Ep 28 - Nathaniel Whittemore - The Internal and External Narratives of Decentralization

Hosted by Enigma's Head of Growth Tor Bair, our twenty-eighth episode features Nathaniel Whittemore. Nathaniel is a communications specialist in the blockchain and cryptocurrency space, and he is the mastermind behind Long Reads Sunday, where he curates the best content in the blockchain and decentralization space. He is deeply interested in how narratives evolve in our industry and the way these stories shape what we build, what we use, and what we believe. On this episode Nathaniel talks with me about the rapidly evolving narrative of privacy, how telling the right stories can drive mass adoption of new technologies, and how the gap is still widening between how the public sees blockchain and how the blockchain space sees itself. Enigma's podcast "Decentralize This!" features guests from all over the decentralization space: developers, investors, entrepreneurs, researchers, writers, artists, people in government and enterprise - all individuals who care deeply about building a more decentralized and sustainable world. How can all these people with different perspectives collaborate to create and scale the technologies we need to shape a better future? ---- Relevant links: More about Nathaniel: www.whittemore.io
