The Importance of Parallel Infrastructure in the 21st Century

On this extra special episode, the boys are joined by Logan Allen (~tacryt-socryp), founder of Zorp, to discuss Urbit, zero-knowledge infrastructure, and how his company is using Nock to build a ZK virtual machine. But first, they explore the intersection of philosophy, evolution, and technology, how man is shaped by his tools, and how crypto will lead to the rise of parallel economies and societies. All this plus cryptographic theory, the danger of cyber attacks, and whether or not Urbit is ready for primetime. Don't miss it. Timestamps
