    Less than 10 years after its initial conception and implementation in Bitcoin, blockchain technology is being heralded as the most revolutionary innovation since the internet. While many are still skeptical about cryptocurrencies, the majority of people who have come to understand blockchain agree that it has transformative potential. The problem is that money has begun flooding into the cryptocurrency market, and with it come bad actors and misinformation.
