Episode #65: Ian Panchevre: Men Will Be Angels?
On today’s show I have the great privilege of speaking with Ian Panchevre (pronounced pun-shev). Ian is a political scientist from Yale whose primary studies include political theory and political psychology. Most recently, Ian has been researching the internal politics of the Bitcoin community. He's interested in both the "informal power networks" that have formed among miners and core developers, as well as the "formal power structures" like the Bitcoin Foundation. He will be self-publishing his research paper at the end of April. Beyond his studies in political science, Ian is a technology entrepreneur. His current business, Prepd, is building educational technology. Ian was recently offered deferred admissions to Harvard Business School and Stanford Graduate School of Business; he plans to enroll in business school in a few years. Ian is originally from San Antonio, TX.
