Muneeb Ali (@muneeb), co-founder of Stacks, joins Erik on this episode. Takeaways:- Muneeb says that Bitcoin is winning as money, and that he wants to make that capital productive. He’s "bringing smart contracts to where the money is."- Bitcoin’s architecture implies that there shouldn’t be much flexibility and programmability on the base layer blockchain.- A criticism of Ethereum is that it is trying to be too many things to too many people.- There is a basket of Layer-1s that are gaining market share against Ethereum.- One criticism of Bitcoin is that there are only two things you can do with a wallet — sit on your BTC or send it to someone else.- Bitcoin has the most mainstream adoption and has “crossed the chasm” more than any other cryptocurrency.- All of the forks of Bitcoin are worth less than 1% of the current market cap of Bitcoin.- Bitcoin is very durable and resilient. Software created years ago for Bitcoin still works today, something that can’t be said about other chains.Thanks for listening — if you like what you hear, please review us on your favorite podcast platform.Check us out on the web at www.villageglobal.vc or get in touch with us on Twitter @villageglobal.Want to get updates from us?
