Hedera’s Leemon Baird Bets Big on Hashgraph Tech—Can It Outmaneuver Blockchain Giants?
Hedera co-founder Leemon Baird isn’t just tweaking blockchain—he’s gutting it. The hashgraph pioneer claims his DLT architecture cuts latency, bypasses miners, and handles 10,000+ TPS. But in a market where ’decentralized’ often means ’VC-funded cartel,’ can HBAR survive the crypto casino?
Baird’s latest play? Baking AI into Hedera’s consensus layer—because nothing says ’trustless’ like machine learning black boxes. Wall Street’s already salivating over the compliance hooks. Meanwhile, Ethereum maxis are sharpening their pitchforks.
One thing’s clear: If hashgraph delivers on its speed promises without becoming another ’enterprise blockchain’ zombie, it might just disrupt the disruptors. Or get acquired by BlackRock.
