Princeton University’s Blockchain Center, One Year On

Listen to Bloomberg Crypto on the iHeartRadio App, Apple Podcasts or Spotify.

Last year, just before the crypto winter had hit in earnest, Princeton University opened up “The Center for the Decentralization of Power Through Blockchain Technology”.

The Center was funded in part by a $20 million gift from prominent Princeton alumni including Mike Novogratz, CEO of Galaxy Investment Partners, and Joe Lubin, co-founder of the Ethereum crypto platform.

The university says the Center focuses on the software engineering that makes blockchain technology work, finds innovative uses for decentralized systems and considers how it might affect our collective future.

One year on, as the crypto winter persists, what’s the Center up to these days?

Bloomberg reporter Francesca Maglione joins this episode to discuss the role universities are playing in studying blockchain.
