On this episode of "Speaking of Bitcoin", join hosts Adam B. Levine, Andreas M. Antonopoulos, Stephanie Murphy and Jonathan Mohan for a discussion about loans in the world of crypto.
HODL. It's crypto-land philosophy for not selling your preferred token even when things look their most bleak. But where philosophy intersects with real-world concerns like shelter, food and the niceties of life, tactics have emerged offering both opportunities and risks. From smart contracts to bitcoin collateralized mortgages, the hosts discuss their experiences with loans in the world of crypto.

SOB #496 The Ups and Downs of Crypto Loans

<a href="https://www.economist.com/finance-and-economics/2022/05/12/the-crypto-infrastructure-cracks" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Stablecoins</a> are essential to the financial plumbing of the cryptocurrency world. They’re pegged to a real-world asset, usually the dollar. But when that peg breaks, things can turn ugly in a hurry.

Luna landing: Crypto chaos

Cette semaine, Livo pensait fuir l'actualité électorale en allant flâner à Marseille, et le voilà pris dans un débat local sur l'usage de la plage des Catalans. Pire, il se sent poursuivi par Macron qui vient vanter son école du futur dans la ville de Jul. De leur côté, Virginie, instite syndiquée, et Zoubir, riverain de l'école en question, n'ont pas pu échanger avec le Président. Dommage, ils avaient des choses à dire...

Il Folle volo

In 1977, a mild-mannered aeronautical engineer sideswiped a parked car in Compton, CA. He stopped his car to see the damage, and all of a sudden a man opened his car door, and jumped in the car. He said, "I'm about to save your life." What happened next would torture him for the rest of his life.

Daredevil Season 2 is almost upon us and that means a new iteration of The Punisher, one of the most mangled and misrepresented characters in Marvel cinematic history! To help us wade through Frank Castle's movie graveyard, Lon Strickland comes on the show to argue that Dolph Lundgren's 1989 version is the best so far! Beyond that, we talk about Spider-Man dropping in on the 'Captain America: Civil War' trailer, the state of animation in the USA and what it was like for Lon to work at Machinima during their heyday!

Jon Bruner, Mike Loukides and Jim Stogdill from O'Reilly Radar muse on the return of software to the physical world.

Software and the physical world

O'Reilly Media spreads the knowledge of innovators. At O’Reilly, a big part of our business is paying attention to what’s new and interesting in the world of technology. We have a pretty good record at having anticipated some of the big technology developments in recent history. For instance, we launched the first commercial Web site, GNN, in 1993; we organized the meeting at which the term “open source” was first adopted; we were early investors in Blogger, which helped launch the blogging revolution; and more recently, our Web 2.0 conference launched a world-wide meme. We call this predictive sense the “O’Reilly Radar.” And while we’re certainly not always right, we are, at least, good at making interesting guesses.

Our methodology is simple: we draw from the wisdom of the alpha geeks in our midst, paying attention to what’s interesting to them, amplifying these weak signals, and seeing where they fit into the innovation ecology. Add to that the original research conducted by our Research team, and you start to get a good picture of what the technology world is thinking about.
