In this episode of AWS TechChat, we take a journey into Amazon Managed Blockchain and Amazon Quantum Ledger Database (QLDB). I interview a blockchain specialist - Forrest, who help us deep dive into the depths of blockchain technologies and terminologies.

We start the show by setting foundations, diving into cryptocurrencies, tokenization, and smart contracts before walking through the difference between layer 1, layer 2, and sidechains.

We then pivot the discussion to private and public blockchain, Hyperledger as well as Ethereum. We close out this segment by answering some of the frequently asked questions - “Is there only one blockchain? Why do we need multiple blockchains?” 

We also discuss about blockchain versus databases and how to decide between Amazon Managed Blockchain and Amazon QLDB. 

Finally, we wrap up the show with some exciting use cases and share how you should start your blockchain journey.

Episode 84 - Blockchain Special

Blockchain Journal editor-in-chief David Berlind interviews David Wachsman, CEO and founder of Wachsman Public Relations, one of the largest (if not the largest) PR firms in the blockchain industry. The interview took place at the Consensus 2023 conference in Austin, Texas, where Wachsman PR has been a sponsoring exhibitor since 2015.

Wachsman revealed that his company currently represents 75 to 80 companies in the blockchain and Web3 space across three offices in the United States, three in Europe, and one in Asia. Given his years of experience and industry observation, Berlind was looking to Wachsman to see what blockchain trends and new companies were most interesting to him and to get some predictions for the year ahead. 

Based on what he has seen over the last year, Wachsman believes the blockchain industry is making a pretty hard pivot toward enterprises; a segment of the market that, until recently, was pretty underserved.  While there is still plenty of demand for cryptocurrencies from retail investors and consumers, Wachsman says the real killer use cases for blockchain involve scenarios that most people cannot naturally imagine until they take a moment to really understand the unique value proposition (UVP) of distributed ledger technology (DLT). For example, how blockchain can serve as the backbone for air traffic control systems that handle swarms of drones or for three-dimensional accounting systems that address the unique needs of a multi-party supply chain. However, Wachsman does admit that working with enterprise companies can be complicated. He notes that many blockchain companies are still struggling to successfully target enterprises with their offerings. 

When asked by Berlind about the barriers to blockchain adoption, Wachsman cited regulatory uncertainty, cryptocurrency volatility, and the lack of understanding of the technology as some of the main blockers. However, he believes that the benefits of blockchain technology are enough to convince enterprises to overcome those barriers and get started on their blockchain projects.

Whitepaper in Four Minutes - Hyperledger

In this brief introduction to self sovereign identity, we will talk about how we build identity systems to create trust.  Trust was something that was local and useful for establishing trust in a single domain.  The only issue with existing identity systems is that they are not trust worthy.  Still there is no good way to prove that you are a certain age, you have an account with a certain bank, etc.  It is very difficult for someone else to vouch for you.

Initially identity was siloed, then came federated identity, and now it is time for user centric identity, this is what self-sovereign identity is.

Agile Infoways Pvt. Ltd. has developed a basic prototype for implementing the vehicle registration on blockchain, through which the Registration Authorities, are able to view the citizens, register their vehicles and view the details along with the history of the vehicle.

Vehicle Registration via Hyperledger Fabric - Blockchain

O tribunal superior eleitoral brasileiro (TSE) lançou o desafio para que empresas propusessem melhorias no processo de votação brasileira, e que essa propostas fossem testadas no dia da eleição. Bem, no último domingo, a GOLedger, empresa especializada em soluções via Blockchain, aceitou o desafio e fez um teste em uma das sessões eleitorais que contou com a presença do Ministro Barroso.  

É sobre os preparativos, o teste e os resultados dessa iniciativa da GoLedger que foi em campo no ultimo domingo eleitoral que vamos conversar. Dúvidas sobre como se garantir a identificação das pessoas, o anonimato dos votos, sua posterior auditoria, a utilização de blockchain ou DLT nessa cadeia, e muito mais foram temas que tratei com o Marcos Sarre, CEO da GoLedger.
