Nitin Gaur: Blockchain and The Future of Finance | Proof Of Work With Shiv Mehta Episode 19

I recently had Nitin Gaur on The Proof Of Work Podcast, whose wisdom I deeply respect as a senior technology pioneer.

Nitin boasts educational and leadership credentials in America coupled with cultural fluency earned abroad. He leverages this unique global perspective to enlighten students on blockchain's potential for evolving traditional systems. Our invigorating discussion ventured from philosophical questions of identity to complex concepts like zero-knowledge proofs.

We explored the excitement of crossing borders, the grace in adapting to new environments, and technology's power to transform tradition while retaining humanity.
