  • Welcome to Bankless, where we explore the frontier of internet money and internet finance. In this 8-episode series, we are exploring some new frontiers. New frontiers in new technologies, all of which are poised to completely revolutionize the world and change everything about the operating system that society is currently running.
    In this first episode with Vitalik, we kick off by discussing the concept of Zuzalu with a birds-eye view. Vitalik helps us unravel the meta-quest of understanding the essence of Zuzalu and its role in curating communities. Discover why Zuzalu was structured in this unique manner, touching upon intriguing elements such as Zupass, zero-knowledge infrastructure, ZuPoll, and Stamps.
    Keep an eye out as we roll out the rest of these boundary-pushing episodes!

    Does it feel like Ethereum is a way bigger part of David's identity and sense of self worth than it is for Vitalik's?
    I feel like Vitalik would be perfectly fine/content if Ethereum went away (okay if something else came along)...while it feels like David might an hero (everything has to be connected back to ethereum in some way).
    *from all the times i have heard them speak both together and separately

      I think Vitalik consciously tries to create that separation to keep in line with the values of crypto. Satoshi went completely anonymous to achieve that separation. Vitalik can't do that... But if he overly asserted himself as the leader of Eth, and made it clear Eth was his and was completely connected to it,. it would detract from the decentralized values in crypto itself. Also it gives off the impression that he's not worried about anything other than building the technology. I also believe he truly is like this, and isn't just trying to create the illusion he is this way. He's pretty easy to read, he can't hide his emotion if he tried haha... I see him as quite humble and selfless, and really makes for a great leader for this industry especially. People talk trash about projects, or people they don't like in this space, but everyone, even ETH opponents, alll seem to have a mutual respect for Vitalik, and I think it's because of everything I just wrote that causes people to like him/be drawn to him. Anyway, not debating anything you're saying, it's just a good point. I think the average ETH investor identifies with ETH more than Vitalik does haha, let alone David.

    THE ONE TRUE RING to bring to be destroyed is the need to earn a living. Jesus Christ, when will people see how obvious it is? As long as we must compete with each other to earn a living or as long as we do not meet people's needs UNCONDITIONALLY, we are doomed to war with each other to avoid being the loser in the game of king of the hill to decide who survives. I'm starting to get tired of how ignorant even smart people like Vitalik are in this sense. It is very very straightforward.
    If we must fight to beat others to meet our needs, we must beat others. If we must beat others, we must beat others even if it requires we throw ethics and the environment under the bus.
    Please, wake up guys. Have me on to discuss this.

      lol you don't understand at all. You think Vitalik cares about getting rich? He has more money than he'll ever need and has made it quite obvious over time how he is not interested in material things. Also, crypto and Ethereum is all about bringing financial equity to the world, not widening the poverty gap. It's literally the opposite of what you narrow mindedly assume.

      @@zerotwo2157 My point exactly (i said it sounds like its for singles). Most people that go for 2 months are probably not husbands or wives with children. children are the backbone of any civilization. Zuzalu has civilizational engineering ambitions but at the same time makes an event that excludes family men and women, the producers of civilization. Zuzalu needs to win the hearts and minds of family oriented people. this won't happen by excluding them through weird 2 month format.
