An Introduction to Blockchain Technology
This talk will provide an introduction to blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT). In 2009, Bitcoin was launched as a peer-to-peer electronic cash. In 2015, programmable blockchain/DLT infrastructure projects such as Ethereum, Hyperledger, and R3 Corda were launched. Over the last decade, blockchain/DLT field has evolved to encompass a collection of novel distributed computer network architectures implemented using consensus protocols and data structures. This talk will provide an overview of blockchain applications in startups, enterprises, and government services. Further, this talk will highlight various novel emerging use cases such as Decentralized Finance (DeFi), Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs), Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs), Play-to-Earn (P2E) games, metaverse, and decentralized internet.
