19 Industries ready to be disrupted by blockchain? (addendum with video)

in #blockchain7 years ago (edited)

The following interesting video points out 19 industries possibly disrupted by blockchain protocols and applications. The video gives a short description on how blockchain can disrupt the specific industry in question and what blockchain startups are already active. Definitely food for thought. I highly recommend their webpage http://futurethinkers.org/industries-blockchain-disrupt/ . On this webpage they have a written explanation of the disruption possibilities of every industry.

They (pre) follow up their video with an interesting radio show about blockchain. The radio show is titled: "Possibilities of the blockchain". This radio show is also from "https://www.futurethinkers.org". It is advertised as an episode for newbie's, but it's also very informative for advanced investors. It starts with the 4 pillars of a decentralized society at 08:15. They then focus on one specific pillar and how blockchain contributes to the establishment of decentralization. FutureThinkers does this by adding real-life examples.
Hear all about it http://futurethinkers.org/blockchain-possibilities/#play

I got into BTC back in 2013 and I'm loving how popular it has become recently! I cannot wait until mass adoption. Check out my BTC price forecasts plz https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@hotsauceislethal/bitcoin-price-forecast-7-21-17

Interesting the first point is obsolete by having an app on my phone. I am my own bank. Like Obama pointed out we have our own Swiss bank account in our pocket, and like Jeff Burwick points out on Dollar Vigilante, we really have more then a Swiss bank account in our pockets, we can send value to anyone, anywhere in the world at any time, from anywhere for pennies. I personally think anyone promoting a bank based blockchain just hasn't grasped the concept of a decentralized economy yet.
