“IT IS TRUE THAT THE PREVIOUS INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTIONS HAVE PASSED US BY. THIS TIME, I HOPE THE FOURTH INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION DRIVEN BY DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION WILL NOT LEAVE AFRICA BEHIND.”

@scottalanmiller that didn't take long
Yeah, it's a huge opportunity for smaller governments to make big gains against the big ones. It's hard for the US or EU to get into blockchain, but easy for Kenya or Ecuador (who doesn't even have a currency of their own till this!)

Right, and we all know first is everything in crypto... Look at bitcoin that no longer has any tech value.

I saw a middle eastern country is doing this with cars as well. Service history will be included as part of blockchain.

Blockchain has the potential to add an unprecedented level transparency to everything. I'd love to see an application that turns the ownership of information on its head. For example I have no control over my medical records. They're not really mine. They're a medical provider's records about me. If I were able to encrypt and store my <insert type> of records where I was the one determining who had access, to what, and for how long it would be amazing. There are potential weaknesses, but no more or worse ones than we have now with companies like Equifax handing out personal and financial information willy-nilly.

None of those stories about blockchain tracking for real items are relevant to the scam of cryptocurrency.

Keep thinking that about crypto currency.

There are cryptocurrency scams and I'm guessing we're going to see an ebbing to the value of BTC at some point in the near future. However, this is never going away. It may not ever intersect with your life directly, but already banks are developing internal blockchains for handling transactions. This genie is not going back in the bottle.

No scam in cryptocurrency more than there is with any form of money. Actually, with block chain, crypto becomes the least scam of any currency type.

Sure, there are scam coins but, if you do your research you wont get scammed. There are coins out there that dont even have a website. Yet people invest in them.
Name an industry that doesn't have any scams....
I'll wait.

Even some traditional government backed currencies are scams.

Even more so than tittycoin or useless ethereum token. At least you have an option to buy or not.

@mlnews
I saw that.
Not sure how I feel about all ads, but the ICO ads are definitely annoying. -
I've not seen one. But I'm very good at ignoring ads.
