The Blockchain Futures Lab at Institute for the Future is a research initiative and a community for identifying the opportunities and limits of blockchain technologies as well as their social, economic, and political impacts on individuals, organizations, and communities over the coming decades. The program brings together the leading developers of blockchain tools and applications with organizations that seek to understand the implications of this highly disruptive technology—and perhaps also to create parts of the new ecosystem of infrastructures and markets that it will drive.

No central authority
Blockchain has been hailed by admirers as holding the revolutionary promise that the internet did two decades ago. Business figures from Microsoft’s Bill Gates to Richard Branson, the founder of the Virgin Group, have extolled its potential; on a trade mission to Asia in August, David Cameron, the UK prime minister, included a blockchain expert among his entourage.

BTC’s cutting edge patent pending election system process uses the blockchain for an extra level of security not found in any other voting solution. Because blockchain-based records are time-stamped and signed, post-election fraud is rendered virtually impossible. The voting process begins with tried and true paper ballots. This removes any voter confusion about how to properly vote and ensures that from the onset there is an indisputable audit trail, as physical paper ballots remain the ultimate document of record.

If the blockchain frenzy and the hype surrounding it is anything to go by, blockchain is set to revolutionise everything from the way in which we make payments to the way in which we drink beer. I may have made that last bit up – but you get the idea that in and amongst the buzz there are some pretty wild predictions being made! So in this post, i thought it would be useful to take a step back from the hype and understand “what is blockchain?” If you keep coming back to this fundamental question, i think it can help you navigate and understand what use cases are feasible and which ones are not. Through these 6 awesome infographics we get a good understanding of what blockchain is: Learn more / En savoir plus / Mehr erfahren: http://www.scoop.it/t/luxembourg-europe/?tag=Blockchain http://www.scoop.it/t/luxembourg-europe/?tag=Bitcoin http://www.scoop.it/t/21st-century-learning-and-teaching/?tag=blockchain

Pour les néophytes, cette technologie de stockage et de transmissions d’informations totalement décentralisée et sans organe de contrôle permet de certifier des échanges, des prix, des transactions ou encore des titres de propriété et des procédures, le tout de manière instantanée, infalsifiable et à faible coût. Comme l’écrit le mathématicien Jean-Paul Delahaye cité sur le site Blockchain France, il faut s’imaginer «un très grand cahier, que tout le monde peut lire librement et gratuitement, sur lequel tout le monde peut écrire, mais qui est impossible à effacer et indestructible.» Learn more / En savoir plus / Mehr erfahren: http://www.scoop.it/t/luxembourg-europe/?tag=Blockchain http://www.scoop.it/t/21st-century-learning-and-teaching/?tag=blockchain

When you hear the word blockchain does it make your head spin? Wall Street analysts and fintech experts claim it could make traditional banking obsolete; Airbnb just acquired a team of blockchain experts; and the country of Estonia will use it to secure a million patient health records.
But what exactly is blockchain, and what are its implications for higher education?
Originally created as the underlying database for bitcoin (the peer-to-peer digital asset and payment system), blockchain’s technology is now being seen as valuable and purposeful beyond the financial sector. The advantages blockchain provides to store information on a secure, permanent, historical ledger that can be both public and private will change how edtech applications approach student data.

Discussions of blockchain often begin with bitcoin, the cryptocurrency that gained notoriety as much for its novelty as for the volatility of its valuation. In a fog of media reports driven by bitcoin’s associations with dubious use cases,1 the far-reaching potential of blockchain—the technology underpinning bitcoin—remained largely obscured. Yet, that is changing. Organizations throughout the public and private sectors have begun exploring ways that blockchain might profoundly transform some of their most basic operations, from the way they execute contracts and carry out transactions to the ways they engage customers and more.
