TODAY'S 🎙SHOW: Douglas Tuman interviews Ben Biedermann, a Digital ID expert.

The two discuss the concept building of a decentralized digital ID system on top of Monero outside of the traditional State ID system that preserves privacy & why it’s important for the private market to build its own digital IDs that can compete with the government ones,

They also discuss XMR Bazaar, the Monero marketplace that Douglas is building, would implementing Digital IDs into the marketplace be beneficial and what would the technological implementation be? Why Monero is a better suited platform for building a digital identity system on top of other chains, and finally, is the Monero ethos compatible with decentralized digital IDs .

What it means for Bitcoin if we know Adam Back is Satoshi w/Nima Bagheri- A MONERO TALK EPI #283

TODAY’S 🎙SHOW: Douglas Tuman interviews Nima Bagheri, a cybersecurity expert who has investigated on who Satoshi Nakamoto is and claims , with nearly 100% certainty, that it is Adam Back.

The two discuss how Nima came to this conclusion and why he thinks it matters that the Satoshi Nakamoto mystery is solved. Nima also talks about how no cryptocurrency currently on the market is totally untraceable and that with his skills he could create one but why he doesn’t want to.

They then talk about the current capabilities of Chainalysis to track Monero and if it’s possible that the government is hiding their capabilities to track people for the time being, the current state of America and much more!
