Why SEC v. LBRY Could Decide The Future of Crypto in the United States
Alex discusses the SEC's complaint against LBRY with LBRY CEO Jeremy Kauffman. The two break down why this case could have huge implications on the future of crypto and blockchain in America and point out the double standard the SEC is perpetrating by filing this complaint against LBRY, a blockchain company who has been very conservative in the space. They also touch on the difficulties this ongoing case has created for fundraising and the catch 22 situations the SEC is presenting the company with.

Tesla Platform:
Alex discusses possible platform opportunities for Elon Musk's American electric vehicle and clean energy company, Tesla. While Musk's car company is a leader in the tech world, they don't currently operate any ventures that would be classified as platforms (if you want more information on how the platform business model works, see our explainer video here: https://youtu.be/tJfptNJy6Yw). Alex describes some of the ways Tesla could spin out a platform business from their current offerings and explains what he sees as the biggest platform opportunity in automotive, a dominant cross-manufacturer development platform.

I take a look at the EU's new Digital Markets Act, which is new major regulation in the EU that aims to limit the power of gatekeeper platforms. Similar to GDPR, the overall concept here has the right spirit but the execution looks to be lacking. I go over some of the large rules these new regulations would force tech companies (and others) to follow:
Making messaging apps interoperable.
Letting users choose a default search engine.
Ensuring fair access conditions for app stores.
Gaining explicit consent to combine personal data to target ads.
Banning the companies from ranking their own products higher than others.
Many of these rules have good intention but I think the big problem here is EU regulators lazy definition of a gatekeeper. As writen, I think this law will provide nothing but headaches for companies that should've never been subject to tech regulation in the first place.
