Understanding The Coming Security Token Tsunami

Description:

Most people will agree that the killer application of blockchain technology is finance, but while Bitcoin continues to struggle to gain mainstream adoption as a currency, the trillion-dollar opportunity that is barreling down on us, whether we like it or not, is tokenized securities. We got a preview of this with the ICO craze of 2017/2018 that ended with the ensuing regulatory clampdown worldwide. However, the forces the drive capitalist economies have now seen the ease with with liquidity can be found using blockchain, and there is no putting that genie back in the bottle. Securities like stocks and bonds are coming to the blockchain en masse. This talk will prepare you to understand how and why it's going to happen, and how you can prepare.
