We often hear about bitcoin, cryptocurrencies and blockchain, but what about the story of the underlying technology? Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) have been considered revolutionary in changing people’s perception of how they store data and are gaining interest from various institutions around the world who are looking to leverage on the strengths of DLTs. But first of all, what is a DLT exactly?Come and join us for a free interactive evening workshop conducted by The IO Foundation on the following topics:Introduction to Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLTs)Proof of Work, Stake, ImportanceBlockchainDirected Acyclic Graph (DAG)Considerations in DLTs that are usually neglected (i.e. partitioning, scalability)About our speaker:For a long while now, Jean has been constantly disturbed by the level of intrusion information and communication technologies have in businesses and personal lives of people. Born in Spain and with a full career in IT, he eventually realized he was deeply linked to Asia and moved to Malaysia in 2012 where he started volunteering full time for a number of organizations in Malaysia and the Philippines.Supporting their IT needs became his personal action to be able to provide some levels of protection and ensure data ownership of citizens, especially those who have less access to support. He also walked dogs.In 2018, he took the leap of founding The IO Foundation and to establish a more solid and targeted direction to address Digital Rights of users. Jean believes that it will take no time that we, ourselves, become digital citizens; if we are not yet already. TIOF aims to work with pertinent regional and international agencies in crafting and implementing a Universal Declaration of Digital Rights which aims to be grounded from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Long shot or not, he strongly believes it is a much needed step into the future.Event Agenda:6:30pm – Registration7:00pm – Welcome remarks by iflix7:10pm – “Distributed Ledger Technologies and Blockchain” by Jean F.
