MindTheSec Blockchain Presentation - Rafael Sarres de Almeida
Blockchain is changing the way we interact and trust each other, starting with our money. In this talk I present the potential of the technology and warn about some known pitfalls. I work with some analogies for an easier understanding of this complex new computational paradigm and play with the "status quo".
How blockchain technology is affecting humanity
Blockchain technology first emerged on the global stage around 10 years ago as a way to offer an alternative to the traditional banking apparatus. In the 10 years that blockchain technology has evolved constantly, it has also had a profound impact on almost all spheres of human activity.
All About Blockchain
Jared Carmel's presentation about the growth of blockchain software and its promise to change the world, influencing banking and other sectors.
A DECENTRALIZED FUTURE WITH BLOCKCHAIN AND INTERNET OF THINGS
Blockchain technologies allow for the creation of shared digital ledgers that can record transactions and track assets in a verifiable and permanent way. The Linux Foundation is launching the Hyperledger project to support the development of blockchain technology in a way that is open source and collaborative. The project aims to enable organizations across industries to adopt blockchain at a faster pace than any individual company could achieve alone.

Towards a blockchain-powered economy
This is the presentation I delivered for the Blockchain and Cryptocurrency Summit held last 23 May 2018 in Baguio City, Philippines.
Blockchain revolution
This document discusses the potential of blockchain technology to revolutionize various industries by creating a decentralized internet of value. It describes how blockchain uses distributed ledgers and cryptography to allow for trustless and transparent transactions without middlemen. Examples are given of how blockchain could transform industries like transportation (Uber), healthcare (electronic medical records), insurance (peer-to-peer models), and more. Challenges around scalability and regulation are also mentioned. The document promotes blockchain as a means to fully democratize the internet through decentralized applications, smart contracts, and new models of value exchange and autonomous organizations.
Bitcoin
Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency that uses cryptography to regulate the generation of currency units and verify fund transfers without a central bank. It was first created in 2009 as the first cryptocurrency. Bitcoins are produced by people running computer programs that solve mathematical problems and are exchanged electronically without central control. While current currencies rely on centralized authorities like banks, bitcoin aims to decentralize control of money and allow peer-to-peer transactions over the internet.
Harnessing the power of blockchain for esports
This document discusses how blockchain can power the esports ecosystem in a decentralized manner. It begins with an overview of blockchain and how it enables a peer-to-peer value exchange system without middlemen. It then discusses how smart contracts on platforms like Ethereum allow decentralized applications to be built. The document argues that blockchain is poised to transform esports by enabling new models for tournaments, games, player contracts, and monetization through cryptocurrency tokens, bringing transparency and rewarding fans.
iAngels Decodes Blockchain and Cryptocurrencies
Blockchain enables the exchange of value in real-time for free through a shared digital ledger. It works by automatically verifying rules and executing agreed terms through smart contracts. This transitions processes from opaque to transparent and efficient by disintermediating intermediaries, establishing audit trails, and reducing costs. Cryptocurrencies have surpassed early VC funding for blockchain startups. While adoption is still low, there is significant upside potential as anything could exchange value anywhere through blockchain in 5-10 years. Crypto assets provide diversification as they have low correlation to traditional assets and higher returns.
Why is blockchain on the high seas
Technology plays a vital role in the evolution of the world. Trading has been the part of global business and economies across the globe. From the ancient time till trade, trading plays a crucial role in establishing the growth of the nation and its economy.

Blockchain & crypto
Blockchain is a distributed digital ledger composed of blocks that record transactions in a verifiable and permanent way. Each block contains a cryptographic hash of the previous block, linking the blocks together in a chain. This ensures that data in the blockchain cannot be tampered with or altered once recorded. Bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency that uses blockchain technology to operate as a peer-to-peer electronic cash system without the need for centralized control. While it provides advantages like freedom in payments and transparency, it also faces challenges like volatility due to lack of government backing and risk of bans or other currencies becoming more popular. Blockchain has many potential applications beyond cryptocurrency, including more efficient and secure real estate transactions, voting systems, IoT device
Blockchain: Largest Technology Opportunity Since the Internet
Blockchain is an efficient decentralized transfer of digital transactions via a network, similar to how the Internet allows for the efficient decentralized transfer of digital information. Blockchain uses a distributed database of transactions split into blocks that are validated by the entire network and added to a chain of prior transactions. It provides numerous benefits like lower costs, faster transactions, empowered users, and security. While blockchain technology has been around since 2008 with Bitcoin, it is now gaining widespread attention and investment as its opportunities seem endless across industries like finance, healthcare, voting, and more. Blockchain represents one of the largest technology opportunities since the Internet.

Prashant saxena - Blockchain for your business
Blockchain has the potential to revolutionize commerce and lower uncertainty without traditional institutions like banks or governments. It provides a distributed ledger that records transactions across a peer-to-peer network using cryptographic trust mechanisms. This allows online transactions to occur more easily and cheaply without external oversight. Blockchain resolves issues like identity management, asset tracking, and reneging on deals. Smart contracts automate transactions through programmable clauses. Blockchain can enhance supply chain security and efficiency. It also enables decentralized financial transactions without fees or chargebacks through cryptocurrencies. Governments are also exploring blockchain applications. While opponents cite issues like energy use and job disruption, businesses should start small pilots and hire blockchain talent to explore opportunities.
Blockchain, Ledgers, and the Economy
This document discusses how blockchain technology can help globalize the approximately 5 billion people who currently lack access to formal financial and economic systems. It argues that blockchain, combined with the widespread adoption of mobile phones, presents an opportunity to connect these unbanked individuals by allowing them to formally record ownership of assets on distributed ledgers. This could enable them to leverage their holdings to engage in entrepreneurship, access credit, and participate more fully in their local economies and civic processes. By bringing previously informal assets onto legal, formal ledgers, blockchain may help reduce global problems like terrorism that arise when large populations feel alienated from the rule of law.
Designing a mobile service as a facilitator for capturing local trade data
Designing a mobile service as a facilitator for capturing local trade dataUniversity of Central Lancashire
This document discusses the design of a mobile service to facilitate local bartering and trade. The service would allow users to register trades, including information on items, value, location and time. It would incorporate security features like watermarks and create a transparent register of trade data and connections between users. The proposed system would have cross-platform compatibility and support nomadic users involved in goods and services. It would feature a modular architecture with user interface, business logic, data access and service agent layers. The vision is for the service to function as a "social network" revealing the flow of money through bartering at a local level.Smart Contract Development in Real Estate Industry

From Bitcoin to Blockchain: Industry Review April 2017 from OLMA NEXT Ltd
When the Bitcoin cryptocurrency was released in 2009, its underpinning, the blockchain distributed ledger system was the real technological breakthrough, a formulation that promises to change the basis of all types of transactions globally.
Blockchain technology has paved the way for an Internet of Transactions. Blockchain technology has already proved its worth in such areas as means of payment, interbank exchanges and international remittances. Touted as the next digital revolution, blockchain technology has the potential to transform traditional industries and alter society through disintermediation of trade. Any situation that involves an intermediary that is expensive or fallible represents an opportunity to create a blockchain application case. No industry is immune to the blockchain’s disruption potential.
In 2017, the blockchain technology is at an inflection point. The industry is in a state of transition and must move to Blockchain 2.0, which means the adoption of more sophisticated applications, such as micro-payments and smart contracts. Having outgrown its original bitcoin community, the majority of blockchain applications have yet to pass beyond the prototype stage to make blockchain technology the greatest restructuring technology of the next decade.
The blockchain
CryptoFinance offers algorithmic security and reduces the need for human involvement and compliance, resulting in cost reduction and faster transactions. Blockchain technologies like Bitcoin underpin the CryptoFinance ecosystem, while off-blockchain technologies like Monetas and Lightning enable fast and cheap private transactions ideal for retail and micropayments. Blockchains are best for decentralized consensus and uncensorable public records, while off-blockchain systems complement them for efficient private transactions. Together, they offer the best of both worlds by securely storing assets on-chain and trading them efficiently off-chain.

CAKE: Sharing Slices of Confidential Data on Blockchain
Presented at the CAiSE 2024 Forum, Intelligent Information Systems, June 6th, Limassol, Cyprus.
Synopsis: Cooperative information systems typically involve various entities in a collaborative process within a distributed environment. Blockchain technology offers a mechanism for automating such processes, even when only partial trust exists among participants. The data stored on the blockchain is replicated across all nodes in the network, ensuring accessibility to all participants. While this aspect facilitates traceability, integrity, and persistence, it poses challenges for adopting public blockchains in enterprise settings due to confidentiality issues. In this paper, we present a software tool named Control Access via Key Encryption (CAKE), designed to ensure data confidentiality in scenarios involving public blockchains. After outlining its core components and functionalities, we showcase the application of CAKE in the context of a real-world cyber-security project within the logistics domain.
