If you've been thinking about getting into cryptocurrency or are new to it, this podcast is for you. Chris Kitze, CEO of FlashCoin, a private blockchain platform for both application development and incentive based consumer marketing. Kitze describes that, despite the importance of Bitcoin to the marketplace, it has flaws that have allowed competitors such as FlashCoin to gain footholds in the industry. In other words, in many respects, such as buying other forms of cryptocurrency, Bitcoin is irreplaceable; yet, Bitcoin is also slow and incurs too many fees that make small transactions impractical. Kitze believes that Flash, the unit of exchange, offers a better solution. He also explains the type of governance model on which the Flash philosophy is based and the most important challenge to overcome. He also touches on the prospects of a future gold-backed cryptocoin as well as those of a U.S.-based exchange and why there isn't one now. He also explains whether or not Donald Trump as President is beneficial to the industry. He shares his predictions for Bitcoin, FlashCoin, and the cryptocurrency market overall for the remainder of 2017 and into 2018. If Bitcoins interest you, you'll want to hear Kitze's predictions for its future worth (hint: the current $2000 or so for one coin is a pittance). Finally, he reveals the best way to keep abreast of all the action in cryptocurrencies. Here's what else you'll learn: * Why Kitze believes that the current state of the industry "is a replay of the dot-com boom" and what the consequences could be * The five specific advantages of FlashCoin over Bitcoin and why the model being built is considered an eBay-type over-the-counter digital trading platform * That now is a perfect time for software developers to get in and the three things that his and other cryptocurrency companies are looking for in developers Listen, Share and Subscribe to get the latest, news and updates in technology.

For ages, I've been saying there's a moat, or a chasm, between cryptocurrency and fiat currency. There are just some things you can't do with crypto yet. Now, though, that's beginning to change. Now, with A.I. Coin, you can invest with crypto. Gavin Smith of A.I. Coin explains: "We allow people to trade stocks, trade futures, trade for an exchange using their cryptocurrency as collateral to make investments and trades." The thing is, we're still crossing that chasm: there are all sorts of real-world challenges with cryptocurrency trading that have never been faced before. Challenges unlike those of more regular, established markets—like gold, or fiat. Tune in to learn more about A.I. Coin from Gavin Smith.

Senescent cells play a uniquely dual role in the body: in the younger stages of life, they are crucial in helping heal wounds, yet later in life, they contribute to certain aspects of aging. The powerful influence senescence cells have on the body is what drives Peter de Keizer, an anti-aging researcher at Erasmus University Medical Center in the Netherlands. In this Future Tech "Almost Here" podcast, Anti-Aging, de Keizer takes us deep into his research. His goal is to find a way to purge these senescent cells before they cause irreparable damage. When a cell reaches its damage threshold, it either dies (apoptosis) or hibernates (senescence). de Keizer discusses what happens when the cells that refuse to die begin to accumulate and how he and his team have found two different ways to disrupt cell senescence. While this seems like great news, de Keizer explains that if done in the wrong way or at the wrong time, the cells can turn toxic and cause unintended damage. He also describes the results from experiments on aging mice and what it might mean for humans. Since the effects on both long-term health and on healthy people in their 50s and 60s still need to be determined, de Keizer also cautions against people who are understandably eager to acquire this at any cost and describes what's happening to people who are going about it the wrong way. You'll also learn: * Why cell death is more common when you're younger and cell senescence more common when you're older as well as what determines cell death or senescence * The science behind why this is not the Elixir of Life to make you immortal but instead is a method to improve your health span (i.e., quality of life) in your later years; even so, though our lifespans are increasing, there might actually be an age cap that humans cannot surpass * What's in store for the rest of 2017 and into 2018: despite all the challenges, are we really this close to a breakthrough?

Here's a few of the things he'll share: * How Blockchain Intel can help investors understand the areas that blockchain is moving toward and help them invest accordingly * The top weaknesses of the blockchain industry today * How Blockchain Intel is bridging the gap between business as usual and business according to blockchain *If you've learned something from this podcast episode, please subscribe, spread the word and donate a few bitcoins along the way.
The rise of the cryptocurrency sector and Bitcoin especially, is one of the most exciting advances of the last seven years. What lies behind these incredible developments and what changes might we see in the coming years?

You'll also discover where Bitcoin's limitations lie and how the next generation of cryptocurrencies are building up and improving the Bitcoin protocol. Finally, you'll learn what's likely to lie ahead for Bitcoin and its competitors and how steady growth in the sector may see the increasing use of cryptocurrencies by large corporations and, one day, even nation states.

Just like you can go to the gym to train your body, you can also learn exercises to train your brain. These brain workouts are clinically proven to improve memory and intelligence, but they can also increase your brain's processing speed. The latter could save your life. In fact, a study from the National Institute of Health found that people who performed brain processing exercises for just 10 hours reduced their at-fault automobile accidents by 50% within a five year span. Dr. Mahncke shares how BrainHQ does this and much more in this episode of the FutureTech podcast. Here's a few other things you'll discover: * The age at which you reach your cognitive peak * Why brain exercises benefit people of all ages, not just the elderly * How Brain HQ enhanced Tom Brady's vision response time and improved his in-game performance * If you like what you're hearing on the FutureTech podcast please subscribe and donate bitcoins.
