In this talk, Andreas opens with a contrarian perspective. It’s not about “beyond bitcoin”, and you can’t put this technology on a leash to make it more palatable. Bitcoin is the real thing, the revolutionary and disruptive technology that can’t be tamed.
Bitcoin is punk rock and you can’t turn it into smooth jazz just to satisfy the sensibilities of a timid boardroom.
This talk was delivered on July 8th 2015 during the “Beyond Bitcoin, Unleashing the Blockchain” session of Wired Money 2015, hosted by Wired Magazine and Spanish Banking Group BBVA in London, the United Kingdom: https://archive.fo/Vq796
