    Understanding the Conflict Behind the Arrest of Huawei's CFO in Canada

    Understanding the Conflict Behind the Arrest of Huawei's CFO in Canada

    The arrest of Huawei's CFO in Canada has raised a lot of concern.  I was not clear what the charges are, and there seem to be many conflicting stories about how this situation should be approached by all parties. It seems like one side is trying to undermine the other from doing business outside its borders, but at the same time another country might want to protect its own people against espionage risks that come with using Chinese technology products in sensitive industries.
    The conflict here is between protecting national security and ensuring economic development, but also keeping an eye on new technologies being developed which could potentially disrupt everything we know today when it comes to tech innovation. There may be very different opinions among governments as well as citizens when it comes to this.
    I wanted to know, so I'm talking to Warren Vincent, a global banking expert, to learn the conflict and how it affects future business and investments.

    Tokenize Every Business Transaction? Telos Says We Can

    Creating tokens has become as easy as setting up a website, blog or TikTok account. But what good is this doing business?
    We know about tokens for rewards programs or to keep track of things and we know that we won't need programmers creating currencies for everything. Fintech is going to be huge, but just a tiny part of the things we count in business.
    Enter Telos and an easy way to create smart contracts through their platform. Telos is a blockchain tuned to handle transactions at super fast speed and has the ability to scale beyond any assessment of transactions happening today.
    Douglass Horn and I will talk about the future and how platforms such as TELOS will accelerated the growth of blockchain in the next few years.
    Full discloser, I own a small amount of TLOS and advise companies building on the platform. It's not the only way to add blockchain but the smart contracts make it a current favorite.

    Enabling Transactions When Institutions Don't Want Free Trade With Rob McNealy

    Banks and mainstream payment institutions aren’t exactly very friendly to the notion of free trade when it comes to guns and other industries they consider to be red flag.

TUSC stands for The Universal Settlement Coin, a decentralized, non-ICO cryptocurrency that was launched in 2018. Crypto entrepreneur and personal liberty activist Rob McNealy joins Warren Whitlock on the podcast to share the details of this crypto payment solution and the unique benefits that it offers to gun retailers. They also talk about how crypto entrepreneurs can get mass adoption of crypto products – a long overdue prospect that has the potential to solve pesky problems like what TUSC is doing for the gun industry.
