ZILLIQA— a new blockchain platform that is designed to scale in transaction rates and resolve the issues industries are facing as they seek to use the blockchain for business. We chat with the CEO Xinshu Dong about Zilliqa. For much more check out @Brad_Laurie, my twitter.

As the number of miners in ZILLIQA increases, its transaction rates are expected to increase as well. Specifically, ZILLIQA’s design allows its transaction rates to roughly double with every few hundred nodes added to its network. ZILLIQA is a redesign from scratch and has been under research and development for over 2 years. The cornerstone in ZILLIQA’s design is the idea of sharding — dividing the mining network into smaller consensus groups called shards each capable of processing transactions in parallel.

  1. Brad, thanks for the Video but I am getting a little gun shy of Proof of Work projects and their mining fees, it seems to me to be on its way out. Especially i think after EOS launches their proof of stake. EOS will have thousands of transactions for free. thats cheaper than Visa. I may be wrong but I would like to see you do a video on where you think this new Block Chain 3.0 is going. I respect your research and wanting to know what your thoughts are on the matter. Thanks once again.

  2. I thought he said their new smart contract language was called, GODZILLA !! That is very awesome. Then he said, "no, it is 'called Zilla.' LOLOLOL (sad face) Oh well… but it's still agreat addition to the crypto.

  3. Very good questions and interview…thanks for getting him to answer examples for applications investors do need to know…my first view of your work…i will be back!

  4. @BlockchainBrad : Hi Brad – You're doing a great job. I just have a few suggestions if you do not mind. For upcoming ICOs, please try to interview CEOs before pre-sale stage. Also, please prepare ICOs that might have had the same concept but failed or they are still in progress then ask the CEO, what makes them better than those previous ICOs so that public will get an idea what makes them special. I respect your question when you ask most of CEOs what problem are you trying to solve? – It is great question, but more importantly, we need to know what makes them stand out of previous or current on-going ICOs. For example, what makes Zilliqa better than Alef or Cardano and the list goes on – and go in depth rather than high level overview – so you may ask the CEO to give two answers.. One is non-technical response targeted to normal people and another one, technical response targeting technical people. Finally, it would be much better if you strict the video length to a fixed number, i.e. 20 or 30 minutes for all your videos- You may call them 20 minutes interview rather than very long video. That's my suggestions but at the end, it is totally up to you.. Cheers and thanks again for all efforts you're putting into this.

  5. I don't think a million tsp is even mathematically possible on any decentralized platform considering visa can only handle up to 56k tsp and they are as centralized as it freaking gets so when coins like eos claim that i have serious doubts that its even possible not without sacrificing security and decentralization i'm glad zilliqa is being realistic with around 2k tsp while not giving up on security and decentralization.

  6. Yet another terrific interview Brad !!!! You really are making some connections in the crypto world. The day you have Da Hongfei over for a barbie, I'll make sure I'm there too….. cheers legend

  7. Brad, mate one suggetion. You unearth gem my frined but most of the time ICO is already closed by the time
    i watch video. it would be great to have the video before ICO to reap maximum investment benefit.
    Love your videos man. Keep up the good work.

  8. Hi Brad.. Its been a few days that I have discovered your channel and I am already a fan of your videos… Its pure quality.. Very much appreciate..!! And on this video, I had a question about speed of Zilliqa.. On their website it says their testnet speed is 2.5k Tx/s.. But I guess Rai Blocks already has 7.5k Tx/s.. So I was wondering what's the selling point that Zilliqa had wrt the speed.. Could you please let me know if I am missing something here.. Thanks…
