About this episode
Evan Kuo and Manny Rincon-Cruz, the visionary minds behind Ampleforth, join Dustin Plantholt on Bitcoin.com Interviews to discuss how Bitcoin’s monetary principles inspired the creation of algorithmic stable assets designed for the decentralized economy.
Ampleforth (AMPL) is a digital asset engineered to maintain purchasing power by automatically adjusting its supply — offering an alternative to traditional stablecoins while preserving Bitcoin’s ethos of decentralization and scarcity. Evan and Manny share how Ampleforth’s adaptive supply mechanism bridges the gap between fixed-supply assets like Bitcoin and elastic monetary systems built for DeFi and Web3.

• How Ampleforth’s elastic supply model compares to Bitcoin’s fixed scarcity
• The evolution of decentralized money and its role in Web3 finance
• How algorithmic assets complement Bitcoin in the DeFi ecosystem
• Insights on price stability, supply elasticity, and long-term adoption
• The philosophy behind building transparent, censorship-resistant money
