| Sumario: | The world is starting to discover Bitcoin. But the term "blockchain", the technology underpinning cryptocurrencies, is still unknown to the general public. However, it's a very simple concept: blockchain is an open-source distributed database using state-of-the-art cryptography that may facilitate collaboration and tracking of all kinds of transactions and interactions. Through a blocks-chain system, it is possible to store and transmit data between computers, while keeping it secure, private, and decentralized -like an extremely safe database that isn't owned by anybody and is owned by everybody at the same time. This simple idea has the potential to completely change processes in numerous important industries, from the financial to the public sector, revolutionizing the world economy and even changing every aspect of society. Blockchain has an amazing disruptive potential over any industry, economy and society: the capacity to create a world where citizens participate in the value that they generate. In the blockchain era, each one of us will stop being a passive receiver, becoming an active participant. That will allow us to craft a much more egalitarian, prosperous society where everybody shares the wealth we produce (in any context, not only the economic one). So far, no other technology has had such a great potential for humanity. |
