On April 3rd, 2015, Cryptofresh Pictures had the chance to interview Dan Larimer at the Bitshares headquarters in Blacksburg, Virginia.

While some of the footage from that interview was included in the original Bitshares Peer To Peer Tour Video, the rest has not been seen, until now.


In a wide-ranging and forward-thinking interview, Dan Larimer gives us some insight into his personal philosophy, as well as his perspectives on the many issues, possibilities, and opportunities confronting those within the cryptocurrency space, and the whole of society.


In Part 1 - @dantheman answers these questions:

  • Why now?
  • What gives you hope?
  • How do cryptocurrencies like Bitshares help solve some of the issues that stem from deregulated financial industries?
    -and-
  • What do you see as the ideal form of human organization?

To many on Steemit, @dan, or @dantheman, needs no introduction.

Dan Larimer is the co-founder, and lead developer of several second generation cryptocurrencies including Bitshares, Steem, and is currently leading the development of the EOS blockchain as CTO of BlockOne.

In my estimation, Dan's words are still just as relevant as ever, and amazingly so considering they were recorded over 2 years ago! Dan Larimer answered all our questions with only a cursory awareness of what we were about to ask him. I hope you all enjoy the video and hopefully, the interview will spark some interesting discussion here.

Best wishes,
@lovejoy
