Editing the uneditable Blockchain: Why distributed ledger technology must adapt to an imperfect world
This paper looks at why distributed ledger technologyâapplied to enterprise and permissioned networksâwill need to evolve to adapt to an imperfect world where human error, laws and mischief will require more flexibility. It looks at the mixed blessing of the indelible ledger in light of Europeâs âright to be forgottenâ laws, recent high-profile cybercurrency thefts and the age-old âfat fingerâ errors that have brought exponential harm to financial services.
Banking in a world of programmable assets
The Bitcoin cryptocurrency has been making headlines for several years. But in recent months the focus has widened to the broader potential of the blockchain technology that underpins itâincluding the creation of distributed consensus ledgers (DCLs). Now the focus has shifted again, to the implications blockchain brings for financial assets in general.
Distributed consensus ledgers for payments
The goal of this paper is to guide banks seeking to realize the opportunities presented by DCL, help them see through and beyond the hype and disillusionment and position themselves appropriately, starting now (and avoid becoming part of the hype themselves).
