MEET THE SPEAKER:

MARTA PIEKARSKA

DIRECTOR OF ECOSYSTEM HYPERLEDGER

AT THE FRONTLINE OF THE BLOCKCHAIN REVOLUTION Now that the “blockchain everything” hype has passed, it’s down to organisations like Hyperledger to unify enterprise IT and delimit what actually belongs within blockchain’s borders. Marta Piekarska, Hyperledger’s director of ecosystem, traces the development of blockchain technology and the progress made so far.

About 10 years ago, Satoshi Nakamoto proved that Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT), could be used in the space of cryptocurrencies if combined with a strong consensus mechanism and public availability.

However, as time passed, more and more enterprises- from supply chain to humanitarian aid- have expressed interest in applying this concept to their fields.

CHAIN REACTION When blockchain hype was at its highest, many forgot that a blockchain solution is not required most of the time. Companies wanted it because it was the new and shiny thing and because they believed their competitors had it. There is still a lot of FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) going on.

Just because a lot of projects have failed to deliver tangible results, it doesn’t mean that blockchain is useless. Actually, it is a brilliant way of maintaining a reliable record of events, building trust into systems where traditionally we need to rely on third parties, and reducing the costs and improving the speed with which data is shared and made available.

While building a new system is costly, the fact that all the information is there and we don’t need to run between floors in a building or send countless emails is an incredible improvement to any enterprise.
