Today Alec, Keto, and Matt are joined by guest Yves Bennaïm to discuss all things Bitcoin. After pioneering the Internet for over 30 years, Yves Bennaïm has focused since 2011 on the societal and political implications of Bitcoin and its Blockchain technology. In 2017, he founded 2B4CH, a not-for-profit think tank dedicated to helping industries and governments comprehend the social and financial impacts of Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies, and cryptoassets. He currently serves as the chair of this organization.
Since 2017, Yves has been a regular contributor to the Swiss business magazine Bilan with his column "Bitcoin and its Blockchain." Additionally, he writes the "Swindles in the World of Cryptoassets" column for the Swiss daily newspaper Le Temps. He is a leading expert in the field of Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLT), holding the position of chair in CEN and ISO technical committees, representing Switzerland.
With a passion for spreading impactful ideas, he launched and curated TEDxGeneva in 2009 and 2010. His expertise and contributions to the field have been recognized in various media, including an interview-focused portrait by Le Temps newspaper.
