Daniel Lehnberg and Michael Cordner, core team members of Grin, discuss the first implementation of the MimbleWimble protocol, named after a tongue-tying curse in Harry Potter. We discuss the many ways in which Grin is similar to Bitcoin: its origin story, its goal to be "digital cash," as Satoshi's paper was subtitled, and even its emission schedule. We discuss how Grin is private, how it is lighter weight than the Bitcoin blockchain, and the philosophy behind Grin, which stands in stark contrast to the many ICOs.\n For the full show notes, go to http://www.forbes.com/sites/laurashin/2019/04/09/a-nimbler-more-private-version-of-bitcoin/\n Thank you to our sponsor!\n CipherTrace: http://ciphertrace.com/unchained\n Episode links:\n Grin: https://grin-tech.org\n Grin newsletter: https://grinnews.substack.com\n Daniel Lehnberg: https://twitter.com/lehnberg?lang=en\n Michael Cordner: https://twitter.com/yeastplume?lang=en\n MimbleWimble white paper: https://scalingbitcoin.org/papers/mimblewimble.txt\n Grin Intros:\n https://github.com/mimblewimble/grin/blob/master/doc/intro.md\n https://github.com/mimblewimble/grin/blob/master/doc/grin4bitcoiners.md\n Circle Research report on MimbleWimble technology:\n https://research.circle.com/crypto-reports/mimblewimble\n Grin's monetary policy \u2014 visually, easier to see how its similar in effect to Bitcoin's: https://github.com/mimblewimble/docs/wiki/Monetary-Policy\n https://www.tokendaily.co/blog/on-grin-mimblewimble-and-monetary-policy\n Questions about whether Grin got the incentives right: https://twitter.com/nlw/status/1091319888562532355\n https://twitter.com/TusharJain_/status/1091316903346429952\n Tracking YeastPlume\u2019s funding: https://grin-tech.org/yeastplume\n Ignotus Peverell post noting his disappointment in funding for YeastPlume: https://www.grin-forum.org/t/solved-early-disappointments/3682\n Interview with Ignotus Peverell: https://breakermag.com/grin-founder-ignotus-peverell-on-life-after-launch-and-the-path-forward/\n Conversation with Grin developers: https://medium.com/@BHEXOfficial/bhex-original-ignotus-grin-as-bitcoins-younger-more-nimble-brother-612efadd0478\nLearn more about your ad choices.
