Most of us may have heard of the terms blockchain and cryptocurrencies. Although these go hand in hand, the underlying technology driving the fintech space is the novel idea of distributed ledger technologies. Without the use of trusted third parties, transactions, data and smart contracts can be created and consumed in an autonomous way. Three types of distributed ledger technology systems exist: permissionless, permissioned and hybrid, and all are currently being explored as possible solutions pertaining to industries such as cross- border transactions, food supply chain management, financial market liquidity, hedging and shareholder staking, to name a few. This webinar will cover an in-depth look of the technology itself followed by some real- world use cases.
