Episode description

In this Special Episode, we hosted a Live Panel featuring Riley Eller of Rubica, Inc., Ronald Nixon of Polyverse Corporation, and Haseeb Awan of Efani, to discuss the recent hack on Twitter, leading to he worlds most famous people having their accounts compromised, with hackers tweeting on their behalf saying they'd give away money to those who would deposit #bitcoin into their accounts. This was at a massive scale with the accounts of Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, Kanye West, President Obama, and Elon Musk, just to name a few.

The hackers could have done far worse damage then take a few #bitcoin, with many online pointing out that a global catastrophe could have happened if the hackers tweeted the wrong thing in mass.

In this episode we discuss;
- Implication of the event
- How did it happen?
- Could this have been prevented?
- Why did they ask for #bitcoin?
- How does centralization vs decentralization impact what happened?
