<p>I found this clip of the founder of Bittorrent and his thoughts on Bitcoin and his Chia project. </p>
<p>Bram Cohen - creator of BitTorrent and co-founder of Chia - wants to build a better Bitcoin and make the crypto ecosystem a cleaner, greener place. The peer-to-peer tech pioneer has a provocative perspective on the current crypto community, blockchain generally, and what needs to change. We explore what inspires him as an inventor, an early citizen of the Internet, and a socially conscious developer.</p>
