Download or read book Blockchain Technology and Applications for Digital Marketing written by Bansal, Rohit and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-06-25 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blockchain is a digital, decentralized technology that is continually growing and making quite a mark in digital marketing. Blockchain has brought a drastic change to technology in the last few years, and it is referred to as distributed ledger technology (DLT), which makes the historical backdrop of any computerized resource unalterable and straightforward using decentralization and cryptographic hashing. Blockchain is transforming digital marketing by removing companies’ abilities to pull data from customers without also offering to reimburse them for its value. Marketers can leverage the technology’s positive attributes that customers are searching for in today’s digital landscape, both in transparency and data protection. In terms of digital marketing, blockchain is one of the most important topics for its applications in the marketing field. Blockchain Technology and Applications for Digital Marketing provides insights on blockchain technology and its applications in digital marketing. This book grants a comprehensive understanding of how this technology is functioning within modern marketing and how it can influence the future of the digital marketing industry. The chapters cover the applications of blockchain, benefits and challenges, disruptive innovations in digital marketing, privacy and security concerns, and the recent trends of blockchain in digital marketing. It is ideally intended for marketers, advertisers, brand managers, executives, managers, IT specialists and consultants, researchers, businesses, practitioners, stakeholders, academicians, and students interested in blockchain technology and its role in digital marketing.
Download or read book Blockchain Revolution written by Don Tapscott and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-05-10 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blockchain technology is powering our future. As the technology behind cryptocurrencies like bitcoin and Facebook's Libra, open software platforms like Ethereum, and disruptive companies like Ripple, it’s too important to ignore. In this revelatory book, Don Tapscott, the bestselling author of Wikinomics, and his son, blockchain expert Alex Tapscott, bring us a brilliantly researched, highly readable, and essential book about the technology driving the future of the economy. Blockchain is the ingeniously simple, revolutionary protocol that allows transactions to be simultaneously anonymous and secure by maintaining a tamperproof public ledger of value. Though it’s best known as the technology that drives bitcoin and other digital currencies, it also has the potential to go far beyond currency, to record virtually everything of value to humankind, from birth and death certificates to insurance claims, land titles, and even votes. Blockchain is also essential to understand if you’re an artist who wants to make a living off your art, a consumer who wants to know where that hamburger meat really came from, an immigrant who’s tired of paying big fees to send money home to your loved ones, or an entrepreneur looking for a new platform to build a business. And those examples are barely the tip of the iceberg. As with major paradigm shifts that preceded it, blockchain technology will create winners and losers. This book shines a light on where it can lead us in the next decade and beyond.

Download or read book Blockchain and Banking written by Pierluigi Martino and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-04-05 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores blockchain technology’s impact on banks, particularly how blockchain technology can create new opportunities for banks and poses new threats to their business. The digital revolution in the banking industry, whose customers are increasingly adapting to new technologies and new types of competitors and solutions arising in the space, has had a significant impact on the banking industry over the past few years, requiring banks to substantially rethink their business models and strategies in order to cope with these developments. The rise of blockchain’s distributed ledger technology (DLT) has also played an important role since it has the potential to change the whole banking industry in faster and more disruptive ways than ever before. Born as the technology underlying Bitcoin, which has been used to allow the recording of cryptocurrencies transactions, blockchain can facilitate the process of recording any transaction type and track the movement of any asset, finding application in many different areas. Specifically, it has been acknowledged as a disruptive force in the financial sector and a key source of future financial market innovation with the potential to reshape existing business models in the financial services industry. Regarding the banking industry in particular, existing literature suggests that blockchain poses new challenges and generates opportunities as well as threats. This is pushing banks to rethink their operations, business models and strategies. However, literature in this regard is still in its infancy, and we do not yet have a clear understanding of blockchain technology’s potential implications for banks. This book expands the literature on blockchain technology in banking by providing new insights into the developments, trends and challenges of blockchain in the banking industry. In particular, sheds more light on the implications of blockchain technology for banks by discussing the advantages and disadvantages related to this technology and exploring its potential impact on traditional banking business models.

Download or read book Political and Economic Implications of Blockchain Technology in Business and Healthcare written by Rodrigues, Dário de Oliveira and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-06-11 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Besides love, money and health are the most valuable human yearnings. Therefore, blockchain technology is paramount: a new foundation of confidence for human valuable transactions. Like information sharing was catalyzed on the pre-blockchain internet, transactions are now triggered on the new internet of value. In this second digital inflection point, economic media encompasses value beside information, and individuals can privately transact digital assets for the first time in history. Decentralized but structured organizations running on blockchain networks reduce transaction costs and are particularly competitive insofar as they guarantee data authenticity, confidentiality, and integrity, providing functional autonomy with disintermediation and smart contracts. Everything changed after user data were made public on the internet and privately traded by big tech companies, and nothing will be the same once that data is made private on the internet and publicly transacted by their rightful owners. While the internet of information reshaped the world, the internet of value will reform it, and everything will depend politically on this being done freely. Political and Economic Implications of Blockchain Technology in Business and Healthcare provides relevant theoretical frameworks on the civilizational impact of blockchain technology, which redesigns human interactions concerning value transactions. It gives ideas, concepts, and instruments to advance the knowledge on cryptoeconomics and decentralized governance in the new distributed trust paradigm. The chapters explore the ethical repercussions and profound political-economic consequences to society, providing insights into business applications focusing on the healthcare sector. In a blockchain era affected by the post-COVID-19 new normal, which mixes politics, economics, and health, this book is essential for students and researchers in social and life sciences; professionals and policymakers working in the fields of public and business administration; and healthcare workers and researchers, academicians, and students interested in blockchain technology and its political and economic impacts in the industry and society.
