Podcasts about reinvent money

Paul Buitink komt langs om te praten over de monetaire oorlog die is uitgebarsten en de nucleaire optie waar de neo-cons zo hard op zitten te wachten. Is de dollar in verval? Ruikt BRICS bloed? Heeft de euro nog een kans? En welke alternatieven liggen er op de loer? In de Xtra vandaag hebben we het over Bitcoin en Goud als serieus alternatief voor een nieuw monetair systeem. Word bazige baas

In deze aflevering gaat Paul Buitink in gesprek met onderzoeksjournalist Marcel van Silfhout. In 2005 maakte Marcel samen met collega's Dirk Bayens en Wouter Laumans de ZEMBLA-reportage “Eurobedrog” over de invoering van de euro. Marcel geeft aan dat de Nederlandse gulden veel te laag is gewaardeerd ten opzichte van de euro fl 2,20371 ipv fl 2,- per euro) waardoor er een enorme afname in welvaart is geweest. Verder vertelt hij over de volgens hem dubieuze rol die politici en multinationals hebben gespeeld bij de totstandkoming van de euro. Marcel schrijft op dit moment aan zijn journalistieke memoires met de werktitel ‘Uitgehold' waarin deze historische ZEMBLA reportage een prominente rol speelt. Het betreft een opensource werkdocument waar het eenieder vrij staat inhoudelijk te reageren en eventueel informatie aan te vullen of toe te voegen. Tot slot vertelt Marcel over zijn nieuwe leven als “boernalist. In Gelderland verbouwt hij onder de naam Graangeluk in samenwerking historische streekgranen en verwerkt deze tot onder meer speciaal bier, streekpasta en streekbrood.

In deze aflevering een unieke samenstelling: Paul Buitink praat met Ab Flipse en Kees de Kort. Behalve dat het bekende opiniemakers zijn, is Ab Flipse een nieuw platform gestart, gryp.it en heeft Kees de Kort een nieuwe podcast bij BNR, van Alle Markten thuis. In de politiek en de media worden volgens de heren de geesten rijp gemaakt voor een oorlogseconomie. Ab is in zijn algemeenheid voor een sterke defensie, maar tegelijkertijd beseft men volgens hem niet wat de gevolgen zijn van een oorlogseconomie en zijn wij als Europa geen partij voor Rusland. Kees stoort zich aan de volgens hem eenzijdige berichtgeving over het ontstaan van de oorlog in Oekraïne en de oorlogsretoriek van veel Nederlandse politici en Nederlandse militair experts. Volgens hem nemen zij in hun beoordeling niet alle feiten in ogenschouw, anders zouden zij tot een andere conclusie komen. Er is ook een middenweg; men zou moeten gaan praten met Rusland als men tot vrede wil komen op de korte termijn. Maar is er dan echt geen dreiging voor Europa of Nederland? Paul vraagt hoe we dan moeten aankijken naar uitspraken op de Russische TV waar er wordt gesproken van “Lissabon tot Luhansk”? En het kaartje van Medvedev waar hij Oekraïne verdeeld over een aantal landen. Op het einde wordt ingegaan op persoonlijke weerbaarheid en preppen.

Web3! It's the latest internet buzzword which encompasses an egalitarian vision of the web that's more reliable, based on trust, and, inevitably, built on the blockchain. This plan for the future is being pushed by startups, venture capitalists, and Silicon Valley bigwigs, all of whom stand to make some sweet, sweet cryptocurrency from a new breed of web app that takes the power from the platforms and puts it back in the hands of the people. This week on Gadget Lab, WIRED senior writer Gilad Edelman joins us to talk about whether the reality of whatever Web3 becomes will ever live up to Silicon Valley's rosy vision of it.

Centrale banken werken al een tijdje aan een nieuwe vorm van geld. Daarmee kan bijvoorbeeld door de bank worden bepaald waaraan je jouw euro wel en niet mag uitgeven en kan het zonder dat jouw toestemming nodig is worden afgeboekt. Of kan centraal worden bepaald dat er een houdbaarheidsdatum aan zit. De mogelijkheden voor politici en bankiers lijken eindeloos, maar wat hebben wij er aan? Wordt er met Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC) een probleem opgelost of gecreëerd? Oordeel zelf.Paul Buitink studeerde bedrijfseconomie en organiseerde van 2014 tot 2016 'Reinvent Money' congressen over monetaire innovatie en over Bitcoin. Hij was een van de initiatiefnemers van de depositobank en heeft in Ecuador de opkomst en het mislukken van de eerste centrale bank munt meegemaakt. "Soft money leads to hard times, hard money leads to soft times" tweette hij vlak voor de opnamen.

Once again, the cryptocurrency Bitcoin is making headlines for rocketing in value. As more companies back it, could it be here to stay? And if so, how is it changing our world? Katty Kay and Carlos Watson look at Bitcoin’s latest price surge and discuss how it and other digital currencies are being adopted around the globe - from the U.S., to Venezuela, to China. Nathaniel Popper is a New York Times technology reporter and author of Digital Gold: Bitcoin and the Inside Story of the Misfits and Millionaires Trying to Reinvent Money. He’s been following the Bitcoin story for nearly a decade, and explains how it is changing our relationship with money. Lily Liu is an entrepreneur who has worked with cryptocurrencies for more than five years. In 2018 a company she co-founded was sold to one of the largest cryptocurrency trading platforms for more than $100m. She says companies are backing Bitcoin as an alternative to gold. A co-production from the BBC World Service and OZY Media.

This book describes how the encrypted virtual currency Bitcoin was created. It also gives a step by step explanation of how virtual currencies became more popular, driven by people with different motivations. In this process, the original financial and power centers were challenged. Many people became wealthy, while others engaged in criminal behavior. This book provides an excellent context for understanding financial technology and the digital economy and has been recommended by both the New York Times and The Financial Times.

A look at the semiconductor market cycle, and how recent results from NVIDIA, Texas Instruments, and AMD have spooked the tech market. We look at NVIDIA’s most recent conference call where they place all the blame on what they call a “crypto hangover.” We then look at two distinct predictions about this latest semi cycle, one from JAG capital, who got it completely wrong, and another from a Supply Chain magazine that got it completely right. We finish up with a teardown of a New York Times article by Nathaniel Popper titled “5 Reasons Cryptocurrency Prices Are Plunging Again” and what he got wrong.

In the past year, the cryptocurrency Bitcoin has jumped in value by nearly two thousand percent — and then, in the last days of 2017, saw a double digit percentage drop. Other digital currencies are seeing similar value jumps, like Ripple, which rose in price by 25 percent this week and is now the second-most traded cryptocurrency. But how do these volatile digital currencies work, who uses them? Are they investments or a way to pay for goods and services? And if you don't own any Bitcoins, how much should you care? This week on Money Talking, Charlie Herman talks about the recent cryptocurrency craze with Nathaniel Popper, finance and technology reporter for The New York Times and author of "Digital Gold: Bitcoin and the Inside Story of the Misfits and Millionaires Trying to Reinvent Money.”

The cyber currency created in 2009 as “a plaything for hackers,” will be used by governments by 2023 and consumers by 2027 by some estimates, Nathaniel Popper, author of Digital Gold: Bitcoin and theInside Story of the Misfits and Millionaires Trying to Reinvent Money, tells a Baruch audience. The digital dough wasn’t worth anything until 2011, adds Popper, when it was adopted by users of the now defunct Silk Road website — to buy and sell heroin and marijuana without the transactions being trackable. Bitcoins, which exist as entries on a digital ledger, had an exchange rate value of more than $500 in September 2016. “Most of the general public still thinks of this as some sort of weird Tamogatchi pet or Pet Rock or something, but this is something that basically every Wall Street bank has a team working on right now,” Popper says.

Host Dave Robertson focuses this show on money and its future. His first guest is Kabir Sehgal, author of "Coined: The Rich Life of Money and How Its History Has Shaped Us." Next, he talks with one of the great disruptors in the financial space, Arkadi Kuhlmann, Founder and CEO of ZenBanx, Inc. who shares his secrets to how technology can be effectively intertwined into the financial sector. After that, Dave speaks with Mick Simonelli, Former Lead Innovation Exectutive for USAA, who talks about what it takes to develop an effective innovation strategy in an established business. The final guest is Nathaniel Popper, author of "Digital Gold: Bitcoin and the Inside Story of the Misfits and Millionaires Trying to Reinvent Money," who talks about the complexities surrounding Bitcoin and what it takes to reinvent our currency.

From the mysterious creation story, to the early development among a small group of cypherpunks, to the emergence of the Silk Road, the collapse of MtGox, to the entry of a tidal wave of VC money and the Silicon Valley elite, Bitcoin’s short history has been action-packed. It’s no surprise that this could make for a riveting story and NY Times journalist Nathaniel Popper’s book ‘Digital Gold – Bitcoin and the Inside Story of the Misfits and Millionaires Trying to Reinvent Money’ is precisely that. Popper joined us for a conversation about his must-read book about the remarkable story of Bitcoin. Topics covered in this episode: How Nathaniel Popper ended up writing a book about Bitcoin Why he chose ‘Digital Gold’ as a title and some of its different connotations Why he chose to focus on the people and stories of Bitcoin rather than the technology The story of the Silk Road and how it played such a critical role in the early days of Bitcoin How Xapo CEO Wences Casares came to play a crucial role in evangelizing Bitcoin among Silicon Valley’s power players The rising tension and passing of influence between the old, ideological guard and the newer Silicon Valley crew Episode links: Get 'Digital Gold' on Amazon Nathaniel Popper's website Can Bitcoin Conquer Argentina article Decoding the Enigma of Satoshi Nakamoto This episode is hosted by Brian Fabian Crain and Sébastien Couture.
