Sid is part of the founding team of Neighbourhoods, which is focussed on the role of reputation in an online world. Before we talk about that initiative we dive into his past growing up in India, joining the banking system, abandoning that for several years including time at the Ghandi Ashram, thinking about the true meaning of wealth, finding that distributed ledger technology could be used to measure reputation and what Neighbourhoods is. I think it has real potential and am a supporter of the Project and have invested a small amount too. This is the longest of the interviews recorded because we talked about so many different topics - if you enjoy this style then make sure to check out one of the others in the back catalogue at www.theseeds.nz because there are almost 300 of them.
