Bitcoin Q&A: Why permissioned blockchains fail

Do private, permissioned blockchains make sense or have value? What interesting features will they lack? What consensus issues will they have? Which permissioned blockchain projects have failed so far?

These questions are from the July monthly Patreon session, which took place on July 28th 2018 respectively. If you want early-access to talks and a chance to participate in the monthly live Q&As with Andreas, become a patron: https://www.patreon.com/aantonop
