How does blockchain help assets maintain their value?
Senior Research Scientist, Vishwas Patil, discusses LandCoin: A Simple Asset Management Protocol. He helps us understand that blockchains provide methods to encapsulate transfer of not only a value but any asset class that can be digitally represented. The use case discussed is an asset-transfer system for land management that the public can query in a simple and expedient manner for land records validated by regulators, registrars and notaries. This is a victory over current systems that are often broken, inefficient, corrupt and inaccurate and will help people across the world dealing with the land they have, and the assets on that land like crops and livestock.
