bitcoin-q-a-the-end-of-mining
In this Q&A segment, Andreas talks about the progression of mining performance from CPU to ASIC and how that created strong centralization. But now that we have arrived at the highest silicon fabrication density (at or below 16nm), the entire industry is bound by a much slower process, with 2x increase every 18 months at best. This new dynamic removes many of the incentives to centralization of mining.

bitcoin-q-a-irreversibility-and-consumer
Irreversible transactions and consumer protection. Why would people want irreversible transactions? Will that slow down adoption? The difference between a system of hard promises which can be softened and a system of soft promises which can't be hardened. We're used to operating in a system of soft promises, where your bank can reverse your transactions whether you ask it to or not. These blockchain system involve hard promises, but Bitcoin and Ethereum do not guarantee that a payment will happen irreversibly -- it guarantees that the contract within the transaction will be executed irreversibly. If that contract says "Without second thought, send this money to here and never look back," that is the contract which is going to be executed irreversibly. But that's not the only contract you can put in there. Options: 30-day refund payments, third-party escrows, reintroducing counter-party risk. The difference is that the owner of the money is the only one who can reintroduce those constraints. It is an irreversible guarantee that the wishes you expressed as a consumer within your transaction script will get executed, simulating all of the softness that you want. Right now it's too difficult to do those scripts, but that's an engineering problem just a few rounds of incremental innovation away. We can offer more robust, more predictable guarantees for consumer protection than any system of soft promises. There will be bugs, but you iterate through the bugs.
This is part of a talk which took place on September 18th 2016 at the Silicon Valley Ethereum meetup in Mountain View, California: https://www.meetup.com/EthereumSiliconValley/events/233988744/

3:02 What are the crisis relief options in a hard money economy?
What would happen if a crisis hit a hard money economy where printing money for financial stimulus was not possible?
Many in the crypto community appreciate Bitcoin because it can not be inflated. However, in tough times governments use money as a tool to stimulate recovery. How would economic stimulus work in a hard money economy? How well does financial stimulus work now and what would be the crisis relief options in a hard money economy?

bitcoin-q-a-how-to-avoid-re-creating
What are the implications of blockchain projects that re-create the same financial systems of control that we currently have? Should we use banks for custodial cryptocurrency services? Are there benefits to permissioned, centralised blockchains for supply chain management, digital rights management (DRM), healthcare data, or tokens for senior citizens’ credit? Why is decentralisation of control and minimising trusted third parties in finance is more important? What should we learn from the demonetisation & Gresham's Law in India? Can we achieve our dreams without capitulating on principles?
These questions are from the MOOC 9.6 session, the June monthly Patreon session, and part of the Denver talk, which took place on March 23rd, June 24th, and August 6th 2018 respectively. Andreas is a teaching fellow with the University of Nicosia. The first course in their Master of Science in Digital Currency degree, DFIN-511: Introduction to Digital Currencies, is offered for free as an open enrollment MOOC course to anyone interested in learning about the fundamental principles.
