While Blockchain Exploded in 2017, Has it Grown Up?

2017 will likely be remembered as the Year of the Blockchain. There’s no doubt in my mind that blockchain technology is here to stay and will alter the way we organize and distribute capital within the global society.

The dramatic push by Bitcoin up to $11,400 and back to $8,800 in one insane day earlier this week is the shape of things to come.
