Blockchain and Crypto: Past, Present, and Future | Douglas Pepe | TEDxRanneySchool
Understanding blockchain and cryptocurrency in a historical context. Douglas J. Pepe is a partner in New York litigation boutique Joseph Hage Aaronson. By day, he represents hedge funds, financial institutions, corporations and large law firms in complex commercial disputes. On nights and weekends, he pursues his newfound passion in blockchain and crypto. He and a friend have been building a growing cryptocurrency mining operation and designing crypto-related algorithmic trading strategies. Doug’s two worlds are beginning to merge, as he has recently begun giving legal advice on cryptocurrency regulatory issues in his day job. He is the father of Ranney students Andrew, Desmond, Kyra and Deegan Pepe. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

When he finished, I was like "I thought you just wanted to start talking to me about Ethereum" I liked it though.. Concise and summing up the most important points
I don't know who needs to hear this, you've got to stop saving money, invest some part of it, if you really want financial freedom
Invest in bitcoin, gold, silver, but stock, forex market, commodities. Just invest and save yourself
Good talk, i tell my friends everyday, it's good to save money but got have that investing spirit if you really want financial freedom
What if you don't know how to trade any of these?
I'm really interested in trading my bitcoin but I don't know how to do that, please any recommendations?
Muna Robert trading is the best platform if you are interested in trading your bitcoins
Bitcoin is exciting because it shows how cheap it can be. Bitcoin is better than currency in that you don’t have to be physically in the same place and, of course, for large transactions, currency can get pretty inconvenient.”
Well, I think it is working. There may be other currencies like it that may be even better. But in the meantime, there’s a big industry around Bitcoin. - People have made fortunes off Bitcoin, some have lost money. It is volatile, but people make money off of volatility too.”
When bitcoin currency is converted from currency into cash, that interface has to remain under some regulatory safeguards. I think the fact that within the bitcoin universe an algorithm replaces the function of the goverment …[that] is actually pretty cool.”
It is not a speculative investment even though it is being used as such by other people. As Bitcoin network grows the value of Bitcoin grows. As people move into Bitcoin for payments and receipts they stop using US Dollars, Euros and Chinese Yuan which in the long-term devalues these currencies.
Bitcoin is the beginning of something great: a currency without a government, something necessary and imperative. But I am not familiar with the specific product to assert whether it is the best potential setup. And we need a long time to establish confidence.
At its core, bitcoin is a smart currency, designed by very forward-thinking engineers. It eliminates the need for banks, gets rid of credit card fees, currency exchange fees, money transfer fees, and reduces the need for lawyers in transitions… all good things.”
Of all the explanation about bitcoin, this one is the most clear to be understood in a very concise manner ... Really good presentation Thanks a bunch 👍
Investing in crypto now is very cool especially with the current rise in the market now
Most especially having an expert trader like Mrs Grace
Most intelligent words I've ever heard Crypto is the gold 🥇
Talking about expert Mrs Grace I think she is the best trader I have ever met
I invested $3000 and she made profit of $28,000 for me just in 15 days, her success story is everywhere
Well, this's not my first time of seeing her name on the social platform
perfectly simplified explanation that i can say i now fully grasp the general idea of blockchain technology and crypto currency
The book "Digital Gold" will blow your mind
thanks Douglas and tedx for making this video free
Needed a longer session. Loved it !
Extremely simple, effective, and to the point! LOVE this presentation!
Clarity, preciseness, eloquent and simple.
Thank you so much for the informative session.
Great stories, future would be really glad to have blockchain in it this,blockchain being transparent creates the problem for security purposes well this problem could be sort out by trias, trias has an amazing technology by combining AI, blockchain and security which prevents attack from inside and outside both and makes it more secure their TRY coin is also a worth investment as their revenue is generated from dapps which makes it different from all
This guy is really happy to be onstage
very very thanks sir for your information.
Very informative video
self explanatory detailed lecture. We can now pass exam
Great intro Intro for non-tech people to understand the importance of a ledger
Successful people don't become that way overnight. What most people see at a glance-wealth, a great career, purpose is the result of hard work and hustle over time. I pray that anyone reading this will be successful in life.
I advice everyone to start investing and never rely on just salary.. No billionaire made it through salary.
If you want to be successful have the mindset of the rich, spend less and invest more. Don't give up your dreams.
Yeah i agree with you sir
Learn and get the knowledge first before investing.
People come here with the aim of chasing money more than knowledge and that will damage your progress trust me. chase knowledge first and i promise the money will follow you.
In the past many people didn't believe on blockchain but recently there is mass adoption, people have started investigating in Bitcoin and even Tokoin a promising Altcoin with potentials
Great presentation!
This is quite educating but personally I recommend you run a background checkup on your source before you invest. Ensure you are investing through a solid foundation source to avoid blowing money away
I made no profit with the aid of video strategies, in my years I'd trading and research the most productive effort was trading with the guidance of pro Maxwell Smith and getting my profit through him, he renders good trading assistance contact her I trust he'll help you earn.
+1 9 7 2:9 4 7 8: 7 2 1.📲📲📲
W H A T S A P P👆
All this while I thought I was the only one earning through Maxwell, seeing you speak good of her here has increased my trust for him
Excellent presentation!
Those scammer they promise to make yoU $50,000 profit within the space of 7 days with just $500 to invest and end up not even refunding your capital but Felix is a man of integrity, with $5,000, he will tell you he can only make profit within the range of $13,000 and he actually delivers.
Amen!
1:29 aloo imprecionante video me encanto ansioso de el siguiente grabación los dejo les dejo besitos agradecido
Douglas J. PEPE has just put me into the Blockchain World by underlying the meaningful of Blockchain and so Blockchain is going to lead me for me to paid my attention thank to partners.
Yess
It is a method to make transactions more secure though cryptography and saving the record on many other databases.
Can someone explain the diagram on 4:56?
It's copied from the white paper on Bitcoin.
Yes - those were snapshots of the Satoshi white paper sections describing the blockchain, time stamps, proof of work and the probability of an attack chain. If you have not read it, it is one of the most fascinating reads out there. Check out the bitcoin dot org website.
Best presentation of a very interesting concept
1 min 07. Who is this guy ? Is it the legendary Sir Alex Fergusen explaining his 4-4-2 formation ?
you didnt really go into why we do not need to trust worry about trust with blockchain/ crypto, maybe i missed it?
it was kind of left out. there are 2 main aspects that make it trust-free: the proof of work mining and the ability for anyone to run and verify the blockchain ledger themselves.
@@SAL-fs1mr I've been learning more about it, my question at the moment is why is ethereum going down in value..is it due to bit coin and why
@@ChadwickEisman To me, it seems the market is doing it's usual thing - periods of boom and bust. I've seen this happen to the crypto market many times over the years.
Who is backing Bitcoin. Like if our Banks failed on us US govt has 250000 has FDIC to back that up, but how about Bitcoin?
@@HalfLash you truly believe if all the banks go under you'll get that 250000? Also, if they do give you that 250,000 itll be basically handing you a roll of toilet paper by then. Sounds like you really have no idea about finances and how banks really work. If I was you I'd stop watching 5 min videos about it and start really diving in. Because if you really think debt fake fiat money is better your in for a world of hurt in 10 years....
Sounds like Genesis from Terminator
Develooer pytho, php, c+ with bitcoin , ethereum in multimedia
Beautiful ❤️❤️
Hello. I'm actually looking for a good trader that can help me trade and make good profit, I've been seeing so many recommendations but i don't think they're trusted. Please do you have any recommendation?
Most time having knowledge or insight about a particular activity can as well be a pleasing exercise. I can boldly say that forex and crypto trading is one of the profitable money exchange services that elevates investors and their financial status.
That's true most people today have been having a lot of failures in forex and crypto sector because of poor orientation and bad experts
I have been seeing so many recommendations about Nicole Vieiraon Instagram and telegram trending, her strategy must be good for people to talk about her
I did invest with her and I made huge profits
I saw the recommendation but I didn't bother chatting her up I keep loosing teally i still don't understand how the forex market works tho
4:40
So really blockchaining is like The Borg
How profitable is cryptocurrency investment right now in 2021?
Invest wisely, seek expert insight if you're not sure where to start. Do not run the risk of losing your finances.
Thanks,, quite underrated comment. I know a lot of people who didn't seek knowledge on Crypto before investing, it ended in tears 😢
@@nancyperry2077 Do you hold some Crypto ?
Yeah for sure, I could readily relate with your comment cos I work with an expert myself.
Yeah very true, had to post. The Crypto market is still largely dependent on speculative investors like me & you who through the help of profound portfolio managers and expert advice have chosen to invest their fiat currencies into cryptocurrencies in order to profit and learn about this new asset. I work with Daniel for the best results
@@MaryAJacks-bf7vf Can I possibly contact him for some insight ? How do I go about that ?
Full information
blockchain programs are not smart contracts they are dapps
Fair point. The ETH white paper describes smart contracts as “a piece of code implementing arbitrary rules” but I could have gone further to talk about DAaps. This was really a non-technical talk. I was trying to explain the concepts to non-users who are totally unfamiliar with blockchain. Thanks for the comment.
Whatever you do, DON"T EVER USE COIN BASE.
Thanks sir
THE BILLION COIN
nice
Satoshi nakamoto is denying to the fact that he invented bitcoin.
He did say it's the future Etheruim omg!
Shinsuke Nakamura is the cousin of Satoshi Nakomoto? True of false?
Nice speaker. But he did not explain anything, including: (a) why isn't bitcoin subject to major manipulation by just one or two traders (it is! in fact, just one trader inflated its value to $30,000); and (b) why is it trustless? don't you have to trust banks like Mt. Gox to hold your bitcoin? - again, yes, and 850k went missing in 2014; (c) what security is there that the blockchain evidencing your holdings can't be destroyed or deleted? and (d) how can you trust a currency whose inventor refuses to identify himself?
Bitcoin trading is really a legitimate life changer I couldn't believe it could be so profitable thank you Mrs Evelyn T Hills for your good works
Mrs Jane is legit and her method works like magic I keep on earning every single week with her new strategy
I think I'm blessed because if not I wouldn't have met someone who is as spectacular as expert Mrs Jane
I think I'm blessed because if not I wouldn't have met someone who is as spectacular as expert Mrs Jane
I think she is the best broker I ever seen
Thanks for introducing me to Mrs Jane
My first investment with Mrs Jane gave me profit of over $24,000 us dollars and ever since then she has never failed to deliver and I can even say she's the most sincere broker I have known
There is no satoshi nakamoto! Bitcoin was designed by AI
So one day the company I work for will pay me in Bitcoin. The day that happens I'm quitting.
I think what one needs to do in the new age of the world is try innovations that would keep him/ her be financially stable. Investment of any sort is encouraged, but cryptocurrencies has an edge in delivering a quick financial response. Invest with an expert and not any of the snake oil salesmen out there.
My first investment with her Expert Mrs. Margaret gave me a whopping profit and ever since she's never failed to deliver and I can even say she's the most sincere broker I have known.
@@teresaparson3262 She's a pro at it and her success story is everywhere!
If I have to recommend anyone to invest in crypto, it would be Mrs. Margaret I'd recommend them to. She's been tried by many and she never failed anyone and will never. Mrs is obviously the best, I invested $3000 and today I'm proud and confident to say of her professionalism.
@@noahsebastian2430 Yeah I'm a living testimony of expert Mrs. Margaret she's a professional and a force to reckon with.
Mrs. Margaret has changed my financial status for the best. All thanks to my friend who introduced her to me

The concept of money has been founded by Aristotle and since then, not a word has been added or subtracted. And all economists except Waren Buffet go along with that concept.
Money existed long before Aristotle -- are you nuts??????????
@@19battlehill I didn't say money, I said the concept of money, the definition, on a scientific level. On how money must be.

It requires money to make money. This is the best secret I have discovered we don't make money. We EARN AND MULTIPLY MONEY
professional that has been there before you. The only way I can help you learn this business is if you try Mr Henry Scott. He has been a great mentor.
Being a Bitcoin trader for a few years now with Mr Henry Scott trading for me. And this is what you should know.
It's not a get rich quick field. There is lots of learning and most often you'll learn from mistakes, so trade a little bit large and loss small at first.
There are people making millions in this field, banks trade this market constantly and generate revenues, but it requires a good set of skills, you need to be disciplined, have a plan and stick that plan. Risk management is important, no matter how sure your next trade will be a killer trade.
Be prepared to blow 2-3 accounts before you learn how to trade Bitcoin decently, as I said above, the most profitable traders learned through mistakes so it's important that you start with 50% if what you can lose.
this guy 100% Ethereum shill
Poor presentation of a very interesting concept....
Best presentation of a very interesting concept, if you don't know the programming and coding , then you can't understand this lecture
@@ovigzssheross8644 very poor presentation of an interesting concept especially if you know programming, he left out the most interesting original concepts and showed not to understand the limits of cryptocurrencies, think of the statement about inflation for example

dOUBLE ENTRY BOOK KEEPING THE ITALAINS LEARNED FROM THE JEWS WHO LEARENED IT FROM THE INDIANS WHO TEHY TRADED WITH , SO PATIOLI DID NOT INVENT IT
Hi. If you listen closely I said he was the father of modern accounting and systematized the concept of a ledger. This was intentional, as I did not want to detract from the work of those who preceded him. His publication was a defining and important moment.
Such a vague assumption.
BEXAM coin will be lifted up!
Send money instantly and with no cost????? He's obviously never used bitcoin!!!! Ripples XRP will be the world standard!
It is about blockchain, not bitcoin.
factually incorrect
Nothing but a myth and an ilillusion half explained.
