Demystifying Crypto & Web3: A Technical Journey Through 15 Years of Innovation
#1about 3 minutes
Why distributed ledger technology matters for business
Distributed ledgers provide tamper-proof data, verifiable digital ownership, and programmable value transfer, replacing institutional trust with protocol-enforced guarantees.
#2about 5 minutes
Understanding consensus algorithms and data structures
Distributed ledgers rely on consensus algorithms like Proof of Work or Proof of Stake and data structures like blockchains or graphs to achieve agreement and store state.
#3about 2 minutes
The dual role of network tokens in Web3
Native tokens function as both network fuel for operations and a security mechanism through staking, creating a self-sustaining economic model for decentralized systems.
#4about 4 minutes
Automating business logic with smart contracts
Smart contracts are self-executing programs on a blockchain that automate agreements and value exchange, with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) being the standard development environment.
#5about 4 minutes
Enhancing privacy with zero-knowledge proofs
Zero-knowledge proofs, such as zk-SNARKs and zk-STARKs, enable verification of information without revealing the underlying private data, solving the trade-off between privacy and auditability.
#6about 3 minutes
The future of assets with tokenization and AI
Tokenization brings real-world assets onto the blockchain for improved liquidity and traceability, while AI can leverage these networks for value exchange and verifiable data provenance.
#7about 3 minutes
Exploring real-world applications of distributed ledgers
Companies are applying distributed ledger technology for verifiable compute, supply chain tracking, auditable drone operations, and fan engagement in sports leagues.
