Blockchain technology. Can it be a solution to privacy risks inherent in traditional IT? How is it different from cryptocurrency? What can it do to allow both individuals and organizations to limit and protect personal information exchanged in daily life?

Explore these questions in Episode 149, with Zenobia Godschalk, head of communications for Swirlds Labs (https://swirldslabs.com).

Hear how public ledgers for decentralized economies are changing our digital existence and can be a means of protecting personal privacy without disrupting our digital world.
