Blockchain from Hype to Help

Abstract

It is almost impossible to avoid the hype around blockchain technology. In the space of less than two years, what was once the preserve of developers and deep tech entrepreneurs has exploded into the public consciousness. Perception varies wildly. Kate Baucherel, COO of emerging technology software house City Web Consultants, and presenter of BCS’s recent blockchain webinar looks, discusses and diff erentiates between hype and utility.
