The Blockchain Show is a weekly podcast that demystifies cryptocurrencies and distributed ledger technology.

Sep 16, 2019

Kevin Wang is a co-founder of Nervos, a public blockchain designed by a former Ethereum core developer and backed by Sequoia, Polychain, and others. As one of China's top projects, Nervos recently partnered with crypto exchange Huobi to build a new public chain for banks and financial institutions.

Kevin was responsible for Nervos' unique token economics design where users will eventually pay "rent" to store assets and smart contracts on the network. He believes this type of model is critical if blockchains are to scale. Same goes for the layered design, which splits the public consensus layer from the transactional layer to increase a blockchain's performance while balancing security and trust.
