Down the Rabbit Hole Livecast: “How can blockchain help deal with the effects of the novel coronavirus globally both now and in the future?” (In association with Fractonium and the Blockchain Sydney Meetup group)

We already know how devastating the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is as it silently weaves its deadly path into the very hearts of societies across the globe. It is exposing shortcomings of national health systems and so much more that we take for granted. It causes us all to question “why?”

In tandem with the devastating effects upon global health, the virus is taking its toll on the global economy causing the largest falls in stock market history. In this Livecast we bring back five friends, all deeply experienced blockchain professionals, who had impromptu, and sometimes heated discussions, on Libra and Central Bank Digital Currencies six months ago – to make sense of it all…

And to ask “how can blockchain help globally both now and in the future”; and with some quarters talking of financial Armageddon has Bitcoin’s day finally arrived?
