We will keep this light and fun, and easy to listen to. We will dive deep into the technology from time to time, but our goal is to educate and bring all of you on the Web3 journey with us.

We will talk about popular technologies such as Blockchain, Development, NFTs and Crypto, and please be advised whatever is spoken about here is not financial advice.

In this insightful episode we're going to deep dive with Roberto Capodieci, a decentralisation expert and blockchain pioneer, into the world of blockchain technology. From the evolution of blockchain to its real world use cases, the episode touches on it all. We learn about Roberto's involvement in early days of napster and peer to peer networks like Bittorrent.

Key Topics:

Decentralisation and its importance of it and its effects on trust and transparency.

Relevance to modern blockchain applications of Roberto’s blockchain book.

Blockchain future and the role that will play blockchain in each industry.

A discussion of challenges and solutions for adoption of blockchain

Bullet Points:

Discussing blockchain’s real world applications other than cryptocurrency.

Roberto’s movement from peer to peer networks to blockchain development.

What decentralisation does to remove middlemen and make things more transparent.

The value of digital identity and timestamping on the blockchain.

Chapter Breakdown:

00:00 Introduction - Introducing blockchain and its potential.

03:38 Roberto’s Journey - From BitTorrent to blockchain pioneer.

05:52 Consensus Mechanisms Explained - Proof of work vs. proof of stake.

12:10 Beyond Cryptocurrency - Blockchain use cases in finance, healthcare, and more.

21:32 Decentralisation Benefits - Removing middlemen and ensuring transparency.

31:00 Real-world Blockchain Applications - From digital identities to supply chain.

37:45 Roberto’s Blockchain Book - Writing about proof of stake and blockchain evolution.

43:20 Interactive Blockchain Learning - Using QR codes to enhance learning.

48:12 The Future of Blockchain - Predictions and potential growth areas.

52:30 Conclusion - Final thoughts on blockchain’s impact.

Thought-Provoking Questions:

What potential does blockchain have to disrupt industries that have always been bound by centralised control: real estate, healthcare, and so on?

How do we think about the ethical implications of using blockchain to manage personal digital identities and sensitive data?

Considering that transactions are private by nature, and that blockchain is transparent, how can the balance be made regarding privacy when applied to anything such as financial 

transactions or healthcare records?

In this episode, we dive into the potential for blockchain to revolutionise a range of industries, explaining to listeners what’s behind blockchain’s complexity and how versatile it is. Ideal for those 

interested in blockchain and want to learn more about the wider impacts of decentralising the internet.

Blockstars Web3 Weekly Podcast Ep.87 Featuring Roberto Capodieci Blockchain Senior Consultant

David Sønstebø, co-founder of IOTA, discusses this next-generation post-blockchain platform designed to serve as the backbone for the Internet-of-Things (IoT).

IOTA is a groundbreaking new open-source distributed ledger that does not use a blockchain. Its innovative new quantum-proof protocol, known as the Tangle, gives rise to unique new features like zero fees, infinite scalability, fast transactions, secure data transfer and many others.

Because the Tangle uses a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) instead of a blockchain, users automatically act as validators, allowing transaction validation to become an intrinsic property of utilising the network. Each transaction requires the sender to verify two previous transactions, resulting in infinite scalability while avoiding the validation centralization that is common with existing consensus mechanisms.

IOTA is also developing a novel standard for embedding minuscule ASIC chips in all IoT devices. These chips perform nominal proof-of-work hashes in order to prevent spam and Sybil attacks, and because the network is partition-tolerant and only eventually consistent, brute force hashing attacks are prevented.

With a transaction volume limited only by the speed of light, IOTA is a promising new solution to the limitations presented by blockchains.
