This week on Taking Stock, Chives sits down for a full one on one interview with John Wooten. John is a published author, has a series of financial education videos online, and founded BlockTransfer. BlockTransfer is an SEC approved Transfer Agent using a public blockchain called Stellar to track issuer ledgers and investor ownership.

Chives and John talk broadly about the various major issues which plague the modern capital markets, how a perverse incentive system separates working people from their wealth, and the archaic financial tradition which hasn’t undergone major rethinking in thousands of years.

This conversation is a whirlwind and you won’t want to miss it.
