There's literally so much more that Rob is into and working on and, if you think about it, as the CEO of a large company he can only talk about so much due to business obligations.Copy/Paste from Rob's Wikipedia:He is the founder and CEO of LivePerson, which offers brand-consumer messaging for web, social, and mobile. He is a founding member of the NYC Entrepreneurs Council of the Partnership for New York City and a mentor of the NYC Venture Fellows, a joint initiative formed by the 92Y and the NYCEDC which is designed to help the next generation of global entrepreneurs succeed in New York City.

Yo, can I just copy/paste Sidney's bio from Cardanofoundation.org ?After hundreds of pitches, thousands of decks and many commercials, brand activations, social campaigns and yes, even tear-jerkingly funny content calendars, he’s now making sure Cardano is not just adopted but loved.  As head of Brand & communications, Sidney stewards the brand of Cardano and, with the team, aligns activities across the various communication channels.\\Graduated with an MA degree in Media Studies and Philosophy (Utrecht University), Sidney has been a filmmaker for five, and an advertising creative for another twelve years. He published three books and used the first lockdown to familiarize himself with Capital Asset Management.That's Sidney! We talk about advertising, branding, the challenges of the Cardano Foundation as the Ambassadors of Cardano. I've seen complaints that there isn't much engagement from the Cardano Foundation with the community, but it turns out all you have to do is ask!SIDNEY LINKS!!!Cardano Foundation Contact@SidneyVollmerThe Cardano Foundation Strategy 2021 (Frederik Gregaard Video) CARDANO CITIZEN LINKS!!!@CardanoCitizen TwitterYouTubeBeat Provided By https://freebeats.ioProduced By White HotDisclaimer: Nothing in this show can be constituted as financial advice and none of the participants have any ability to financially advise others in any capacity.

Cardano ADA Stake Pools. All about staking your ADA and what the future of ADA could be.Alex from [NASEC] is quickly becoming one of my favorite people in the Cardano community. He recently had some heat around his name as he decided to do a deep-dive on MELD to determine if it was a SCAM or not. This episode was recorded way before all that tasty drama, but after it came out I was not at all surprised to find that it was Alex taking MELD to task.Again, no MELD talk here but what we do talk about is the real truth about the Stake Pool community, the reality of the small pools, a little about network security and vulnerabilities, and what makes for a good pool and a good pool operator - helping you to make an informed decision where the Daedalus rankings fail.Alex's antenna are always tuned to scam and greed detection and this is just one of my types of dudes.Honestly I'm probably gonna switch pools to NASEC when I'm not being lazy someday - and there is no paid endorsement here from Alex at all, and he is in no way aware that I would like to do so.🔥🔥Alex LINKS!!!🔥🔥YouTubeTwitterWebsite🔥🔥CARDANO CITIZEN LINKS!!!🔥🔥@CardanoCitizen TwitterYouTubeBeat Provided By https://freebeats.ioProduced By White HotDisclaimer: Nothing in this show can be constituted as financial advice and none of the participants have any ability to financially advise others in any capacity.

I don't see why not.  Hundreds of years ago the foundations of our own banking system (prior to being co-opted) was partially founded by the financial instruments of Mutual Companies. These centuries old strategies of working together and working with your neighbor are now almost an unknown secret amongst the rich families that still do things the old way and for their advantage. Why not give ourselves an unfair advantage too? All the while this type of genesis instrument could be one of the foundational keystone financial instruments to truly move banking and investing into the digital and cryptographic space.
