Blockchain bridges: the beauty and the beast in the room | Giuseppe Stuto | TEDxBostonStudio

Blockchain bridges are an essential building block to establishing a crypto enabled global economy. Although there are many useful, forward looking use cases that will arise from having effective cross-chain bridges, there are many drawbacks the industry faces today that must be considered. The opportunity for building necessary cross-chain infrastructure is immense.

How Graphene Could Solve Our Concrete Problem

Graphene is considered one of the most important breakthroughs in material science since its discovery. This “wonder material” was widely overhyped, and still hasn’t lived up to its potential. But since my previous video on the truth about graphene, we can now see more concrete and realistic applications hitting the market — not those out of this world promises like the space elevator. What if we could cut down carbon (CO2) emissions from cement production by 20% and make cheaper and more powerful EV batteries using graphene battery technology? Is graphene finally starting to deliver on the promise? Let’s see if we can come to a decision on this.

Whatever Happened To NFTs?

Not too long ago, we were seeing headlines about hype NFTs like bored apes and crypto punks selling for over half a million dollars. But, ever since the crypto market started to crash, so has the NFT market. Ironically, the floor price of many of these NFTs hasn’t changed all that much due to low volume. However, given that the underlying crypto which is usually Ethereum has crashed by 80%, the overall price of most NFTs has also crashed by 80%. While this may be rather painful for many speculators, this is likely a good thing for the NFT market as a whole. You see, the primary purpose of NFTs is not to buy overpriced jpegs and flex on social media. Rather, NFTs have a slew of legitimate use cases such as proof of ownership, monitoring the supply chain, and keeping track of records and credentials. These were the reasons that NFTs were originally created, but over time, the more speculative side is what they’ve become known for. This video explains the true purpose and potential of NFTs and why the recent market crash is just what the NFT market needed to reset and move forward.
