We are joined by Kirian Van Hest, who goes by Deso online, regarding his new article on his concerns over the Bitcoin model for currencies. Deso sees immense value in digital ledgers and trustless transactions, but thinks the current Bitcoin model has several weaknesses.
Some of these weaknesses in the Bitcoin model are being exploited by Tether, a stablecoin whose system he describes as a Ponzi scheme. We go through in detail, in Part 1, the issues with the current cryptocurrency model.
