Ep 2 - Ryan Selkis - Transparent Data for Decentralization

Hosted by Enigma's Head of Growth Tor Bair, our second episode features Ryan Selkis, CEO and founder of Messari. Ryan talks about how his different experiences - from Digital Currency Group to Coindesk to Messari - have shaped his perspective on the potential of decentralized technologies, why journalism in this space is so challenging (and who is succeeding), and how decentralized tech can be used for good, but also misused. We also discuss what Ryan believes are the largest barriers to building a decentralized future, including a lack of reliable information and transparency. And we'll also talk about how we can build a more collaborative industry - and how that relates to Ryan's prolific Twitter activity, where he's known for speaking his mind. Enigma's new podcast "Decentralize This!" features guests from all over the decentralization space: developers, investors, entrepreneurs, researchers, writers, artists, people in government and enterprise - all individuals who care deeply about building a more decentralized and sustainable world. How can all these people with different perspectives collaborate to create and scale the technologies we need to shape a better future? --- Relevant links: Messari: https://www.messari.io Ryan's Twitter: https://twitter.com/twobitidiot Enigma: https://www.enigma.co Enigma Blog: https://blog.enigma.co Enigma Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/enigmampc
