Like all consumer tech apps, Kik has millions ofactive users and raised $120M from top VCs.However, it struggled with growth , and itstruggled with monetization. As a result, Kikcreated its own cryptocurrency, Kin, in 2017 andraised $100M in doing so. The company now has anew vision (make Kin the most usedcryptocurrency in the world) and a clear path tosuccess (make Kin the currency for consumerapps), all because of blockchain technology. Whilepursuing a blockchain business strategy madesense for Kik, it isn’t the right for every company.In this fireside, Robert Hackett of Fortune and TedLivingston, founder and CEO of Kik and Kin, willexplore when it’s right for companies to useblockchain technology.https://panelpicker.sxsw.com/vote/88050

art scholar, a CryptoKitties founder, and the co-founder of a decentralized title network for artand collectibles, the conversation will explore andexplain the trend of collecting “rare” art on theblockchain, and its implications for artists andpatrons. For instance: what was once free andinfinitely copy-able—a digital art file—is beingtransformed by blockchain companies intosomething that can be sold as a one-of-a-kind“original.” Does this signify that owning an originalis beginning to matter again, like owning a musicalbum once did?https://panelpicker.sxsw.com/vote/82085

A Crypto Anarchist or Crypto AuthoritarianFuture
Lance Hayden, Assistant Professor, Universityof Texas School of Information
Blockchain emerged from libertarian roots,promising to reshape world by decentralizingpower & returning it to individuals. Historicallysuch technologies can fare poorly, hijacked by thevery institutions they meant to disempower.Blockchains & cryptocurrency platforms born fromcypherpunk & crypto anarchist idealism could alsobe corrupted to support more dystopian agendas.I’ll explore how crypto anarchy inspired blockchain& the promise it holds for a decentralized future.I’ll contrast that future with the possibility thesetechnologies could be subverted into newinfrastructures of state & corporate dominance. I’lldraw on illustrative case studies of other liberatingtechnologies gone awry, discuss the threatsblockchain technologies face, & explore strategiesfor avoiding failure.https://panelpicker.sxsw.com/vote/85187
