    088 - Will nuclear power be a key future low-carbon energy source for the world? | On-chain FTDAO vote

    088 - Will nuclear power be a key future low-carbon energy source for the world? | On-chain FTDAO vote

    In the latest episode of Boom! It's on the Blockchain we have a special guest joining us, Arpan Mondal from FTDAO who discusses an on-chain vote for his DAO - Will nuclear power be a key future low-carbon energy source for the world?



    In this podcast will provide an overview of FTDAO, and a demonstration of how an on-chain DAO vote works, and discusses Nuclear Power as a key energy source going forward in the world.


    Nuclear power currently accounts for 10% of the world's electrical energy generation, and it does not produce greenhouse gas emissions during electricity generation, making it attractive for addressing climate change concerns.

    The role of nuclear power in the future energy landscape is a subject of ongoing debate and depends on various factors, including technological advancements, public perception, regulatory frameworks, and global energy policies.

    In order to understand, nuclear power has a high energy density, meaning a small amount of nuclear fuel can produce a large amount of energy, contributing to energy security.

    Nuclear power plants can provide continuous, reliable "base load" power, which is essential for maintaining a stable electricity supply. Ongoing research into advanced reactor designs, such as Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) and Generation IV reactors, aims to address some of the challenges associated with traditional nuclear power, including safety, cost, and waste management.

    Public perception of nuclear power varies, and concerns about safety, nuclear accidents, and radioactive waste disposal can influence the future development of nuclear energy. Especially with accidents such as Chernobyl and Fukushima have raised significant safety concerns, contributing to public apprehension about nuclear power.

    The question to the DAO, is are you For or Against Nuclear Power as a key energy source in the developing world?

    087 - What is a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO)? | FTDAO

    In the latest episode of Boom! It's on the Blockchain we have a special guest joining us, Arpan Mondal from FTDAO to discuss what is a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO)?



    Arpan explains the fundamental features of DAOs, such as decentralization, autonomy, transparency, community governance, and token-based ownership. Additionally, the versatility of DAOs in various applications within the blockchain space, such as managing DeFi protocols, funding and governance of projects, and community-driven initiatives.

    The Essence of FTDAO

    Arpan Mondal, an advocate for sustainable energy and a key figure in FTDAO, emphasizes that the token is more than a mere digital asset. It is a strategic tool that aims to democratize access to sustainable energy investments, fostering transparency and community-driven decision-making.

    One of the defining features of FTDAO is its inclusive governance model. Token holders possess the power to actively participate in the decision-making processes of the DAO, ushering in a decentralized approach to energy project governance. This democratic ethos allows individuals, regardless of their stake, to have a say in the direction of investments and initiatives.

    Holders of FTDAO tokens exercise their voting rights to shape the trajectory of the DAO's investments. This voting power is not confined to the privileged few; rather, it extends to the entire FTDAO community. The goal is clear: to empower a diverse range of stakeholders to contribute to sustainability efforts and collectively drive positive change.

    FTDAO's primary mission is to utilize the token to fund investments in green energy technologies and sustainable energy production. By doing so, the DAO aims to catalyze projects that promote environmental responsibility while generating positive returns for its community of investors.

    As the world grapples with the urgent need for sustainable energy solutions, FTDAO emerges as a beacon of hope and innovation. Arpan Mondal's insights into this DAO highlight the transformative potential of community-driven initiatives, where every token holder becomes a stakeholder in a greener, more sustainable future.

    In a significant stride towards broader accessibility and recognition, Fund Token DAO (FTDAO) has recently secured a listing on the Azbit Exchange, a move endorsed by none other than the prominent figure in the cryptocurrency space, Roger Ver.

    Arpan Mondal states, "The listing on Azbit Exchange marks a pivotal moment for FTDAO, opening up new avenues for liquidity and exposure. Azbit, known for its commitment to fostering innovation in the blockchain space, provides a robust platform for FTDAO to reach a broader audience of investors and enthusiasts."

    In conclusion, FTDAO is not just a token; it is a testament to the power of decentralized decision-making, transparency, and community involvement in shaping the future of sustainable energy. As we move forward, initiatives like FTDAO serve as a blueprint for a more inclusive and sustainable approach to energy investments, paving the way for a brighter and greener tomorrow.

    085 - Climate Change, War, and Distributed Power: A Complex Interplay | Jonathan Knight

    085 - Climate Change, War, and Distributed Power: A Complex Interplay | Jonathan Knight

    In the latest episode of BOOM! It's on the Blockchain we are joined by Jonathan Knight, CEO of Uprise Energy to discuss Climate Change, Israel & Palestine Conflict, and Distributed Power: A Complex Interplay.
    The intersection of climate change, the Israel-Palestine conflict, and the concept of distributed power presents a complex and multifaceted web of challenges and opportunities. While these issues may seem unrelated at first glance, they share a deep connection that requires careful consideration.
    In this podcast we discuss the complex interplay between climate change, the Israel-Palestine conflict, and the concept of distributed power illustrates the importance of addressing global issues through a multidisciplinary lens. Climate change acts as a stressor that exacerbates existing tensions, but distributed power offers a path towards resilience, collaboration, and conflict resolution.
    Jonathan elucidates that apart from providing immediate access to electricity, distributed power systems have the capacity to foster economic opportunities and catalyze economic growth, which, in turn, addresses fundamental social and economic challenges within a given region. Projects centered around distributed power sources, such as mobile wind turbines, play a pivotal role in broadening the local economic landscape. They introduce supplementary revenue streams and diminish the country's reliance on a solitary energy source, typically fossil fuels, thus enhancing economic resilience and independence.
    Jonathan Knight is a Cofounder and CEO of Uprise Energy, a San Diego, CA based startup that is building the world’s first commercially sized mobile wind turbines. Prior to Uprise, Jonathan was the Senior VP and General Manager of Knight & Carver Yacht Center, an award winning and globally recognized custom yacht builder that also operated the largest marine repair facility on the West Coast of the Americas.
