Fintroduction:
Digital Bearer Banking

We published our first book on Blockchain back in 2019.

And how the world has changed! NFTs were just emerging, Crypto was a dirty term and CBDCs were just an idea.

You don’t need to be an engineer, a cryptographic genius nor a ‘miner' to embrace the digital asset economy.

You do need to understand how this new eco-system needs to work to be safe for all participants and the impact it will have on today's business models.

The crypto warriors and the blockchain purists hate the drive for formalisation and regulation and they really don’t know nor care about what they don’t know - including say leverage, AML, credit, operational risk, business resilience, servicing clients and the list goes on.

We seek to bridge this every evolving and enlarging gap.

We help explain the principles of :

– Distributed ledgers and blockchain fundamentals

– The practice of cryptography and the critical concepts that relate to this technology namely cryptographic hashing, public key encryption and cryptographic authentication or digital signatures

– Digital identities

– Smart contract and Oracles

– Digital assets - including the plethora of cryptocurrencies ranging.

From consensus crypto currencies to stable coins or CBDCs, digital tokens, the process of tokenisation, NFTs and the drivers of value both inherent (“airdrops" / entitlements etc) vs. capital gains of digital (traditional and emerging) assets linked to real physicals

– Digital asset infrastructure including the exchanges, custodians, wallets (hot and cold)

– The regulator lenses

The list is increasing but so what

Much more importantly, we explain why these matter, and the basics of the IMPACT that this new Digital Bearer eco-system will have on

1/ Business Models
2/ Asset Classes
3/ Infrastructure
4/ Revenues
5/ Clients

And how Digital Bearer Banking is evolving and how to be relevant in this new Digital Asset Economy
