S3E3 Meet the Baker with Chris Pinnock

In this episode of InfoMatters Podcast, we sit down with Chris Pinnock to explore the unique world of Tezos and its innovative proof-of-stake consensus.

We discuss: How Tezos’ proof-of-stake differs from other blockchains The technical challenges of scalability, security, and governance Lessons learned from Tezos’ self-amending upgrade process The role of bakers in long-term sustainability and decentralization Strategies to attract developers and projects into the Tezos ecosystem How Tezos stays competitive in a fast-moving blockchain landscape Chris’s personal vision for Tezos and the broader crypto space 🎧 Whether you’re a blockchain enthusiast, developer, or investor, this conversation offers a deep dive into what makes Tezos unique and where it’s headed. 📖 Special offer for our listeners: Learning Russian Verbs on Leanpub — get a discount with code INFOMATTERS35. https://leanpub.com/learningrussianverbs/c/INFOMATTERS35 Also available in paperback and soon in hardback on Amazon. 🌐 Follow us: Website: https://www.infomatterspodcast.com Instagram: /extelligencecz LinkedIn: /extelligence-sro Website: https://www.extelligence.com TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@extelligence 📩 Contact us: [email protected]
