Silvio Micali on Lex Fridman
 

I was excited about this. But, it was a little boring. I was hoping for some real world uses of blockchain. I do agree bitcoin probably isn't going to be used as a currency as much as a store of wealth.

Lex did ask about Zero-Proof knowledge, and was trying to get some clear explanations. But I still did not get it. Maybe one of those concepts that is just over my head.

Silvio a smart businessman, but he downplays the importance of cryptocurrency decentralization (with Bitcoin). He mentions how he funded Algorand, that is a centralized attack vector, Bitcoin had no funding.
