<div class="">Dear all,<br class="">
<br class="">
despite previous info, I’d like to organise a cyber reading group session next week on Tuesday Dec. 4th (for convenience it would start at 11.30)<br class="">
<br class="">
I will present an application for the Department of International Trade I’ve been worked on.
<br class="">
<br class="">
Besides the talk (which will be short), I’d like to trigger a structured discussion on blockchain that goes beyond ‘enthusiastic’ v ‘apathetic’ (say, Stefano v Tom? :-))
<br class="">
<br class="">
As such, I’d suggest you could try to make your pros / cons. thoughts according to the following (but not limited to) questions<br class="">
<br class="">
1. Is blockchain an innovative technology? why so? (could you compare it with other trends in the past?)<br class="">
<br class="">
2. Is there an application scenario 'fitting for purpose’ for blockchain? <br class="">
<br class="">
3. would blockchain pose new threats? would mitigate any?<br class="">
<br class="">
4. Is blockchain answering a technical/commercial/societal need? <br class="">
<br class="">
5. is there any blockchain research challenges to address?<br class="">
<br class="">
Cheers, <br class="">
Andrea<br class="">
