In the latest episode of Blockworks’ podcast “Empire,” Jason is joined by Nevin Freeman, co-Founder & CEO of Reserve. Nevin set out to create Reserve as a way to protect individuals from currency destroying hyperinflation, providing access to a stable currency and financial services.

Jason & Nevin discuss how having access to a stable currency is a human right, challenges of creating a stablecoin, hyperinflation, and developments in the cryptocurrency industry.

They also discuss:

  • The most interesting projects in crypto
  • How Reserve is used
  • and so much more!

Check out what they had to say in the video below. 👇

On “Empire,” once a week, Jason interviews individuals that have built the crypto industry to talk about their struggles, bold moves and tough decisions. For any NPR or Guy Raz fans out there, you can think of “Empire” like a “How I Built This” for the bitcoin and crypto industry.

Episodes are released every Thursday morning.

Despite Aptos being a relatively young blockchain when compared to other L1s, a combination of design choices, network adoption, partnerships, and dApp development proves that the network is primed for breakout momentum over the coming years.
