Dive In
The Blockchain Monitor helps professionals sort through the noise to understand the industry implications of emerging blockchain technologies. We are all inundated with news and breathless announcements on blockchain, cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, and the like. We know that most professionals do not have time to grind through the internet to sort through what matters and what doesn’t. The Blockchain Monitor is does the work for you (and more!) so that you can quickly understand the reality of blockchain technology, and its potential implications – beyond the hype. It is extremely important to have a grounded understanding of the real implications and a sense for when, how, and why these innovations matter.
We built the Blockchain Monitor to be a trusted voice to help customers understand the emerging industry implications of blockchain technology. There are a lot of important changes occurring around the world right now, which are going to ultimately affect businesses and governments in a significant way. While we see blockchain as one of these changes, we appreciate that it can be really difficult to sort through all the noise to understand what is actually happening. This is not an investment newsletter and we’re not trying to be bitcoin millionaires here – we just want to help customers understand where this technology is going to intersect with our careers, societies, and lives in the coming years.
Our Goals
Provide a fundamental understanding of key, transformative technical concepts around blockchain
Identify and showcase business and institutional players who are creating real enduring value within blockchain technology with broad industry implications
Help put into context regulatory developments and other risks and their implications to organizations, users, and developers of blockchain-based applications
What We’re Not
The Blockchain Monitor is not targeted towards cryptocurrency investors. We limit investor-related information or discussion, in so far as it does not help inform a situational understanding of the broader blockchain ecosystem.
Don’t Take Our Word For It
“Blockchain is already having an impact on the ideas of ‘money’ and ‘value’ and will have profound impact on policy and business going forward. The Blockchain Monitor has helped provide me a diverse survey of what is happening in blockchain not only in the U.S. but around the world. The examples they provide and the resources they lead me to have been very helpful in enhancing my understanding of this technology.”

“I am focused on my ad tech business but I keep hearing how ‘blockchain’ is going to disrupt digital advertising. I don’t buy it, but I definitely need to stay up to speed so I can decide if and when I need to pay closer attention. I have used the Blockchain Monitor to develop a real sense of where things stand with blockchain, so I can focus on what is in front of me.”
