On this Worker's day it might be fitting to watch our latest episode where we discussed the problem with the South African mindset where it is shown more South Africans are searching for how to qualify for Government Grants(SASSA) rather than jobs.

We turned it around and looked at opportunities Founders could try exploit with our high unemployment rates by referencing some great examples already out there.

Episode 5 in the countdown

We are honoured to have Revix founder Sean Sanders join us regularly on the Cryptonomics Show. There have been a multitude of lessons and conversations helping people not only understand blockchain and crypto, but the financial markets and trends as a whole.

Clear the current FTX/Steinhof noise and a conversation that stood out, was around understanding the Ethereum merge back in September, that moved the way blockchain entries are verified through a Proof of Stake system versus the ‘traditonal’ Proof of Work mechanism.

This made maintaining the blockchain 99% more energy efficient, on the back of many commentators calling Bitcoin and blockchains bad for the environment. The process went off flawlessly, which was a huge success for the space.
