This episode features LBRY‘s founder and CEO, Jeremy Kauffman. Jeremy introduces us to the soon-to-be-launched, blockchain-based, P2P content platform LBRY, and discusses the excitements, challenges and potential threats to liberty of running a completely decentralized, out-of-control platform.
We take on a variety of topics: upstart ‘shitcoins’ and their similarities to currencies in the US before the Federal Reserve; whether the era of “too much information” is causing social instability – and if we need to rethink starting projects like LBRY as a consequence; the libertarian idea of ‘free anarchy zones’ and Jamie’s idea for a Robot Slave Party; and whether Julian Assange’s problems are mostly a result of Wikileaks’ centralized information infrastructure.
