Editor's Notes

  1. You’ve registered your land with the government. The paper copy of your registration was then filed, somewhere. But the earthquake in 2010 destroyed all the municipal buildings where they were stored. Or the registration was stored in an outdated database and the file gets erased. Now you don't have proof that you're a landowner.
  2. In case of an ICO, tokens are generated and a price is set on those tokens. The concept works on the theory that on blockchain you can transact without the need of a central authority such as a central bank. The newly created tokens can then be exchanged with existing popular cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin and ethereum or even with a fiat currency like dollar or rupee.
