Summary

The buzz: "Today thoughtful people everywhere are trying to understand the implications of a protocol that enables mere mortals to manufacture trust through clever code. This has never happened before" (Don and Alex Tapscott). Just when the switch to digital money threatens the banks' cash-handling function, blockchain technology is attacking their role as a trusted intermediary. This is just the tip of the blockchain iceberg. Blockchain is emerging across other industries and lines of business. How to distinguish wishful hype from concrete cases to re-think business processes of the future? The experts speak. Raimund Gross, SAP: "There are no fast followers in a paradigm shift–only winners and losers" (T. Smith). Dr. Gideon Greenspan, Coin Sciences: "When you come to a fork in the road, take it" (Y. Berra). Kris Hansen, Portag3 Ventures: "We look at the present through a rearview mirror. We march backwards into the future" (M. McLuhan). Join us for Money's Digital Makeover–Part 3.
