This subject is arguably one of the hottest subjects in the media right now and for good reason. It promises so much – the least of which is the decentralization of the monetary system and the potential financial inclusion of the poor.The Back StoryThis event is the first live podcast driven media event of its kind and after I released the tickets it sold out the first-time in less than 12 hours. Then after releasing the next batch of tickets it sold in less than 4 hours and when I released the final set of tickets it sold out without me telling anyone – they demand for answers from the south African public was simply insatiable. So, you are about to hear what went down at my first “live” podcast event when I interviewed South Africa’s experts (if there is such a thing) on the current developments within the cryptocurrency and blockchain space. Your "Expert" PanelYour guests are Simon Dingle from Phantom Design, a genius in his own right but also very outspoken and hilariously funny in the process of doing so. Farzam Ehsani, the blockchain lead for Rand Merchant Bank – one of South Africa’s largest banks and who wrote the definitive white paper on the impact of the blockchain and cryptocurrency on the worlds financial system and Lorien Gamaroff, the CEO of Bankymoon – who has been invited around the world to speak on digital currencies and distributed ledgers and their benefits for emerging economies. He has addressed the IMF, World Bank, FBI and Commonwealth Secretariat, the South African Reserve Bank, TEDx and a host of banking professionals and attorney generals throughout the world. On this episode, we exchange such a valuable set of opinions and thoughts and ideas in front of a live audience and we also include a live audience Q&A session.
