Summary

In April 2025, Giesecke+Devrient (G+D) hosted the inaugural Blockchain Thinkers event in collaboration with the TUM Blockchain Club, European Women Payments Network, and Frankfurt School Blockchain Center. In this podcast, our panel explores how blockchain-native analytics can help detect anomalies and flag suspicious activity faster, making fraud prevention even more effective than in traditional finance. By shifting the focus from technology to other essential ingredients – such as governance, user protection, and collaboration – blockchain can become a pillar of trust in finance, rather than a point of weakness.
