About this episodeIn this episode, Colin riffs on banking, defi and how crypto wasn't really interesting until interest rates came along. Colin popped up in Sam's fees when he wrote a great article about the inherent risks from Libra.

Colin has worked in distributed ledger technology and cryptocurrencies since 2013, launching efforts at BNP Paribas Global Markets, where he sat on DLT focused industry steering committees, including R3, the Post-Trade Distributed Ledger working group (PTDL), and FIX cryptocurrency working group. He became a technology entrepreneur in early 2016, initially working with digital asset derivatives. He has been the co-host of the Blockchain Insider podcast since 2017 (1.2m+ downloads).
