Ep 57 - Reserve Protocol, an alternative to stablecoin projects with Nevin Freeman

The Reserve Protocol

This story about a stablecoin project called the Reserve Protocol
is far different from most stablecoin projects you've heard of.
Reserve's approach is to solve one of humanity's greatest
challenges by creating an ethical and stable currency
without government control. Combatting corruption of
governments or central banks while protecting against
hyperinflation are just a few of the driving forces behind this
project.


I really enjoyed speaking with Nevin Freeman, Cofounder and CEO
of the Reserve Protocol. Specifically, what really drew me to
this project were the positive things that I noticed about the
brand. I don't remember the last time I saw a blockchain or
crypto company with a whole webpage dedicate to ethics. Nevin and
I get to connect over the inspiration and motivation to take on a
project of this magnitude. We take a bit of a deep dive into his
background growing up and his desire to solve problems for humans
across the globe.
 Reserve Ethics

Today there is a severe lack of transparency and trust in many of
the world’s monetary systems. Hundreds of millions of people live
in countries without stable currencies, resulting in dramatic
losses of wealth. This inability to effectively protect savings
prevents people from planning for the future and bettering
themselves. The world needs a stable, global, digital currency
that gives people autonomy and control of their money.


This is not your typical cryptocurrency company or ICO. This team
has a huge vision and the resume to back it up. They have more
investors listed on their website than they have employees. This
is not a measure of future success, but what it shows is people
love solving problems and money is one of them. I hope a
stablecoin solution emerges soon. Enjoy the show.
