Will Bitcoin and the Block Chain Change the Way we Live and Work?

About this episode

The block chain is the Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) that underlies the successful Bitcoin cybercurrency.

What is it, how does it work, and why does a Government report say that DLTs have the potential to be radically disruptive to financial services, healthcare, real estate, public services and much more?
