Podcast appearances and mentions of will martino

Blockchain technology is finally crossing the threshold from speculative promise to practical implementation, and Will Martino is at the forefront of this transformation. As President and Co-Founder of Kadena, Will brings unique credentials to the blockchain space—having built JP Morgan's first blockchain payment system before leaving to solve the fundamental limitations preventing enterprise-grade adoption.The blockchain industry has struggled with a persistent trilemma: how to achieve security, decentralization, and scalability simultaneously. Kadena's breakthrough comes through its innovative ChainWeb architecture, which horizontally scales proof-of-work consensus without corresponding increases in energy consumption. "Right now we have 20 chains that are all in a single network, braided together using proof of work," Will explains. "When we go from 20 to 40, we actually increase our efficiency by 2x for basically no cost."This technical achievement arrives at a pivotal moment. Financial institutions that once insisted on private blockchains are now actively exploring public blockchain integration following BlackRock's successful SEC-approved protocol launch. This shift has created unprecedented opportunity for proof-of-work blockchains like Kadena that offer stronger security guarantees than proof-of-stake alternatives.Beyond the technical architecture, Will's team is addressing critical user experience challenges through SpireKey—a decentralized authentication system inspired by Sweden's Bank ID that transforms smartphones into hardware wallets. Having lived through the early, sometimes painful days of blockchain development (including lost wallet keys worth thousands), Will is committed to making the technology accessible to everyone.Check out kadena.io to explore how this next-generation blockchain is building the infrastructure for crypto's inevitable mainstream adoption.

In this episode, we talked to Will Martino (Co-Founder & President) and Randy Daal (Developer Experience Lead) from Kadena, a project proposing L1 PoW blockchain that offers users a unique combination of scalability and security. Kadena has its own ecosystem with smart contract language PACT, created to enable formal verification and upgradable smart contracts.

Are hybrid blockchains the silver bullet for enterprises wanting to operate in the blockchain world? Join us and Ben Jessel, Head of Growth at Kadena, as we discuss the merits of hybrid blockchains that take on the best of both permissioned and public blockchains.   What is blockchain? A blockchain is a mechanism to have an immutable record. That record can be a record of ownership record or a record of data that can be shared by everyone. It is distributed, which means there's no single owner. Anyone can write to that blockchain and it iss crypto graphically secured, which means that it is tamper proof. There are two forms of blockchains. Public and private blockchains, which really is a determinant on how the users of a blockchain are permitted to collaborate on that blockchain itself.   About Kadena Kadena is a blockchain organisation whose mission is to be the first blockchain there's actually ready for business. Will Martino and Stuart Popejoy are the co-founders of Kadena. Will Martino played a pivotal role in the setup of the securities exchange commissionthat started to oversee aspects of blockchain and then he went to work at JP Morgan Labs. Within that role Will and Stuart interviewed a whole range of stakeholders in 2014 and came to the conclusion that blockchain technology wasn’t ready for prime time utilisation by JP Morgan or any tier one financial institution in terms of speed, security, and scalability. Will and Stuart used the results of their investigation to build a reference blockchain which ultimately laid the foundations for Quorumand for the launch of the JP Morgan Coina few years later. Will and Stuart left JP Morgan with the open source reference permissioned based blockchain to start Kadena. Now they’re getting ready to launch the public version of this blockchain on the 30thof October thus giving them these two platforms, a public blockchain and a private blockchain, which speak the same language around their smart contract language.   Differences between public and private blockchain What fundamentally differentiates a public and a private blockchain is around who has access to the blockchain and the actions they are allowed to perform. A public blockchain, like Bitcoin, is available to everyone and a new user is able participate in the consensus purely by downloading a wallet and submitting a transaction. As the users are anonymous there are very low levels of trust. The way public blockchains enable transactions to complete without any of that trust, is through mathematics. Its consensus capability is a an incentive model, that de-incentivizes unruly actors by making it very expensive to subvert the blockchain. In the case of Bitcoin you have proof of work which requires the need to solve a computationally intense mathematical problem, that would cost a lot of money to complete. Now, as each block is added in compounds the difficulty. So while it may be a little difficult to subvert the most recent block, to subvert one that is 10 blocks behind, you not only have to subvert that block, you have to rewrite history for all the corresponding blocks that come afterwards, which means that they are linked together using this mathematical equation, which is very time and resource intensive. And that becomes incrementally harder over time. Proof of stake, has a slightly different incentive model, which is about staking money that you could lose if you're found to be subverting the network. So there's an incentive model, which inherently stops the subversion of the network. And that's the trade off. The challenge with that, in particular, for tier one financial services clients, is they have some concerns that number one, this is computationally very intense, and therefore expensive. And then secondly, because it is a fully anonymous network, they cannot guarantee that those participating in the network are doing so for nefarious purposes,

What do companies expect in a Blockchain solution? Well, Kadena founders Will Martino and Stuart Popejoy have been around the “block” a few times. After fate had them meeting at JP Morgan’s Blockchain Center of Excellence, researching the technology's financial services potential and delivering the JPM coin, they moved on to deliver an enterprise-level solution that is going to become the secret sauce to many corporations. They developed Kadena’s first private blockchain protocol, ScalableBFT, and since then, Kadena’s team has built tools for widespread public adoption as well, such as Pact, a simple and safe smart contract language, and Chainweb, an upcoming proof-of-work protocol to scale the public blockchain. These breakthroughs power Kadena’s hybrid platform that spans both private and public blockchain solutions, showing that these guys really know how to build solutions for companies, allowing them to gear up for the future using a form of blockchain technology unlike any other.

You get to discover what they’re working on, which is a new programming language for smart contracting and scalability and use cases for enterprise blockchain solutions. "It's all about aligning the incentives of the three core users of the platform. You have miners who want more adoption, they want a bigger network doing more transactions a second. You have users who don't want to pay high fees. They want high security, they want decentralization, they want trustlessness, they want openness, and they also don't want to pay fees. And businesses who want to know that if they start using this platform and they start congesting the network, because think Cryptokitties - it launches and Ethereum gets clogged for a week, they want to know that the network can grow to support the throughput they need because they found their product-market fit."   "Overall, where I see the whole space going, is the sharing economy - the Enterprise sharing economy. This is one where you're redefining how consumers and businesses interact." —  Will Martino   Production and music by Derek Bernard - haberdasherband.com/production Host: Trent Lapinski - https://trentlapinski.com   https://hackernoon.com/   https://community.hackernoon.com/  https://contribute.hackernoon.com/  https://sponsor.hackernoon.com/  https://podcast.hackernoon.com/  https://twitter.com/hackernoon/  https://facebook.com/hackernoon/ 

Sara is joined by Tim Swanson, Founder and Director of Research at Post Oak Labs, this week to talk about the latest and greatest news in blockchain. First up, we take a look at Bitwise ETF filing - The ‘real Bitcoin market. A majority of bitcoin trading volume is artificially created by unregulated exchanges, according to Bitwise Asset Management. The firm attached a report, in a bitcoin-based ETF submission, in which it collected and analyzed Bitcoin trading data, over four days in March, across 81 cryptocurrency exchanges. Tim comments that exchanges located in certain areas have a habit of exaggerating their volume and Sara unpacks some of the deeper issues this raises (01:18). Next we talk about the failed ICO trying to flog itself on eBay. For as little as $60,000, a slice of history could be yours. That's the starting price in an eBay auction for all the documents, all of the branding, all of the strings of 1s and 0s, and all the broken dreams of an initial coin offering (ICO) that never managed to sell a single token. Sarah comments that she has no idea what the company does because it hasn't built anything and Tim adds that they have no capital which is why they're selling on eBay (8:01). Colin may be gone but he's still managed to do an interview with Alex Batlin, Founder and CEO of Trustology for a scoop on an annoucement they just had to share (15:33). We also have a great Tweet of the Week from @antony_btc on Deconomy (25:36). Colin also spoke to Will Martino, CEO and Founder, and Tony Pham, Lead on Marketing at Kadena to talk about blockchain, smart contracts and hitting the reach goals for the industry (26:35).
