This is part of this great Decentralized Web Summit That I went to. I clip some of the audio, very informative and interesting stuff.
It was a jam pack Panel: Naming & User Identities in Decentralized Networks
Christopher Allen: Blockstream, Open source code and developer sidechains for advancing Bitcoin.As a pioneer in internet cryptography, he’s initiated cross-industry collaborations and created industry standards that influence the entire internet. He worked with Netscape to develop SSL and co-authored the IETF TLS internet draft that is now at the heart of all secure commerce on the World Wide Web. Though he’s worked within numerous privacy and security sectors, Christopher’s recent emphasis has been on engines of trust such as blockchain, smart contracts, and smart signatures, in particular decentralized self-sovereign identity.
Muneeb Ali: Muneeb Ali is the Co-founder and CTO of Blockstack Labs. Blockstack is an application stack for decentralized, server-less apps secured by the blockchain.
Joachim Lohkamp: Joachim is an entrepreneur and tech enthusiast. He is obsessed with knowledge, change and innovation. Currently, he is Founder and CEO of Jolocom, a Berlin-based startup building decentralized tools that lets you generate your own digital identity to assist linkage and attribution of data.
Jeremy Rand: Jeremy is Lead Application Engineer and Community Organizer of Namecoin, a naming system (currently used for DNS and identities) which backs authenticity of records with the same algorithms and code used to back financial transactions in Bitcoin. Jeremy wears many hats at Namecoin but spends much of his time working on applications which enhance online privacy.
