Epicenter: Looking Back on 10 Years of Crypto. AI Doom & Gloom? SPECIAL

As Epicenter hits the 500 episode milestone, we look back on almost 10 years of crypto developments, analysing the good, the bad and the ugly. What projects & narratives have surprised us? Has Bitcoin failed in becoming a reliable store of value? Will ZK proofs provide the much needed solution to AI’s alignment problem? Last but not least, are we still early? Get ready for a fascinating discussion, albeit gloomy for this special occasion.
