It's time for the world's new favourite game show, The Crypto Game!
To a hammer, every problem is a nail, and to a blockchain person, every problem is a blockchain problem. To play the crypto game, one of our hosts has to toss a problem at the other, who then has to use blockchain in such a way as to address that problem! Fun for the whole family!

Welcome to part two!
I was recently part of an academic research forum in Perth Australia where I had the honour to sit on a panel with Rob Hanson. Rob wrote a highly influential report on blockchain and its application and influence in the Australian context, and we had a long conversation about the future of blockchain, how people in academic and state institutions are warming up to it, and how it can be applied, especially in an African context.
We got pretty deep into the conversation, and we went on long enough that it justified making this into two podcasts. We pick up the conversation talking about whether regulatory bodies and academics are fast enough to keep up with the blockchain world.

Happy fall everyone! The school year begins, Nathan and Neal are back in the saddle, and Ether is taking a pounding, even more than Bitcoin and other cryptos. Is it fate or is there something larger at play, and what can pull the market out of its slump?

The glitz and glamour of show biz! Demand Film is using crypto to disrupt the independent film industry. I had the opportunity a few weeks back to attend the red-carpet screening of the movie Schneeflockchen and interview the CEO of Demand Film, David Doepel. David and his team are using crypto to decentralize independent film promotion, removing inefficient middlement and rewarding people who are interested in and support these films, and it is an interesting example of how a niche yet traditional business can be completely modernized by blockchain. Also the film was a lot of fun.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Promotional announcement:
If you would like to see the movie Schneeflockchen, I really enjoyed it. It's in 3 languages, a darker version of "Stranger than Fiction" that's set in an alternate timeline of Berlin. I'm biased because I am friends with David, but that aside it's still a fun film.

It's been a week and a half, but no we didn't forget about you. What we forgot was our podbean password to upload all the episodes we had prepared while Nathan was travelling! Oops.
But now we're back and as we get rolling into September here's Nathan describing what's been going on in his trip to Perth Australia for the Africa Down Under conference.

Today just a few weeks after getting to meet Bradley Zastrow I had the honour of speaking with Ryan Taylor, the Dash Core CEO. Ryan comes from a Wall Street background and has important insights into how big institutions view crypto and what the shortcomings of existing payment systems are. It was a fascinating conversation, thank you so much Ryan for coming on the show.

People are anxious for insitutions to start investing in Bitcoin for good reason - the influx of money will drive the price to the moon. But what are the real barriers to institutional adoption? How should large companies manage their private keys, deal with insurance and custody, or protect themselves against confidence scams? And is the influx of institutional money even in line with the original Bitcoin vision of a decentralized currency without the need of trusted third parties?

Scientific research is very centralized, which means the incentives for academic researchers are not aligned. Anita Schjøll Brede, CEO of Iris.Ai is trying to change that. With Project Aiur, Anita and her team aim to shake up the world of academic publishing, meaning increased accessibility to research, incentives for proper peer review, incentives for publishing undesirable results, and more! It's a big vision for the world of academia, but is academia ready for her?

There may be a crypto winter but the big boys are still playing. The owner of the NYSE is launching Bakkt, a crypto exchange that has the backing of Microsoft, BCG and Starbucks. Does this mean mainstream acceptance of crypto? Could this mean a first move toward security token exchanges? Or nothing more than a quick pilot project with a lot of hype?

As the world swelters, Neal and Nathan take to discussing one thing that may be cooling: corporate interest in blockchain. Reading through a Bloomburg article on the topic, we look at reasons for the slowdown, and the challenge corporates have of understanding what blockchain is all about in the first place.

Bitcoin is revolutionary technology because it allows a way to electronically transfer funds without trusting a third party. But what happens when you need to interact with the off-chain world? Or when you have a large amount of crypto assets sitting on a bookshelf vulnerable to theft? Crypto startups need bank accounts, insurance, brokerages, custodial services and more, and financial institutions are reluctant to work with crypto startups because of the regulatory and financial risks involved.
Today we talk with Lorne Lantz, CTO of Formosa Financial, who are working with banks and crypto startups to add a layer of trust to this trustless industry.

The summer has been good for Bitcoin, so far, and people are talking about the potential influx of institutional money with the advent of crypto ETFs.
But are we jumping the gun? Can institutional investors reasonably get into crypto at this stage? What milestones will crypto need to hit before ETFs get approved?

Greetings fellow hashers,
This week I had the pleasure of attending the Blockchain Visionnaires Summit. It was a beautiful day so I went down by the river during a break and had a chat with Mikko Alasaarela, the CEO and founder of Inbot, a blockchain-based platform that incentivizes business referrals, helping businesses to grow through a trusted network.
We sat by the river and discussed the project, as well as the future of business and work, and the role AI will play. It was a nice light topic for a summer day, so come pull up a chair, get some iced tea, and come listen in.

Happy Monday felow hashers!
Summer is the season of events, and in Berlin there are multiple events every day. On Friday I had 3 separate blockchain events to attend: One for the opening of the Full Node coworking space, a followup afterparty for DAppCon, and the Waves Platform Road Show. While I was event-hopping I was able to snag Sasha Ivanov, the CEO of the Waves platform for an on-the-spot interview to talk about their new smart contracts, his take on the future of base protocols, and the role of regulators. Thank you Sasha for coming on the show!
You may remember that Waves is a proof-of-stake system that allows people to easily create their own crypto tokens. We created the Analysis in Chains Nutshells using the waves platform, and if you would like some, you can sign up to our slack group and we'll send you some to your Waves wallet! http://www.analysisinchainspodcast.com/p/sign-up-for-slack/

Happy Anniversary! For the past year Nathan and Neal have brought you thoughts on crypto nearly twice a week, sometimes more, and today we take a breather in a Montreal park to reflect on how far we've come as a show and as an industry.
Thank you to everyone who has supported us on our journey so far, all of our listeners, those who supported us with your time, your donations, your retweets, your presence at our live events, and your guest appearances. We've had a great time so far and look forward to another great year of crypto, and hope you all stay with us on the journey.

Neal and Nathan met up in Montreal and recorded an episode in the local park, where they discussed the changing nature of crypto exchanges. They now want high net worth individuals to invest rather than everyday Joe - who is finding it harder to buy crypto. Is cryto going off course? Or is it necessary for the sustainabilty of the industry?

Over the years computer gaming has become an increasingly online activity funded by loot boxes, and in game cosmetic and functional items that can be purchased via microtransaction. Blockchain has offered an exciting way of guaranteeing rarity of in-game items and providing secondary markets for your loot. But with every innovation comes challenges including developers losing dictatorial authority over their in game economies and external requlatory issues surrounding lootboxes being classified as gambling. How will blockchain pave the way forward for the hats your elves wear? Join Nathan and Neal as they explore the topic!

It's been nearly a year since Analysis in Chains began, and as we approach our 100th episode Neal and Nathan stop to take a look at the current state of ICOs and how things have changed since last year. Is doing a utility token sale still viable? Will the best projects be core protocols or higher level projects? Tune in as we hash it out!
Also happy Canada Day!
