Free My Vunk is a movement to port game items and assets into the blockchain. The goal is to give control of these hard won in game rewards entirely to the players themselves. On the surface this seems like a simple, maybe even mundane use case but the significance a gamer may attach to a specific achievement can be a real source of economic value. We see this in phenomena like world of warcraft gold mining and character sale. This is an especially interesting project due to the numerous collaborations involved.

todays episode is my favourite of all, not to diminish all of the wonderful interviews and guests I've been lucky enough to have on the show. Sorry Adam, I forgot to thank you for getting me into this. The mark of a great catalyst is that he's taken for granted :-) Enjoy.

Austrian economics is one of these impenetrable black boxes that you hear referenced occasionally but that has little meaning for many people. Recently I was perusing Cameron Harwick's blog, Thrica where I periodically go to soak up some free market goodness, and I found myself re-reading a post entitled Hayek vs. Rothbard on Free-Market Money. The article and the comments illucidate many interesting and relevant ideas that can not only help us understand cryptocurrency but also show that the problem of discovering what is a good kind of money has been mulled over by brilliant people long before the cypherpunks sunk their teeth into it. A clearly novel approach has been taken by the team working on Bitshares. I asked Dan Larimer to explane the roots of his idea and update us on the progress of the platform.
