Summary

“The banking system, while people don’t like to necessarily say this,” says Rik Willard, “is a rigged game, in many cases. If you have money: great. If you don’t have money, it’s the worst possible scenario.”
Willard is the founder and managing director of Agentic Group. Agentic is a sustainability platform for the BlockChain ecosystem—a major player. Rik’s position made him a key interviewee in the forthcoming documentary, “The Blockchain and Us,” which reckons with the impact the BlockChain is having on society.
