#487: Jeff Garzik, CEO of Bloq and Hemi Network, on The Convergence of Bitcoin and Ethereum, Bitcoin DeFi, Multi-chain Liquidity

Jeff Garzik, CEO of Bloq and Hemi Network, is one of the earliest contributors and most respected developers in the Bitcoin industry, as a Bitcoin core developer. He has worked for various companies,  and played critical roles in open-source projects for some of the most well-known platforms in the cryptocurrency ecosystem such as BitPay, mining tech firm Bitfury, and the Linux Foundation.

Jeff Garzik worked alongside Satoshi Nakamoto, for years through private emails and online forums until the Bitcoin creator went dark in 2011. Garzik has famously stated that he believed he was dealing with Dave Kleiman.

Recently, Jeff started his own blockchain-as-a-service firm, Bloq, which will serve enterprise clients who wish to develop stems on a private, public or confederated blockchain.

In this conversation, we discuss:
