Muneeb Ali Explains Blockstack’s Big Bet on Bitcoin

Last week, Blockstack announced a new proposal through which node operators would be rewarded in bitcoin.

In this interview with @nlw, Blockstack CEO Muneeb Ali explains how, by tying the security of Blockstack’s Stacks blockchain to bitcoin, and allowing miners to be rewarded with BTC, Blockstack might be setting a new precedent for how the crypto ecosystem looks to bitcoin as a base layer.
