Podcast 7 Explaining blockchain

from Randall van Poelvoorde on Tech & Robots · host Randall van Poelvoorde

Send a textWhat I want to discuss with you today is blockchains.Even though this is not a new technology anymore, I notice that many people are familiar with the term but have no idea what it actually is. Let's go back to the very first accounting lessons. Every time two parties engage in a transaction, it needs to be documented and recorded. As the amounts or the stakes get larger, the trust that parties have in each other becomes very important. If I sell my house to you, I want to be sure that you have the money, and you want to be sure that I am the owner of the house. We also want to properly record the transfer of ownership and ensure a smooth payment. Therefore, we engage various intermediaries, such as real estate agents, banks, and notaries. This works fine but is not the cheapest and fastest way. Could we invent something that allows us to trust each other without the intervention of all these expensive middlemen? This is where blockchain technology comes in.Ik nodig je van harte uit om regelmatig naar mijn podcast te luisteren. We zullen het hebben over fascinerende technologieën en uitvindingen. We bespreken de problemen en de kansen. We zullen ons samen afvragen hoe de wereld eruit zou kunnen zien. Ik beloof je dat het een spannende, leuke en optimistische reis zal worden. Een reis vol robots, kunstmatige intelligentie, zelfrijdende auto's en duurzame energie. Een reis vol vragen en antwoorden. Een reis vol verwondering en verbazing. Maar ook een reis met veel herkenning. Ik ga deze afleveringen met groot plezier maken en kijk ernaar uit om jouw reacties te horen. Ik zou het zeer waarderen als je je abonneert op deze show!
