We had the absolute pleasure of sitting down for a conversation with the man himself behind this wonderful site, Ryan Charles. Our conversation touched on how he got into Bitcoin, what he's learned about Bitcoin since creating Yours, and we talked about all the exciting features that will be powering the Money Button to achieve global adoption. We learned some new things about Yours' history, and we discussed why Ryan is pessimistic about solving the routing problem on the Lightning Network.

We discuss the news-filled week in Bitcoin (BCH) and break down the upcoming November hard fork. We review the new Satoshi's Vision client released by nChain, the ABC 0.18 client, and all the drama in between. We discuss whether there is merit to the idea that BCH will happen upon a chain split come November.

Like Bitcoin (BCH), we are professionalizing. We have an all new audio setup and we use the time to talk about the BCH scaling war coming in November, and do a deep dive into the Wormhole protocol. Are two of the largest Bitcoin miners trying to change the BCH protocol to implement their own tokenization and smart contract solution?

We examine Clemens Ley's upcoming The Bitcoin Token, Cryptonize.it's Colored Coins tokenization solution, and the SImple Ledger Protocol implemented on top of Electron Cash.
