THE digital realm is an enabler for the masses.
And this is a scary proposition for the few who hold the reins of power.
Change and disruption have been sweeping through the planet for decades and while some governments and authorities feel intimidated by it, others are a bit more receptive to its positive attributes.
The WED WEB CHAT — The Crypto World features the Chief Executive and Chief Strategic Advisor of Technicorum Holdings, whose business model covers various aspects of the digital realm.
The discussion covered the benefits of blockchain technology, the reasons for the proliferation of Crypto coins, the benefits of non-fungible tokens (NFTS) in authenticating educational qualifications, property deeds, and personal identity, and the nervousness of those in authority.
As an inclusive digital offering there are several ways that blockchain, NFTS and cryptocurrencies can help to enable populations to achieve more, instead of being subjected to the layers of bureaucracy that would enable governments to profit and control the eco-system.
Selected highlights from the discussion are featured below. You can watch the full discussion at the bottom of the article.
The Many Uses Of NFTs
While non-fungible tokens (NFTS) may sound like something for the art fraternity to enjoy, it has wider real-world applications. It can be used to authenticate educational certificates, property deeds, and even an individual’s identity.
The Real Threat Of Crypto
Systems in power will want to hang on to their advantage. Anything that unsettles the status quo will be viewed with cautious disdain, sometimes aggressively so.
But eventually, the benefits of the system will affect the eventual outcome.
Change For The Better
El Salvador is the first country to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender. This will allow it to make use of real data to understand its economy, rather than relying on theories.
Digitalisation empowers more people to fulfil their ambitions.
The Bitcoin Sparkle
Why is Bitcoin’s value way ahead of the other cryptocurrencies?
It has to do with demand and supply, while other coins like Ethereum and Dogecoin have also risen in value. Meanwhile, trust is keeping some traditional currencies in play.
Accessing Blockchain
You don’t need crazy tech skills to access blockchain and take advantage of what it has to offer.
