DISRUPTORS: Modular Blockchains for Sovereign Communities With Hacktivist Mustafa Al-Bassam

Most blockchains, as we know them, are monolithic in nature. Nodes take care of its three core functions; consensus, data availability, settlement and execution. In contrast, modular blockchains are fundamentally different – each layer of the stack specializes in one or many of its functions. Soon, anyone will be able to deploy their own blockchain. Having co-founded Celestia, the world’s first modular blockchain network, our third DISRUPTORS guest, hacktivist Mustafa Al-Bassam shares his vision of sovereign communities and how he invented a clever hack to widely redistribute power.
