ON-DEMAND WEBINAR: Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs)

Amit Kumar — Fri, 01 Apr 2022 12:14:55 +0000

As an antidote to Bitcoin, central banks around the world have stepped up and decided to design their own digital currencies, i.e., central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) in an effort to create their own forms of digitized money. China’s e-CNY for example is currently in the piloting phase and leading the international CBDC landscape, making it possible for people at the 2022 Olympic Games venues to pay in e-CNY.

Meanwhile, other central banks, such as the European Central Bank (ECB), are still investigating the possibility of introducing a digital Euro. The risk of falling behind in the race to become the new key currency in the age of digital currencies that are issued by the private and public sectors and the ever-growing declining use of cash put significant pressure on centralized issuers of legal tender to keep up. Questions regarding privacy, programmability, offline payments, and regulation around CBDCs are heavily discussed by policymakers, economists, bankers, technologists, and the general public.

Amit Kumar — Fri, 28 Jan 2022 07:21:07 +0000

Most sectors are severely impacted by lockdowns from a commercial perspective and have a clear need to transform their business model to a digital one to provide some form of commercial continuity. The Art World is perhaps one of the sectors where this need is most acute. Moving from a physical gallery to an online display to one enabled with merchant capabilities are the basic steps to achieve this. With the NFT proliferation of the past 2 years, it seems a natural next step in the digital transformation process to add NFTs representing the ownership rights for the artworks for several reasons.

This webinar will delve into the additional advantages that NFTs add to the digital transformation of the Art World and talk about physical art as endowments for artists, new markets, and clients that are attracted to NFTs, the benefits of rationalization, and insights from real-world implementations.

Amit Kumar — Thu, 27 Jan 2022 11:57:53 +0000

Tokenization has emerged as one of the formidable drivers for digital transformation in the present times. With the help of blockchain technology, tokenization can support the digital representation of shared or complete ownership of any asset with value. According to predictions by IDC, the global tokenized asset market would reach a value of $500 billion by 2025. Tokenization has evolved as a crucial instrument for optimizing business processes involving multiple stakeholders alongside introducing new business models.

The concept of blockchain tokenization has been gaining a lot of attention recently. Most important of all, tokenization has found its way to practical use cases in many traditional industries such as artwork, real estate, and equities. As the value of tokenization continues to grow, many new asset classes are becoming eligible for blockchain tokenization. At the same time, the demand for learning more about tokenization fundamentals has started gaining momentum.
