The more subscribers, the more we can help Monero grow! 🚀 TODAY'S 🎙SHOW: We asked Riccardo Spagni, aka @fluffypony, aka the CEO (Chief Entertainment Officer) of Monero some big questions ! Is Monero the truest crypto currency of them all? Is Monero humanities greatest hope against the rise of surveillance capitalism? What motivates you to work in Monero? Are you a crypto anarchist or cypherpunk trying to build tech that will give humans more liberty ? Is Monero more aligned with cypherpunk/cryptoanarchist ideals than bitcoin? Why aren’t the idealist Bitcoiners like Andreas Antonopolous more serious about Monero ? Is bitcoin is dangerous because it fools very smart people into opting into a future where all our transactions on our transparent ledger? Do we even have want to be added to Coinbase now? Not being added seems to be the best indicator that we are doing something right. Coinbase can’t handle true digital cash. What are reproducible builds? Will they help make Monero more decentralized in terms of development? Is bitcoin digital gold? Isn’t Monero be better digital gold since it’s fungible at the protocol level? Do you think it will be one coin to rule them all? How do you feel about the state of Monero today? Are we currently digital cash? Have we achieved it ? Is Monero’s mining more decentralized than Bitcoin’s? What strategy will Monero be taking to thwart ASICs? When will ASICs become commoditized and when we will we welcome them on the Monero network? What can be done to prevent an undetectable inflation bug in Monero ? Is it possible to be perfectly binding and blinding? What do you think about Monero’s tail emission v Bitcoin’s fixed supply ? Is Monero effectively more secure because of it? Is it possible that one day Bitcoin’s max cap will have to be raised? Isn’t gold disinflationary like Monero? What do people mean when they say Monero can’t scale? We have dynamic blocksizes? Is it that transactions and the blockchain are too large and you can’t run full nodes? Won’t moore's law save us? Will Monero have Lightning Network? Will it have a Mimblwimble sidechain? Why isn’t an ICO use case for Tari ever discussed? What do you think of the new SEC guidance? Is it another reason why we should move away from pow tweaks?

The more subscribers, the more we can help Monero grow! 🚀 TODAY'S 🎙SHOW: @hyc_symas -- the creator of RandomJS (the genesis of RandomX) Tevador -- the lead developer of RandomX Needmoney90 -- Monero Reddit moderator and all things Monero expert. We discuss what transpired during the recent IRC developers meeting on a Proof of Work plan of action for Monero. Particularly, we discuss the communities goal of implementing RandomX in October (if an audit is successfully completed by then) and what the following steps will be if RandomX does not successfully thwart Asics -- switching to SHA-3 or another egalitarian proof of work. All-in-all it is exciting times as we watch the developers reach consensus on a plan of action to uphold one of Monero's tenants -- maintaining a decentralized mining network. I also gave Howard, NeedMoney90, and Tevador an opportunity to respond to the Kristy Leigh Minehan interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZZF4BqIDrk Video Transcription: https://pastebin.com/raw/LSPxEnr8 Listen & Reach out to us: 🎧PODCAST: ITUNES: https://apple.co/34W7FVp SPOTIFY: https://spoti.fi/2t1y9b4 GOOGLE PLAY: https://bit.ly/363JYMo STITCHER: https://bit.ly/2tUcIck WEBSITE: https://www.monerotalk.live 📧CONTACT: monerotalklive@gmail.com Get 🤓😎Social with us: TWITTER: https://twitter.com/monerotalk FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/MoneroTalk/ HOST: https://twitter.com/douglastuman
