Block Chain Development discussion 7
This weeks reading discussed the current state of blockchain technology and suggested what the technology may look like in the near future. The author provided several suggestions that would increase blockchains value to the enterprise. Create a new thread and choose whether you would consider interoperability or scalability to be more important to blockchains future. Explain your decision and use examples from Chapter 12. Then think of three questions youd like to ask other students and add these to the end of your thread. The questions should be taken from material you read or videos you watched from this weeks assigned activities. Youre not trying to test each other, but you are trying to start a discussion.
You must do the following:
1)Create a new thread.As indicated above,create a new thread, and choose whether you would consider interoperability or scalability to be more important to blockchains future. Explain your decision and use examples from Chapter 12. Then think of three questions youd like to ask other students and add these to the end of your thread. The questions should be taken from the material you read or videos you watched from this weeks assigned activities. Youre not trying to test each other, but you are trying to start a discussion.
