Framework for blockchain

I’m really enjoying Kevin Rose’s new podcast Modern Finance. Even if you’re not a fintech fan, who doesn’t love a good outrun cover art?

In episode seven, Kevin hosted Ari Paul, BlockTower Capital Founder and CIO. Ari presented the following framework, which I love:

“Email was Internet native communication.
Bitcoin was Internet native money.
DeFi is Internet native banking or finance.
NFTs are Internet native IP.”

He notes that it has the "sense of inevitability” by bringing things that people value into the modern era.
