In this talk in Berlin, Andreas looks at the inner structure of bitcoin and how high-level financial and trust applications are composed from smaller elements. Using analogies from Lego blocks to a chef creating new recipes, this talk highlights the connection between creativity and the flexibility offered by fine-grained components.
Keywords/phrases: Bitcoin vs. Ethereum as Lego blocks, blockchains as a set of ingredients for building applications (ex. smart contracts). Security vs. focus, wide foundation vs. specialization. Compatibility. Synergy.
