Consensus Rewind: Saving Humanity, One Crypto City at a Time
A crypto city is a city that uses cryptographic techniques of some sort with varied objectives.
ABOUT
Austin Hill, a principal at angel investor firm Intentional Ventures, and Salim Ismail, chairman and co-founder of OpenExO, a management consulting ecosystem and marketplace developer, sit down with Liv Boeree, a poker champion, effective altruist and filmmaker to discuss crypto cities.
They discuss how these cities are benefiting people everywhere and why they believe we can no longer live in a centralized economy.
The panel occurred on Friday, June 10, 2022, the second day of CoinDesk’s Consensus 2022 festival in Austin, Texas.
The executive producer for CoinDesk Reports is Jared Schwartz and Nia Freeman edited this episode.
