Crypto 101 | VIDEO: Andreas Antonopoulous: Ethereum Q&A: ICOs and financial regulation (6 mins) - Super practical resource here today!! (Other videos inside post also)
Andreas M. Antonopoulos is an early pioneer, adopter & educator in the Bitcoin/Crypto space if you have not heard of him.
He routinely puts out some of the best information going. He speaks plainly and simply with some humour!
-- Andreas' Logo he uses for his branding, he is fun. That is the top of his head, looking down.
LOL.
He travels the world preaching the Bitcoin, Liberty, Crypto and Blockchain gospel and is one of the most well respected lecturers and teachers in the crypto world!
I always include a library of AA's videos in these posts, just like he does in every one of his YT channel videos. These are things for you to use, save, watch, share, and learn from if you have time now or come back to later if you wish. It's here to help you, with extra resources.

Are ICOs disruptive, democratic venture capital? Or bubbles fueling greed? Obviously, both.
We're re-defining entrepreneurial capitalism, corporations, securities, fundraising, stock markets - everything financial and the regulatory system around it. There is a certain contingent that is looking at ICOs and revealing their very statist, traditional ideas.
The SEC, securities law, and restrictions on initial public offerings came out of an initial environment that was a crazy bubble, but that kind of regulation is the old way of dealing with things. This ICO bubble will have negative consequences and people will malinvest. It's still created an opportunity to do something never done before: bridge the big gap between early-stage organic financing and stock market public offerings, for companies to fundraise from a completely globalised audience.
What can we do with programmable money that's decentralised, re-imagines funding and escrow structures, with protections driven by crowdsourcing? If the crowd is funding, the crowd should be vetting. Banking is not the primary incumbent being disrupted, it is regulators and the institutional, centralised regulatory environment as well.
In the meantime, I will not be investing in 99.999% of these ICOs because I don't invest in minimally viable whitepapers.
This is part of a talk which took place on June 6th 2017 at a joint meet-up with Blockchain Professionals, BitcoinSYD and SydEthereum in Sydney, Australia: https://antonopoulos.com/event/blockc...
Andreas with a great quote here!

good post
AA is my favorite guy to watch explaining bitcoin. I have showed some of his videos to family and friends. There is one is particular where he is talking about the future of money, and the implications of bitcoin. Great stuff and he puts it in a way that makes sense to people who might not have any experience in crypto.
He is very good.
Glad to hear you are outreaching using his stuff, he would be happy, too, I am sure man!
Nice and short what I love. Was thinking oh great another thing to add to my todo list but 6 minutes I can play that in the background!
FCC not big fans always killing all my fun. Sadly they will get their finger in the pie to take their cut. The issue with his no regulations because it’s the old way is forgetting the golden rule. If a gambler is not winning the game once in a while then people will not roll the dice. If far too many people take advantage of the situation then less money will flow into things. Right now a lot of people are running high on all this risk vs reward. They got their massive risk from bitcoins and they see this huge upside. If that reward falls thought the floor then people can’t stomach the risk anymore and hence regulations step in to encourage people to take risks. It’s really not just to protect “old ladies.”
I think his biggest issue is over regulations. Which yes kills off innovation and their little reward in heavy over regulation markets that also take big cut out of the pie to pay for it

Ahh love this! I remember the first time I watched one of his videos, it changed my life...I was somewhat familiar with bitcoin and had started doing some research on this fascinating #NerdMoney lol.... But it wasn't until I heard Andreas Antonopolous talk about it that it finally clicked for me. Bitcoin is so much more than a digital currency - thanks for sharing Barry! :)
I am heading out in a few mins.... I have been thinking of you.
I saw some of your comments on Omar's video in the stream with Miss Elle the other nite about some stuff and you being paranoid already and then it said FML and I was dying laughing in my living room
True story.
You are always making people laugh, I love it.
Lol :) :) :)
I keep thinking of you but not wanting to bother you
