Manage episode 207136325 series 1314345
You have heard about Bitcoin, you have heard about Blockchain.
And you probably have heard about Ethereum - one of the other major cryptocurrencies and development platforms.
One of the biggest challenges is the lack of qualified resources to develop and design solutions. Designing in the form of how to use a Blockchain application best, what are use cases?
That's why ConsenSys was founded. And Akshi Federici, the Executive Director, Strategic Projects and ConsenSys Academy Global Lead, is on the show.
A great conversation with lots of insights into Blockchain and Ethereum.
Enjoy!
