Vitalik Buterin on Why Proof of Stake?

Vitalik Buterin comes to the Bankless YouTube to discuss a number of topics surrounding Proof of Stake!

We begin discussing the Beacon Chain launch, and the Ethereum's road so far up to this point. 

We also discuss the theory and thought-process behind Proof of Stake! Vitalik recently wrote a blog piece 'Why Proof of Stake', and we walk through this piece with him!

Why Proof of Stake: 
https://vitalik.ca/general/2020/11/06/pos2020.html

Lastly, we discuss one of Vitalik's blog pieces 'Concave and Convex Dispositions, and how these different personality types characterize Bitcoin and Ethereum, as well as the design of social groups and human governance organizations. 

Convex and Concave Dispositions
