Blockchain - Disruptive Service or Just Another Buzz Word? ========================================================== By now you've probably hear of BitCoin, the famous crypto-currency. Most people are aware the critical foundational technology supporting BitCoin is called blockchain, which is a distributed record of digital events. Marc Andreesen, a prominent U.S. venture capitalist has called blockchain's distributed consensus model as the most important invention since the Internet itself.
But how does BitCoin relate to blockchain and why are global banks investigating the use of blockchain in their applications? What problem does blockchain solve, what technologies does it use, why should you care? What is the role of Smart Contract in the Blockchain? Why are a variety of industry sectors interested in this mechanism?
John will provide valuable information on blockchain, related technologies and implementations for Java developers to make up your own mind. Explanations of how it works, who's using it today, who might be interested in the coming months/years and why what it may mean to you.
