Conversations about the crypto world often seem like a pitched battle between supporters and detractors.  Vitalik Buterin joins the show to discuss what really matters and what's really showing promise in crypto.  We discuss why so many are skeptical of crypto, whether cryptocurrency has too much space in the discussion, and what the most interesting and innovative non-currency applications of crypto are - include smart contracts, DAOs, and more. Why should you care about what's happening in crypto?  Listen and find out!
