The Future of Money, Governance and the Law

During Episode 6 of the Government Blockchain Association’s podcast, “The Future of Money, Governance and the Law,” hosted by GBA’s Executive Director, Gerard Daché, John Dean Markunas, principal consultant in New York City at Power of Chain International Consultancy, speaks about how the time he spent in Mexico and Brazil solidified his interest in the ways blockchain technology may provide services throughout the real estate industry. A former consultant to real estate companies with over 30 years of experience, GBA member and leader of GBA’s land titling working group, John says that if more people in real estate know about blockchain technology and the important potential policy role it may play within the real estate and economic development landscape, more people will use blockchain technology applications to solve problems stemming from corruption, lack of transparency, and structural inefficiencies. John is especially interested in the data aggregation of real estate titles and deeds.

How can the education system benefit from blockchain technology or cryptocurrencies? In Episode 4 of GBA’s podcast, “The Future of Money, Government and the Law,” Nadav, a former software engineer who later became a principal at a public high school, talks with GBA’s Executive Director, Gerard Daché, on how he followed his curiosity in developing a new use case of the emerging technology. Nadav is looking to increase high school graduation standards, while at the same time, maintaining transparency in high school graduates’ transcripts. One solution to solve any issues with transparency is to create a blockchain technology application for high school transcripts in order to maintain the integrity of academic credit. Nadav also says that by rewarding high school students for advancing disruptive technology, they are empowered to become leaders in the future of money and disruptive technology. One method is to let students gain digital cash credits while in high school for those who engage in digital native tools. “Digital cash is coming,” says Nadav.

Joe Walton, Ph.D. candidate at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU), explains the functionality behind blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies, and the role of U.S. government.

In the third episode of "The Future of Money, Governance and the Law," GBA's Executive Director Gerard Daché and Mr. Walton taps into the entrepreneurial and deep intellectual pursuits blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies may bring to policy makers.
