Quando si parla di temi come innovazione e digital transformation si fa spesso l’errore, più o meno volontario, di dare all’apparenza un peso molto maggiore rispetto alla sostanza. Questo è particolarmente vero per quanto riguarda blockchain, dove quasi sempre l’hype prevale sulla realtà. In questo contesto, l’università svolge un ruolo fondamentale nel contribuire a determinare quale è il reale valore aggiunto apportato da una tecnologia del genere. Leonardo De Rossi e Nico Abbatemarco, ricercatori di Information System presso SDA Bocconi, proveranno a fare luce su questo mondo raccontando l’esperienza su Blockchain del DEVO (Digital Enterprise Value Organization) Lab, il laboratorio di ricerca di SDA Bocconi impegnato nell’analisi della trasformazione digitale delle imprese, con particolare enfasi sugli impatti organizzativi ed economici dell’adozione di nuove tecnologie.
Lecture 2 for the MIT MediaLab Future Commerce course, delivered in Boston, MA on Sept. 20, 2016. In this talk, I discuss the Future of Money and how new technology like digital currencies and P2P finance innovations like bitcoin are going to change the very nature of money. We explore why money exists, the role it plays in our society, and how it shapes the way we interact with marketplace, markets, and financial infrastructure. We then outline opportunities to disrupt money itself with bitcoin and blockchain technology, and how entrepreneurs in the DCG portfolio are slowly changing the Future of Money.

Technological advancements have appropriated the planet, and therefore the year 2022 has witnessed advances that might have otherwise taken years to progress. The pandemic may have taken a toll on our everyday lifestyle, but it's definitely fueled tech and innovation. a bit like the pandemic has given a push to technological advancements, digital currency trading is not any exception.

Blockchain Introduction - Canada Nov 2017.pptxAntony Welfare
Back in 2017 I joined the world of #Blockchain and presented my first ever Blockchain presentation on 14th November 2017 at a Tech meetup in Penticton, BC (Canada)
A few key highlights:
* The fundamentals of Blockchain technology have not changed (Trust, Transparency, Security, Quality/Certainty, Reduced costs)
* We were talking about Web 3.0 back in 2017 😉
* People still miss define Blockchain
* Janet Yellen and Christine Lagarde were commenting on Blockchain back in 2017
* Checkout the Dapps section – I was ahead of my time there!
* And the last three slides on the Market cap and increases – I was excited to tell people the market cap was $200bn, BTC was $8,000 and ETH was nearly $400 ……… Ahhh the good old days 😉
And finally – my “leaders comment” back in 2017 still stands “Blockchain is the next disruptive technology to transform the lives of our customers and our business operations”
What a journey so far…and guess what…its only just begun 👍👍👍

About Blockchain-REAL: Blockchain means revolution: What does blockchain technology - the operating system behind Bitcoin & Co, so to speak - for businesses and the real estate industry? The speculation hype around the cryptocurrencies obscures the view of a truly groundbreaking technology that is slowly but surely turning some things upside down. See what Blockchain can do on a day and decide for yourself how to use this technology.
Cryptocurrency is the digital assets that can be circulate even without any need for a central monetary authority like a Bank, Government, or any other agency. The main reason is that Cryptocurrencies are create using and invest in Blockchain-based cryptographic techniques. These enable people to trade, buy and sell crypto .

What is the uniqueness of cryptocurrency? Cryptocurrency is the most talked about topic in today’s world. Hence, you might be familiar with the term by now. However, there is a significant difference between hearing a term being discussed everywhere around you and getting to know the same.
https://itphobia.com/study-the-uniqueness-of-cryptocurrency/
Technology has added proficiency and top-notch amenities to day-by-day life. These comforts incorporate the new digital attributes computer experts have figured out how to apply in various industries such as information security. The digital notion of these new norms of currencies adds a few advantages that appeal to its users and have prompted their expanding notoriety. While anyone can quickly get involved with the energy and possibly rewarding nature of cryptocurrencies, it’s essential to understand how they impact the information security industry and how cryptocurrency security can be achieved.
Imagine being able to send any amount of money to anyone anywhere in the world at any time without the possibility of funds being frozen, seized, confiscated, or impeded in any way all for a tiny or no cost. That is Bitcoin.
Bitcoin has opened the monetary Pandora’s Box. Since Bitcoin slithered out of the primordial monetary ooze in 2009 the Bitcoin economy has been growing, dying, regenerating, evolving, metastasizing, and developing at an extremely rapid pace. One thing is for sure: Bitcoin has not disappeared.
This decentralized peer-to-peer irreversible non-freezable crypto-currency, the ultimate ‘offshore bank account’ or last plane account, and the surrounding services now offer tremendous utility to hundreds of thousands of people on a daily basis.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

to regulate the generation of units of currency and verify
the transfer of funds, operating independently of a central
bank.

26. IRS RULES ON CRYPTOCURRENCY
On March 25, 2014, the United States Internal Revenue
Service (IRS) ruled that bitcoin will be treated as property
for tax purposes as opposed to currency. This means bitcoin
will be subject to capital gains tax.
28. That’s Why We are Meeting Today!
We want to explore the opportunities, risks,
rewards and see if we can gain specialized
knowledge and profit for it.
29. RISKS: CRYPTOCURRENCIES
Hugely speculative investment.
There are a host of vulnerabilities.
Hackers have gained unauthorized access
to digital wallets and cryptocurrency
exchanges.
30. HIGH-LEVEL RISK MITIGATION PLAN
● Knowing good cryptocurrencies from bad ones
● Knowing what cryptocurrencies are solidly
backed by good marketplace practices
● Knowing what exchanges are worth exploring
● Understanding technical challenges in mining
the target coins to understand supply and
demand economics
31. THREATS
● Coin flooding the marketplace will decrease value
● Exchange hacks and theft of coin
● World regulatory bodies may rule for/against a crypto
● Mining hardware made in China has backdoors
● Lack of understanding by general public - fear!
33. 1 BITCOIN = ~ 215 KWh
One Bitcoin transaction uses approx. as much energy as your
home in a week
An average American household consumes ~900 KWh per
month, each Bitcoin represents enough energy to run a
comfortable house, and everything in it, for nearly a week.
34. SOME PERSONAL THOUGHTS
As a technologist with 25+ years of professional experience,
I feel that not learning all there is to learn about
blockchain tech will be end of my handle on tech. So this is
not an optional pass-time to buy/cell a few
cryptocurrencies.
The cryptocurrencies just add more interest “blocks” to this
as there is also a reasonable chance of making some serious
money!
35. SOME PERSONAL THOUGHTS
Blockchain allows us to create what has been nearly
impossible in the IT world: create permanent unalterable
yet publicly verifiable information or records.
For example, the grades stored in a school’s mainframe could
have been and has been altered by someone somewhere without
a trace.
Blockchain tech will put an end to such a theft and reduce
the distrust we currently have in tech.
36. SOME PERSONAL THOUGHTS
It is said that double-entry bookkeeping is one of the
world’s great intellectual breakthroughs — modern
accounting. It enables merchants, entrepreneurs and their
investors to keep track of every penny they received or
spent.
Perhaps, blockchain is the next evolution in modern,
decentralized, transparent bookkeeping that will change how
we account for everything we “value” in time and material.
