'What Is Ethereum? Learning Crypto with Amy on The HackerNoon Podcast' by hackernoon hackernoonpodcast ethereum
[00:00:00] Amy: Uh, Hey, Andrew, this is a safe space, right? Like it's just the two of us here. Nobody else has listened to this. Right. So I can ask all my dumb questions right now.[00:00:24] Amy: All right. Anyways, I, of course am your host, Amy, Tom. And this is The HackerNoon Podcast joining me today, as I have just alluded to is Andrew Levine from Koinos Group. Thank you very much for joining me today. I have a lot of dumb questions about Ethereum for you today.
And there, there's no reason that, you know, intelligent people like yourself should find this technology. Inaccessible other than a failing on our part as the technologists to explain it. So I'm happy to be here. And I'm happy to have this conversation with you now, a theory about a theory. I think it's really helpful.
realization that Vitalic. The inventor of Ethereum hat. He probably wasn't the only one to start realizing this.

[00:11:17] Andrew: There's a few things that aren't great about Ethereum, many of which trace back to the fact that it's just old, that it was the first. So they had to build a lot of stuff themselves. They had to build their programming language themselves and to bring their, build their virtual machine themselves.
