regulations to encourage development
and safety
Blockchains designed to provide secure, free & decentralized access to the internet
that the user has ultimate control over. Allowing use of the internet for not only
communication and information but also for exchange purposes, cutting out
intermediaries (like banks).

designed to be fail proof and hack proof.
Where intermediaries are cut out, costs to operate and access to assets and
resources expands.
