of the Coala organization and is Founder and CEO of the startup Vulcanize. Rick gives us insider insights on Ethereum and on how the project may evolve, in particular, once Casper is implemented and when more robust, strongly typed language VMs are made available to the protocol. Topics covered in this episode: How Rick got involved with blockchain and Ethereum His views on the Ethereum’s planned transition to Casper The risks and benefits of moving to Casper The subtle differences between Casper and Tendermint The recent break up of the Synereo project Greg Meredith’s work on Rchain and Rholang, and how that relates to Ethereum Potential synergies between Zcash and Ethereum Vulcanize and VulcanizeDB Episode links: Time waits for no one (Medium post) "Method for portability of information between multiple servers patent" Vulcanize.io Coalition of Automated Legal Applications Epicenter episode with Vlad Zamfir Strong and weak typing - Wikipedia π-calculus - Wikipedia This episode is hosted by Brian Fabian Crain and Sébastien Couture.
