Blockchain expert explains blockchain & distributed ledgers

We invite blockchain expert Val Bercovici, Founder & CEO of ChainKit, on the podcast to explain the basics of distributed ledgers, as well as the biggest distributed ledger – BlockChain. He explains what a distributed ledger is and why you might want one. We then talk about why someone would contribute to such a ledger, meaning why you would volunteer your resources to be part one – a process known as "mining." Then, as a precursor to our next episode, we talk a little bit about the security possibilities of a distributed ledger.
