“Emptiness doesn't mean there's not a self. It doesn't mean you're not a person. It's the discovery that what we really are is an interdependent web of complex processes that arise in our body, in our emotional being, in our minds and in the cultural patterns in which we are enmeshed. We tend to experience ourselves as a solid, stable, independent self. But the practice of emptiness shows us that we are part of a much greater process of interdependencies that are constantly changing, moving, evolving into something new.” —Craig HamiltonIn “The Practice of Emptiness: Dissolving the Illusion of Solidity,” Craig explores the spiritual practice of Emptiness, examining its ancient wisdom and contemporary relevance to enrich both meditation and everyday life.The concept of emptying out or becoming empty of self finds its origins in Christianity and Buddhism. Yet for many of us today, the idea of Emptiness might initially seem unappealing, conjuring images of a cold, meaningless void. However, in this episode, Craig dispels these misconceptions and emphasizes that the true essence of Emptiness is far from nihilistic or devoid of significance.When properly engaged, the authentic practice of Emptiness serves as a powerful tool for breaking down our thought structures and dissolving their illusion of solidity. This act of emptying out creates a sacred space within, making way for an overflowing sense of fullness, depth, and sacredness to emerge. Through this practice, we can connect more deeply with our spiritual selves and the world around us.This episode includes a guided meditation exploring this technique, so we encourage you to find a time to listen when you won't be interrupted.If you're interested in exploring more of Craig's approach to meditation, you're invited to tune in to a 90-minute online workshop Craig will be hosting called Meditation 2.0 – The Miracle of Direct Awakening.

Alejo Pinto, the Chief Growth Officer at the Apotos-based Pontem Network, a former growth specialist at IBM, and the man trying to break Solidity's monopoly. Despite being one of the first and widely used blockchain-native programming languages, Ethereum's Solidity is often compared to JavaScript. While it's perfectly functional and can serve its purpose, large institutions are unlikely to build their mission-critical applications, mainly due to its susceptibility to security vulnerabilities. To offer a more robust institutional-grade alternative, Pontem has built Lumio, a high-performance Layer-2 protocol based on Move VM — which was initially developed to provide a link between the highly regulated Diem ecosystem and the rest of the blocivan@ivanontech.comkchain world. By leveraging Move VM, Lumio effectively addresses numerous security limitations of Solidity and Rust. Pontem aims to break the existing Solidity monopoly — enabling organizations building on Aptos — including Google Cloud, Mastercard, Microsoft, and Aptos' investor Franklin Templeton — to seamlessly deploy on Ethereum without constraints.

Classical, monolithic blockchains are inherently limited in their throughput due to their single-thread execution architecture. Modern VMs attempt to solve this issue through parallelisation being implemented from the get-go. Movement Labs employs the Move-VM to build a ZK L2 rollups on Ethereum, thus also deriving its security. Through parallel execution threads, Movement achieves a theoretical TPS of 160,000 while also ensuring sub-cent transaction fees.Topics covered in this episode:Impressions from ETH DenverRushi's backgroundMove vs. SolidityEVM compatibilityParallelisation vs. intent-based transactionsSecurity and parallel state transitionsTransitioning from EVM to newer VMsBerachain's approach to EVM-compatibilityMovement Labs' tech stackDecentralising the sequencerMovement's M1 and M2 chainsCelestia DA and the Dencun upgradeRestakingBitcoin L2sIBC-compatibility and USDC on MovementEthereum x Cosmos convergencedApps on MoveEpisode links:Rushi Manche on TwitterMovement Labs on TwitterNebular Podcast 'Ethereum x Cosmos Convergence'Sponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

A group of young Serbians came together in 2016. They shared a love of blockchain and bitcoin, all were self confessed nerds and they enjoyed working together. They wanted to stay working together and they wanted to bring Web3 (although it was yet to be named that) to the masses. In 2018, they formalized that relationship and formed Bloxico. Bloxico is developing Reputation Score on Flare. Dusan Vukadinovic, product manager of Bloxico & Reputation Score, explains that he is proud to be Serbian; for such a small country they enjoy a deep tech reputation. "I reckon that most major Web3 projects have a Serbian employee." As they formalized the company in 2018, they found more work came to their door, employee numbers grew and soon wanted to build their own project, not just provide IT services. "We wanted to build a tool that would make people happy to use blockchain and to narrow the divide between groundbreaking innovations and practical usability." Greening of Bitcoin The company began as a small team of six people. Today, it employs more than 30 people full time and moreover employs a further 40 people on a part time basis as and when projects demand extra hands on deck. The origins of Reputation Score were based on a real need for a rating system to reduce barriers to entry for the ever-complex world of blockchain infrastructure and dapps. "As we worked on different ecosystems, protocols, DAOs and even assets, we were always searching for partners, entities, validators and oracles that can be trusted. "We often asked ourselves - can we trust this individual or entity? Or what kind of risk might be associated in working with them? And we're nerds so we looked at the idea of rating. Our CEO Nenad Tanaskovic has 40 years' experience and steered us towards the rating systems set up by traditional fintech companies such as Bloomberg or Reuters." For Vukadinovic the concept of constructing a rating in Web3 made a lot of sense. Despite the absence of existing models, blockchain would provide transparency required. "It's weird to think a rating system had not been established before. There is a lack of regulation for sure, but the possible implementation of such a rating system could easily be done and ratified." Vukadinovic and the rest of the Reputation Score team set to work. They had just met with Flare who expressed similar ideas - based on creating trust and decentralized reputation ratings as a means to encourage more onboarding of users in a safer way. Building Reputation Score for the Flare ecosystem, which is an EVM blockchain, meant the team uses Solidity for writing smart contracts, Typescript for the backend and React for the frontend. For Vukadinovic, the resulting rating system is interesting. "People and entities are gauged by their activities and the rating reflects that - so I may prefer to work with someone or something who does more of what I consider important, rather than more generic interactions." For someone to access the system they need to use their EVM address and a decentralized ID. The users create their decentralized identity on the reputational score platform so they can interact with the system. "Everything is transparent, even down to how each decentralized identity votes. Currently we base the rating on an algorithm and that will be updated over time. "Also, if you are a service provider, a validator, partner or an oracle then you get additional points." Vukadinovic points out that it is a numbers game. "If there are only two people involved then it's easy to be scammed - but if there are millions of people using it then scamming becomes impossible. Each parameter contributing to the reputation score is derived from activities associated with an address on the blockchain. Consequently, the susceptibility of the reputation score product to scams is directly proportional to the vulnerability of the underlying protocol - it relies on the blockchain decentralization paradigm.." Users set up their de...

My guest today is Nick Dodson, co-founder and CEO of Fuel. Fuel is a moduler execution layer that's designed to facilitate performant L2 rollups. On this episode, Nick and I discuss the history of rollup design, the scaling challenges facing the EVM, and how his years of experience writing Solidity, EVM Assembly, and participating in the EIP process contributed to Fuel's design. We dive into Fuel's underlying UTXOs model, which allows Fuel nodes to validate transactions in parallel across multiple cores simultaneously. Finally we discuss Predicates, which are stateless conditions that can be attached to Fuel transactions, allowing users to pay for gas in ERC20s, SOL, or other coins, and to sign transactions with different eliptic curves like BLS, p256, or EDDSA. It was great learning more about the exciting technology Fuel has been cooking up for the past few years. I hope you enjoy the show.

Commonplace Quotes: Revolutionaries always hang their best friends. Christopher Hollis It is easy to forget that the man who writes a good love sonnet needs not only be enamored of a woman, but also to be enamored of the sonnet. C. S. Lewis For the end of imagination is harmony. A right imagination, being the reflex of the creation, will fall in with the divine order of things as the highest form of its own operation; “will tune its instrument here at the door” to the divine harmonies within; will be content alone with growth towards the divine idea, which includes all that is beautiful in the imperfect imagination of men; will know that every deviation from that growth is downward; and will therefore send the man forth from its loftiest representations to do the commonest duty of the most wearisome calling in a hearty and hopeful spirit. This is the work of the right imagination; and towards this work every imagination, in proportion to the rightness that is in it, will tend. The reveries even of the wise man will make him stronger for his work; his dreaming as well as his thinking will render him sorry for past failure, and hopeful of future success. George MacDonald Earth's Secret by George Meredith Not solitarily in fields we find Earth's secret open, though one page is there; Her plainest, such as children spell, and share With bird and beast; raised letters for the blind. Not where the troubled passions toss the mind, In turbid cities, can the key be bare. It hangs for those who hither thither fare, Close interthreading nature with our kind. They, hearing History speak, of what men were, And have become, are wise. The gain is great In vision and solidity; it lives. Yet at a thought of life apart from her, Solidity and vision lose their state, For Earth, that gives the milk, the spirit gives.

Charles Miller is once again exploring innovative ventures in the Block Dojo incubator program on this week's CoinGeek Conversations. Rafaela Azevedo's The Chain Academy trains developers for Web3; Kenneth Kelly's Revested streamlines real estate transactions; and Marcus Odubonojo's Motion Shield simplifies car accident reporting— all showcasing the potential of blockchain technology. Kicking off our series of interviews, we begin with Rafaela Azevedo, the founder of The Chain Academy, who takes a unique approach to training developers for the rapidly evolving Web3 space. Rafaela's journey into the tech industry is influenced by her tech background, as she explains that “all my family is in tech." Her parents, both developers, played a significant role in shaping her passion for technology. Growing up surrounded by the world of coding, Rafaela embarked on her coding journey at a very young age. "I was coding when I was six years old with my dad. I just got really passionate about the idea and just went for it," she recalls. The Chain Academy is an educational platform for developers entering Web3. The training program not only focuses on individual skill development but also aims to link developers with potential employers. “They are going to be skilled up to collaborative commercial projects where they can actually have their first experience and create a portfolio," she notes. The Chain Academy offers a unique learning experience with a step-by-step approach, short videos and text, catering to individuals with varying attention spans. In addition, AI technology will be used to provide instant feedback to developers, assessing their strengths and areas for improvement. The Chain Academy's roadmap includes a commitment to addressing various blockchains, starting with Solidity and Ethereum and expanding to others such as the BSV Blockchain. As for the company's revenue model, Rafaela says it will include a subscription model for developers and fees for businesses posting projects. Next was Kenneth Kelly's Revested, a blockchain-based business that aims to simplify and expedite the process of buying and selling houses. Kenneth is keen to point out that Revested utilizes blockchain technology to eliminate old practices in the real estate industry. "The problem in the industry, going back to my grandfather's time, would be that one in three property sales fall through, and on average, it takes between three and six months. So, you know, huge problem within the space."Revested addresses these challenges by streamlining mundane processes, especially with compliance and regulation. As Kenneth explains, "KYC when you come on to Revested is simple.. you enter your name, email, passport, and take a photograph of yourself. We then upload your property title deeds, which we can cross-check using machine learning against the land registry document."Blockchain technology will be used in the digital exchange for property transactions. "We're building a custom layer two platform, essentially a digital exchange to connect a wallet dependent upon the currency and to be able to trade that currency in and out of the exchange."Kenneth envisions a future where property tokenization enables instantaneous transactions. "You could be down in the pub on a Friday, and you could be selling your property in minutes instantly," he says. However, Charles raises concerns about the potential risks and the necessity for a thoughtful decision-making process in real estate transactions. Kenneth responds by highlighting the role of machine learning in scanning title deeds for underlying issues, saying, "there's new machine learning models that are really pushing boundaries within the legal space."When asked about the business model, Kenneth explains "we would take a percentage of transaction fees based o
