In my channel I cover the decentralization movement, from technology to management to society. I want to help you better understand the world, so you'll find a wide variety of topics here. Most of them relate to blockchain and cryptocurrencies, but others are about investing, entrepreneurship, innovation, management, culture, and more.

In this one-hour presentation, I will give a nontechnical overview of the Libra proposal by Facebook, followed by Q&A.

Understanding the Libra Ecosystem

David Siegel will present a special 90-minute course on macro economics, the theory of money, monetary policy, and how we can build a new money regime based on the best principles of today's fiat currencies and tomorrow's cryptocurrencies. 

This is a very informative presentation on how money works and how monetary policy can be made better. It's good for anyone curious about macro, money, recessions, central banks, stable coins, and cryptocurrencies. 

The presentation will last 90 minutes, after which he will take questions for up to 30 minutes more. This is a highly anticipated event - be sure to book your place now!

The Future of Money

In this session, David Siegel, author of The Token Handbook, will break down the three main types of stable coins and how he sees these critical parts of the decentralized world playing out. He'll explain fully collateralized, partially collateralized, and uncollateralized coins, and then he'll go through the benefits and risks. Finally, he'll present what he thinks are the viable models and which to stay away from.

All About Stable Coins

This webinar will cover the history, current, and future of digital scarcity. How can we make digital things scarce and how does that create the Internet of Value?

In this webinar, David will explain how blockchains work and how new "token games" are enabling us to create digital economies that will change everything from news to medical research to banking and much more. 

You'll learn about cryptocurrencies, resource tokenization, token curated registries, curved bonding, and more hot topics from the front lines of blockchain research. 

David will also include information and take questions about the upcoming Pillar Project conference in Vilnius, Lithuania, where he will be teaching about tokens and digital scarcity.

It will then transform into a combination of eBay and your personal digital assistant. The nonprofit foundation is committed to continuous delivery of wallets and features. This is our chance to show our community how it's going by giving our first real demo of a working wallet.

The new business reality of GDPR and how you use customer data is inexorably approaching, if you work in or are doing business with anyone in the EU you must deal with this regulation. 

With data protection, there are really only two options: protection of data through ever-more data centralization and security or turning the customer data paradigm on its head and decentralize the data. 

We have a new model: give your customers full control over their data, gain their trust, and lower your costs with the open-source Pillar Business Wallet. Join our conversation Thursday, 30th of November.

Introduction to Blockchain: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ledgers, and more

On August 1, news of a bitcoin "hard fork" broke the cryptocurrency world. Traders were flung into uncertainty and many started wondering about the new Bitcoin Cash and what it means for the market.

Join this session where an expert panel of bitcoin investors, engineers and entrepreneurs will discuss what you need to know about the bitcoin fork, the current situation of the market, the impacts of the hard fork, and their predictions for the future. 

They will also take audience questions live so make sure to tune in and have your questions ready.

The Bitcoin Fork: What you need to know (Live Q&A)

A smart portfolio can mean the difference between a comfortable life and a constant struggle. Most people make poor, emotionally based investment decisions with many biases. Even investing professionals who studied Modern Portfolio Theory did not help their clients in the Global Financial Crisis. 

In fact, when I ask professional investment advisors if they would hire themselves if they had $100 million in the bank, they all say of course not. Most pundits, from celebrity investment gurus to leading academics, have simply been wrong about markets and their predictability. 

We are entering a new era of machine trading, where the average person has no chance to systematically outperform the markets. Learn about post-modern portfolio theory with David Siegel and start building a smart portfolio today.
