b'Episode #65: Ian Panchevre: Men Will Be Angels?\\n\\nOn today\\u2019s show I have the great privilege of speaking with Ian Panchevre (pronounced pun-shev). Ian is a political scientist from Yale whose primary studies include political theory and political psychology. Most recently, Ian has been researching the internal politics of the Bitcoin community. He\'s interested in both the "informal power networks" that have formed among miners and core developers, as well as the "formal power structures" like the Bitcoin Foundation. He will be self-publishing his research paper at the end of April. Beyond his studies in political science, Ian is a technology entrepreneur. His current business, Prepd, is building educational technology. Ian was recently offered deferred admissions to Harvard Business School and Stanford Graduate School of Business; he plans to enroll in business school in a few years. Ian is originally from San Antonio, TX.\\n\\nProfessional transcriptions are provided each week by one of our fans who can be found at:\\n\\nhttp://diaryofafreelancetranscriptionist.com\\n\\nCREDITS:\\n\\nIan Panchevre \\u2013 Yale University\\n\\nBooks:\\n\\nJohn Locke\'s Second Treatise of Government - http://www.earlymoderntexts.com/pdfs/locke1689a.pdf\\n\\nRobert Nozick\'s Anarchy, State, and Utopia - http://www.colorado.edu/philosophy/provisionalia/nozick.pdf\\n\\nV\\xe1clav Havel\'s Power of the Powerless - http://vaclavhavel.cz/showtrans.php?cat=eseje&val=2_aj_eseje.html&typ=HTML\\n\\nPeter Ludlow\'s Crypto Anarchy, Cyberstates, and Pirate Utopias - http://www.amazon.com/Crypto-Anarchy-Cyberstates-Pirate-Utopias/dp/0262621517\\n\\nRichard Sclove\'s Democracy and Technology - http://www.amazon.com/Democracy-Technology-Conduct-Science-Series/dp/089862861X\\n\\nArticles and Papers:\\n\\nSarah Jeong\'s "The Bitcoin Protocol as Law, and the Politics of a Stateless Currency" - http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2294124\\n\\nGervais, Karame, and Capkun\'s "Is Bitcoin a Decentralized Currency?" - https://eprint.iacr.org/2013/829.pdf\\n\\nKroll, Davey, and Felten\'s "The Economics of Bitcoin Mining, or Bitcoin in the Presence of Adversaries" - http://www.weis2013.econinfosec.org/papers/KrollDaveyFeltenWEIS2013.pdf\\n\\nVinay Gupta\'s "Governing Bitcoin" talk - http://vinay.howtolivewiki.com/blog/other/my-bitcoin-expo-london-talk-nov-2013-with-transcript-3539\\n\\nPrepd\\n\\nMuchBitcoin.org\\n\\ninfo@tealet.com\\n\\n\\n___________________________________________________________\\n\\nOde To Satoshi\\n\\nOde to Satoshi lyrics & melody by John Barrett\\nCopyright 2014 RJM Publishing - BMI Nashville. \\n\\nInterviews for this episode were recorded and edited by John Barrett at The Tree House Studio - Nashville, Tennessee.
