The Nexus of Blockchain and Space (Part I)
The World Economic Forum describes blockchain as one of the key technologies of the future. As a result, there is a proliferation of initiatives investigating the potential of blockchain in a variety of contexts beyond the well known bitcoin cryptocurrency application. The nexus of blockchain and space is an interesting and underexplored area. This panel seeks to introduce the IAC community to emerging projects in that nexus and some of the governance challenges that emerge.
