Arthur Breitman - How To Build A Transparent DeFi System That Will Bring Freedom & Opportunities

Co-Founder of Tezos

The cryptocurrency space and the realm of decentralised finance continue transforming at an exponential rate – on what feels at times like a minute-by-minute basis. What is possible and what can be achieved is hard to quantify given the levels of innovation and pace of development we’ve witnessed so far.

What is crucial to our experience in many different walks of life, is our ability to zoom out, to look at the bigger picture and make considered and well-informed decisions based on having access to the right information.

Today’s guest is certainly a man who does just that and has been looking at the big picture for almost a decade. Arthur Breitman is a former research engineer and quantitative analyst turned cryptocurrency entrepreneur, who alongside his wife Kathleen founded the original Ethereum killer – Tezos.

It was back in 2014 that, having spent a great deal of time studying Bitcoin and the machinations of Satoshi’s whitepaper, Arthur proposed his own thesis based on the challenging dynamics of decentralisation and its relationship to protocol governance.

For this reason and many more, Tezos made a big splash on the crypto scene. In fact, their initial coin offering back in 2017 raised $232 million in Bitcoin and Ethereum and was one of the first projects to incorporate proof-of-stake. It was the reason why Tezos truly was earmarked as the blockchain project of the future.

Tezos is an open-source platform for assets and applications that can evolve by upgrading itself. Stakeholders govern upgrades to the core protocol, including upgrades to the amendment process itself.

Being at the forefront of cryptocurrency innovation also brings with it challenges and Arthur alongside his wife have encountered many, but remain undeterred in their determination to lead the race when it comes to smart contract success.

They have worked continuously to educate and inspire the next wave of visionaries and over the last twelve months have seen huge adoption in both the NFT and DeFi space. Gap and McLaren are just two of the major players that have chosen Tezos as the landing ground for their digital collectable items.

The governance model Tezos has adopted puts longevity and evolution at its core, which is why perhaps in 2022 we can expect a resurgence in interest and adoption on this platform. Arthur is playing the long game and he knows only too well the power of patience.

As Arthur himself puts it,

“The idea with Tezos was to build a cryptocurrency and smart contract platform which had formal governance at its core, allowing the users of the platform to decide how it should evolve.”

DeFi and Blockchain will completely revolutionise the way we as consumers understand and interact with our money. It is a chance to create Financial Freedom and be a part of something, to engineer a better and more inclusive future for billions of people around the world.

I’m looking for partners, collaborators, and colleagues who want to join forces with us and create real value and generational wealth. It is an opportunity you don’t want to miss and exactly the reason why I created the DeFi Academy in the first place. Now is the time to get educated, find mentorship, and trade with a community you can trust.

Our next LIVE course, The DeFi Accelerator – The Keys to Unlock a $9 Trillion Marketplace, is closing soon. Do Not Miss Out.

Remember something and this is important – we really are just at the beginning of a whole new era for information, entertainment and finance and you have the opportunity to take your seat at the table and create wealth you only previously dreamed of.

So check out my DeFi Academy and make that first step toward securing your future.
