Richie Etwaru, discusses the opportunity and implications of blockchain as a paradigm to slow/chose the expanding trust gap in commerce. He unpacks blockchain to a level of simplicity to be consumed by those that are just starting to understand and explore the paradigm. He lays out a current state of commerce, suggesting that every company is currently at risk of being disrupted or incurring severe strain from a blockchain version of itself.
Professionally, Richie Etwaru is a c-level at a Fortune 500 Company, an author, the owner of international patents, the founder of multiple ventures, an experienced keynote speaker, an angel investor, a member of advisory boards, and a recognized thought leader in the area of digital, technology, and design.
Specific to this TEDx talk, Richie is an adjunct professor of blockchain management at Syracuse University in New York, he has delivered over 100 blockchain keynotes across the world, he has written well read blockchain blogs, he has been interviewed on blockchain in online TV shows, and has advised governments and venture funds on blockchain opportunities.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

Risk management should always come first, the reason many traders lose money is not simply due to inexperience or a lack of knowledge of the market, but because of poor risk management

Greetings all. I've learned a ton from some of these comments, thank you for sharing them. On the sudden "volume" increases. The taping/recording of this talk had some (many) glitches, this talk took almost 1.5 hours to record (normally TEDx/TED talks are a single straight recording). I kept having to stop because the camera was not working, then the slides were stuck, then the microphone stopped working. Then the clicker battery died (I was the first speaker, so all the AV bugs were found) I was interrupted (had to stop, back up, and restart mid-sentence) about two dozen times. It was fun, I learned how to keep composure, and not break out into a sweat. LOL When I had to "restart", my energy level and voice levels were different every time as I struggled with composure and frustration :-( Hence, in post-production, I think it was very hard for the editors to "smooth" out my energy and voice.

Just imagine that the tangerine farmer's books are on blockchain ledger, his accountant business is a blockchain company and all the sales of regulated pesticides are recorded using the same technology. It's still possible that the farmer treated the tangerins with sth someone gifted to him, or that they got sprayed by mistake by his neighbour, but imho the trust gap would be filled well enough.
@maciejmaciata5981
@maciejmaciata5981 6 лет назад
Guillaume Nani, not necessarily, It would be enough for the farmer to certify all his transactions with block-chain, but I see the room for tampering in that situation. In a nutshell: bigger the network, better the verifying capabilities. The need of privacy in monetary matters comes from lack of trust and even though it's not completely necessary for the system to work, we could benefit greatly from better financial transparency in many fields. At the same time it doesn't need to be total and unlimited. Just to clarify - the farmer doesn't put anything into the block-chain. The information is being added and distributed each time he makes a transaction, that needs to consistent with the other side and rest of the network.

Interesting talk (well done) but the basic question for me is still unanswered, i.e., how to control (trust) the initial entry into blockchain? I listened to many talks and have read a few books on the topic, and they all ignore this issue. If the party entering an item initially is compromised / corrupt, then having an immutable chain afterward is useless.

And a hash key (for any data) is calculated by advanced algorithms and it is universally unique for any given combination of characters including empty spaces. i.e. If u replaced/change as much as a single full-stop in a document; its hash will change not partially, but COMPLETELY. Consider it as a finger-print of a document. This is what he meant by "unhackable".

Only 2/3 way through the video but I find his presentation and breakdown of the material is extremely good. His slim shady voice does off a bit odd but its an effective way to interrupt the flow of information and refocus the listener on the overall perspective he wants you to keep hold off.........and for me it worked. I think his presentation is very thoughtful of the needs of the listener. Great video.

An essential element of blockchains is that you have agents competing to solve a time consuming puzzle. If an entity has to much computing power compared to the rest of the competitors, the blockchain is compromised. That makes the number of trust-able blockchains in the world limited. I may be missing something but I don't think you can have blockchains used for everything. Unless we end up with a few extremely versatile blockchains that can be used for almost everything.
@hw6452

Great presentation. I understand this a lot better. I do have a question though... How can you verify that things weren't added into the chain maliciously or by corrupt individuals? I can see how you can trust that the chain itself hasn't been tampered with, but you can you trust that the individual items in the chain are legitimate? As an example, I'm a company that adds verification blocks to ensure that a tangerine is organic. The tangerine company pays me under the table to push the verification to the chain. So in a way, isn't there still a trust gap in that we need to trust the blocks themselves were placed legitimately?

This presentation exemplifies one of the major problems I have with most proposed blockchain solutions--namely that blockchain doesn't do much to improve trust in MOST scenarios. The obvious exception is cryptocurrencies, which incidentally is what blockchain was designed for. Take his tangerine example. He doesn't seem to consider the fact that a company that would lie by putting false stickers on a product would also lie about the chemicals they used. Yes, in theory it would be impossible to retroactively change the ledger, but people could still lie when CREATING the ledger. This sort of use of blockchain does nothing to solve the trust problem. If anything, it just gives a false sense of security to people. Oh, and there's a downside to immutable ledgers: If the ledger is incorrect then it can't be changed. Imagine a tangerine company going out of business because someone marked a chemical as being used when it wasn't, and the record could never be changed. I'm convinced that blockchain has a use in certain niche markets. However, I think 99% of the hype surrounding it is just that: hype. Most of the things you can do with blockchain can be done far more efficiently and simply with traditional databases and cloud computing.

@michaelwallace9291 4 года назад
To the point of people lying when creating the ledger. Yes. But do consider their lie will be undeniable and easily traceable. Punish the company. Take away their privilege to offer that product or fine them or on another public business block chain mark that company as lying in the past for anyone who wants to check the books. On your point about correcting lies or errors after the fact. You can add a new link in the chain stating the facts and to ignore a previous chain. It'll still show and likely give someone pause and want to double check. But you can still label it as being fixed

Very interesting concept, let's hope it catches on. Re ; checking the validity of the Organic Tangerine, surely the scan code could be copied by an unscrupulous supplier from a validated and trusted supplier, and you would be non the wiser? How would one also apply such a concept to something like insurance where you expect to get ripped off?
@CrashEtwaru
@CrashEtwaru 6 лет назад
Hi, this is a very good question ... I don't have great answer - but some decent thinking (I think, lol) - this is where millers equilibrium theory comes in, where the cost of a transaction (real our counterfeit) becomes so low or so high, commerce or crime can in some cases be "not worth doing" ... the return profits of faking instead of actually doing it can be low ... we can discuss further if you like.
@ganeshapp9792
@ganeshapp9792 6 лет назад
Richie Etwaru copying an existing QR code isn't that difficult. This doesn't fit the Miller's theory. The cost to copy a QR code is far cheaper than converting your existing inorganic farm into organic farm. More over, the blockchain in supply chain confuses trust on immutable ledger to that of trust in people. The big assumption made here is that there is an inorganic tangerine supplier who was audited and found inorganic by an inspector who added the inorganic information to a centralised ledger. A shopper scanning the QR code now can't trust the information in the app, because well this inorganic supplier could have hacked the centralised ledger and modified the data (Miller's theory, very unlikely). And so having this in blockchain would be more trustable. But the probability of the supplier hacking the centralised ledger and changing it is far lower than him bribing the inspector and getting him to enter "organic" in the first place. Be it centralised or blockchain, if the inspector enters it as organic and signs it with his key... it won't matter if the information is in blockchain or centralised ledger... the trust level is zero.
@maciejmaciata5981
@maciejmaciata5981 6 лет назад
Jiffy, Ganesh App & Guillaume Nani - The very idea of blockchain is that there is no inspector needed. How I see it is that the verification is done by cross referencing all the transactions regarding the farmer, all his suppliers and clients, his accountant and the national controlled substances database (obviously blockchained). Then the app on Your device calculates the probability of the tangerine being actually organic (or particular alergen free) based on all these publicly available data. That would create a strong incentive for the producers to be even more transparent, organic or non-organic only and to do theirs business with blockchain implemented partners. Copying the QR code gives nothing as you would instantly notice with the app that its not that brand, not that shop and not that expiration date ;)
@ganeshapp9792
@ganeshapp9792 6 лет назад
Maciej Maciata so you are saying the farmers can't get chemicals without it being recorded on the blockchain? That they have no incentives to work with block chain supporting suppliers transparently, and on the side work with non-blockchain supporting suppliers to get chemicals with Fiat. Black market will exists. And we are also assuming that this can't be achieved with a centralized DB, because well the farmers will hire Russian hackers and modify records. But wouldn't it be easier for the farmer to modify the records before even putting them on the blockchain?
@maciejmaciata5981
@maciejmaciata5981 6 лет назад
Ok, one thing at a time. I'm saying that ideally yes, every purchase should be recorded on a public ledger. Even still using cash You would need a hash key to make the purchase. In most countries pesticides sales (at least the dangerous ones) are already restricted and recorded by designated institutions. Implementing block-chain technology by these institutions would make theirs DB accessible and usable. The idea assumes that the farmer runs his business and keeps his books on a transparent block-chain, right? So finding money to buy smuggled pesticides on a black market would require some pretty creative accounting I recon, and in this case we are not talking about a sustainable model here. Not to mention millers equilibrium kicking in. This is achievable with centralized DB, but much less accessible/effective, more expensive and vulnerable to tampering and data corruption of any kind. I don't see how the farmer would be able to modify the record as the information about him emerges from all his transactions with his partners, transactions of his partners with theirs partners and so on. He would have to convince each partner to be able to record a false information to the chain, and if you're thinking 'how hard breaking the encryption can be?', just google "mining farm" ;) I understand and appreciate your approach, we shouldn't be over optimistic, we should think of and talk about all the worst case scenarios we can imagine. I'm not saying either that it's gonna be perfect or easy to implement but the technology is there and we should recognize it's advantages and capabilities.
