Episode 20 | Jay Schulman from RSM on Where to Pay Attention to Blockchain in 2022

For the last episode of 2021, instead of focusing on a single overarching theme, I wanted to unwind a very eventful year and look into what awaits us in 2022 from a broad perspective. To help me in this endeavour, I had the pleasure to speak to Jay Schulman, the charismatic and versatile National Leader for Blockchain and Digital Assets at RSM US. With 20 years’ experience in information security and technology innovation, Jay leads RSM in addressing both enterprise blockchain technology and the adoption of digital assets. In addition Jay sits on the AICPA Working Group for the Accounting and Auditing of Digital Assets, and is a Board Member of the Accounting Blockchain Coalition. In this episode, we will go through; The hot topic of NFTs and new use cases other than digital art; Why DAOs are the future of work; The promise of web3 for the accounting and audit industry; New Career opportunities with Blockchain; Crypto trends to pay attention to in 2022 and much more. This episode is brought to you by AuditChain - the world's first decentralized continuous audit and real time reporting protocol. Traditional audit methodology focuses on “materiality”, not accuracy. We are constrained by time and cannot audit 100% of the transactions, and therefore we perform sampling. AuditChain decentralizes audit and uses an independent assurance methodology that automates auditing tasks, and continuously audits 100% of the transactions. With AuditChain, Chartered Accountants and professionals will write and own Process Control NFTs that automate internal and disclosure controls, where these NFTs pay royalties in return. With more and more automation, accountants will increasingly find themselves becoming redundant. If you are a forward thinking CPA or Chartered Accountant, and want to participate and be in touch with the latest developments from AuditChain in decentralizing the audit profession using blockchain, you should apply for membership by visiting DCARPE Alliance.
