The accessible, non-technical guide to applying and benefiting from
blockchain technology. Blockchain has grown at an enormous rate in
a very short period of time. In a business context, blockchain can
level the playing field between small and large organisations in
several ways: Exact copies of the immutable, time-stamped data is
held by all parties, all transactions can be viewed in real time,
data blocks are cryptographically linked, all raw materials are
traceable and smart contracts ensure no middle-men, ease of audit
and reduced friction. The trust, transparency, security, quality
and reduced costs of blockchain make it a game-changing technology
that crosses sectors, industries and borders with ease. Even though
the technologies are ready for adoption, businesses remain largely
unaware of their full potential and effective implementation. End
users require accurate and up-to-date information on the practical
applications of blockchain -- Commercializing Blockchain provides
it. A practical and easy-to-understand guide to blockchain, this
timely book illustrates how this revolutionary technology can be
used to transform governments, businesses, enterprises and entire
communities. The author draws from his experience with global
retailers, global technology companies, UCL Centre for Blockchain
technologies, the government of the UK, Retail Blockchain
Consortium and many other sources to present real-world case
studies on the use and benefits of blockchain. Topics include
financial transactions, tokenisation, identity management, supply
chain transparency, global shipping and freight, counterfeiting and
more. Provides practical guidance for blockchain transactions in
