Podcast Rechenzeit - Episode 3
The blockchain - Yesterday's silver bullet?
The blockchain is at the centre of this computing time episode. Blockchain technology has been around for a number of years, but expectations of its widespread use have not yet been fulfilled, yet every year we see the hype surrounding blockchain flare up again. Is there perhaps more to it after all - or is blockchain still just "Yesterday's Silver Bullet"?
We discuss this topic in detail with Dr Michael Merz, who has been intensively involved with blockchain and cryptocurrencies since their emergence. He has also published a book on the subject: "Blockchain im B2B-Einsatz" (link in the show notes).
There were so many interesting things to learn about blockchain and so much to discuss during our exchange that this episode actually turned out to be around 75 minutes long.
