During the Consensus 2022 conference, I had the pleasure to interview one of the most significant figures in crypto: The one and only David Chaum.  David Chaum is an American computer scientist, developer, cryptographer, and inventor. Ahead of his time, when the internet was first introduced, David Chaum foresaw several privacy issues that would arise from it. And since then, He dedicated a lifetime to creating solutions to combat the surveillance state and protect digital privacy. One solution that inspired the birth of Bitcoin and blockchain technology was the invention of E-cash, also known as Digicash. Other solutions that he developed are vault systems, blind signatures, and mix networks. A full suite of solutions that enables him to take his work even further. Currently, as noted on his site: "David is currently leading  xx network , a completely private, quantum-secure decentralized messaging and payment platform".

In this article I will describe my experience, the reason why my first series of NFTs was created, and most importantly the advantages and disadvantages of creating an nft (Non-fungible Token) or an nft

What a fabulous week for crypto! Bitcoin went up from 16K to 21 K, and several alt-coins either started the race or followed suit. While this increase is an indication that the market is not dead. It is too soon to confirm that the bull market has returned. However, a clear indication that the market has consolidated, and volume is bound to come back.  As of now, it is pivotal to stay connected with the news and understand what type of headlines can affect the market. Bankrupting exchanges, large hacks, and hikes in US Federal Reserve interest rates are among some factors that have a direct effect on how the markets behave. The shake of 2022 was real. It crashed several institutional players and with it emptying the hands of millions of retail investors. The investors that do come back will eventually "come back" more educated about self-custody and decentralized finance.  Trust is built, but a greedy market comes in waves and they do not always coincide. When the market drai
