“Competition is always good. I believe in democratization and meritocracy. There is room to collaborate.”Micali and Hall also discussed the role of institutions and regulation. Micali stated that “Good regulations make for better markets” and asserted that large institutions are slowly understanding that cryptocurrency can be “a much more secure way to transact.”When asked about Algorand’s future, Micali said to expect more tech and increased scalability.
