TAMPA BAY, Fla. (PRWEB) October 31, 2022 - Bitcoin has a sketchy reputation thanks to media reports about the downsides of crypto markets. It's painted as an environmental risk, with the University of Cambridge estimating that bitcoin has generated 200 million tons of carbon emissions in the 13 years since its invention.(1) Additionally, crypto markets are increasingly seen as platforms for scammers and predators who get rich by stealing from users on apps like Coinbase.(2) The common perception is that blockchain and the tokens like bitcoin are speculative financial instruments that do untold damage to the environment.
Enter disruptor Bryan Daugherty who explains to Karla Jo Helms, host of the Disruption Interruption how to get beyond the scams and use blockchain and bitcoin for business. He has spent his 25-year career working with data security and blockchain applications. In 2022, he said THAT'S IT I'M DONE WITH THE STATUS QUO and went to work with the Bitcoin Association in Switzerland as a Global Public Policy Director. In that role, he demonstrates to regulators how crypto markets have overshadowed the true purpose of bitcoin. The original Bitcoin White Paper by Satoshi Nakamoto describes an honest network that provides microtransactions and data security. The tokens are simply tools to access the underlying technology: smart contracts, automation, data integrity, data storage, and data analysis.
