Brandon Bryant, software developer at HandCash, joins CoinGeek’s Patrick Thompson in this episode of "More Than Money", where they discuss topics ranging from micropayments and Bitcoin adoption to the BSV price, and even games.
“I’ve been interested in Bitcoin since 2016 and I based my entire career in this space straight out of college. I’ve also been an investor all these years,”Bryant said. “The coolest and most powerful aspect of Bitcoin is it enables sending money over the internet with just a few lines of code.”
Micropayments play an especially pivotal role in developing countries. These make up approximately 70% of the global population remarkably.
“The first thing that will happen is creators will create micro downloadable content (DLC) and skins of users’ favorite players. They no longer need to purchase a huge bundle of content and can instead buy individual items. That will make a huge difference and it will open up a huge creative economy,” Bryant said.
Remittance payment (e.g., international money transfers) is another use case, one that Bryant worked in the past. Although the app that made remittance payments was “really cool,” it never took hold because of a lack of market demand.
As this applies to the gaming community, Bryant pointed out that games on BSV enterprise blockchain like Duro Dogs are great but require time to build a high number of users.
He predicts that the thousands of blockchains in existence today will ultimately combine into one.
“One blockchain could be successful with another blockchain in the second place. People from the second-place network will need to gradually move towards the winning network. It’s not like a fiat currency where I’m tied to USD because I live in the U.S. It is a digital currency, so if the BSV economy is growing and winning, other people need to join it, and vice versa,” he noted.
