China🇨🇳 state-backed #Blockchain is integrating with 6 public blockchains.
Now just imagine anyone from anywhere will be able to build apps and run nodes using data storage and bandwidth from BSN’s overseas data centers.
🇨🇳wants to be the only infra provider to all the firms.
To add on to this we all know that 🇨🇳 controls more than half of the world’s Bitcoin mining operations — upward of 65% of the computing power to mine #Bitcoin. No other country is anywhere near that number.
What Mr. Garg said yesterday and its implications:
1. Mr. Garg's body language was very receptive yesterday he had a smile on his face for an hour and he was genuinely interested in the discussion. Yes, that could be because he is not holding the chair anymore.
Part-1...
2. Mr. Garg seemed hostile toward the word "Currencies" as no one other than a sovereign nation has the right and duty to issue and manage "currencies".
This is ok as there is hardly any nation on planet who is willing to allow crypto as "Legal Tender".
Part-2..
Mr. Garg seemed impressed with the setup, background of speakers, and obviously, the number of viewers registered to listen to his views. On quite a number of occasions, he called @NischalShetty by his name and added his views to his examples.
