Blockchain Study(1) - What is Blockchain?Fermat Jade
This document discusses blockchain technology and provides examples of its applications. It begins by defining blockchain as a continuously growing list of records called blocks, linked using cryptography. Each block contains a cryptographic hash of the previous block, a timestamp, and transaction data. This makes blockchain resistant to modification of past data. The document then provides examples of how blockchain is being used in various industries like healthcare, finance, manufacturing, government, and more. It aims to show the vast potential applications of this new technology.
Blockchain technology allows data to be stored and exchanged on a peer-to-peer network in a secure and decentralized manner without intermediaries. It works by validating transactions and adding them as blocks to an immutable blockchain that is shared across all nodes in the network. Blockchains use cryptography to ensure data integrity and prevent alteration of past records. Real-world applications of blockchain include powering cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, implementing smart contracts, building decentralized applications, and developing government services like in Dubai.
The document provides an overview of decentralized finance (DeFi) including common terms and applications. It discusses how DeFi allows for lending, borrowing, and farming of crypto assets using smart contracts in a permissionless and trustless manner. Specific DeFi applications mentioned include stablecoins, automated market makers, liquidity pools, yield farming, lending platforms, decentralized exchanges, flash loans, and the composability of combining different DeFi building blocks.
This document discusses how blockchain technology can be used to tokenize real estate assets and overcome challenges in the real estate industry like fraud, high costs, and lack of liquidity.

This document provides an introduction to blockchain technology including general concepts, how it guarantees security, and technical details. It discusses how blockchain uses cryptography to store data in a growing list of blocks that are linked together to form a distributed ledger. This ensures security and privacy without centralized control. Examples of potential blockchain applications are also given such as smart appliances, supply chain management, smart contracts for industries like healthcare, music, and government, as well as identity verification.
Crypto tokens imply optionality and the ability to better manage risk. The thesis of this talk is that smart contracts are options, and as such, can be used to control risk (unwanted future uncertainty) in a wider range of areas than has been possible previously, in finance, and in other areas too such as medicine. Options as a financial market instrument have long been used to control the amount and timing of risk in specific ways and tailor exposure with granularity. Smart contracts are an even more flexible species of options because they are programmable contracts that can be used to confer the right to buy or sell any blockchain-based asset or liability at a future moment in time (blocktime or “fiat” (regular) time) per certain terms and consideration. Therefore, smart contracts allow a greater variety in the degree and type of risks that might be brought under management. The impact of having greater control over risk is that intangible social goods are produced such as surety, confidence, and reliability, which help to engender a more trustful society.

The document discusses how technical analysis of cryptocurrency assets can be improved by incorporating blockchain indicators. It provides examples of how traditional technical analysis indicators like Fibonacci retracement levels, exponential moving averages, and Bollinger bands can be reinforced with complementary blockchain data on in-out money flows, exchange flows, unspent transaction output analysis, and active addresses. By combining on-chain behavioral data with price-based technical analysis, traders may gain a more robust view of market trends and investor sentiment. The document concludes that technical analysis patterns can inform blockchain indicators and vice versa, representing a promising new approach to cryptocurrency market evaluation.
This slide deck details some of the lessons we learned building price prediction models for cryptocurrencies. The session provides examples and practical tips about the challenges of price predictions in crypto asset markets.
Fascinating Metrics and Analytics About CryptocurrenciesJesus Rodriguez
This document discusses the need for a new approach to analyzing cryptocurrency assets using data science. It argues that cryptocurrencies generate far more behavioral data than traditional assets through their public ledgers. This rich blockchain data can provide insights into metrics like the number of traders profiting from each asset, how long investors hold assets, geographic trading patterns, and concentration among large holders. The document presents examples of data analyses for various cryptocurrencies that could help monitor market trends, predict price movements, and identify risks around exchanges. In conclusion, it advocates applying data science to simplify cryptocurrency analysis and unlock insights from their unique blockchain datasets.

Demystifying Centralized Crypto Exchanges using Data ScienceJesus Rodriguez
Centralized exchanges are one of the most obscure and difficult to understand elements in the crypto landscape. From fake volumes to transaction transformations, centralized exchanges introduce a level of obfuscation that challenges even the most sophisticated analytic techniques. How can we learn to identify and understand the behavior of centralized crypto exchanges?
This session showcases a series of machine learning and data visualization techniques that help us better understand some of the patterns of crypto exchanges. Using gorgeous data visualizations, we will walk you through a journey that clearly illustrates how exchanges process transactions and distribute crypto-assets across their different addresses. Finally, we will illustrate how certain behaviors of crypto exchanges become relevant to specific patterns in the crypto market.
This session provides an outline of data science techniques for crypto-assets. The content introduces the notion of crypto asset fundamental analysis and highlights some shocking data about crypto-assets
Implementing Machine Learning in the Real WorldJesus Rodriguez
This document outlines 15 lessons learned from building large-scale machine learning systems in the real world. Some key challenges discussed include data scientists not being well-suited for engineering work, traditional development methodologies not working for machine learning, the difficulty of data labeling and feature extraction, and the complexities of training, executing, operationalizing, and securing machine learning models at scale. The document provides ideas to address these challenges such as establishing separate data science and engineering teams, implementing automated data labeling strategies, leveraging centralized feature stores, and adopting techniques like transfer learning and continual learning.
This document discusses using machine intelligence to analyze crypto-assets. It argues that traditional financial analysis methods do not work for crypto-assets due to a lack of fundamentals data and limited historical price data. It proposes that a new form of technical and quantitative analysis is needed based on blockchain data signals. Machine learning could help identify patterns in blockchain data to better understand and potentially predict the behavior of crypto-assets. The presenter is the CTO of IntoTheBlock and believes machine learning has potential to improve crypto-asset analysis by learning from real-time behavior and correlating on-chain data with price movements.
The document discusses key considerations for enterprise blockchain implementations, including selecting a blockchain platform, runtime, and complementary technology stacks. It analyzes popular permissioned blockchain platforms like Hyperledger Fabric, Sawtooth, and Corda and cloud services from Azure, AWS, IBM and others. It also reviews relevant technology stacks for integration, testing, data storage, access and security. The conclusion recommends starting small and iterating when establishing a blockchain strategy to address challenges of real-world solutions.

TrustArc Webinar: Consumer Expectations vs Corporate Realities on Data Broker...TrustArc
Most consumers believe they’re making informed decisions about their personal data—adjusting privacy settings, blocking trackers, and opting out where they can. However, our new research reveals that while awareness is high, taking meaningful action is still lacking. On the corporate side, many organizations report strong policies for managing third-party data and consumer consent yet fall short when it comes to consistency, accountability and transparency.
This session will explore the research findings from TrustArc’s Privacy Pulse Survey, examining consumer attitudes toward personal data collection and practical suggestions for corporate practices around purchasing third-party data.
Attendees will learn:
- Consumer awareness around data brokers and what consumers are doing to limit data collection
- How businesses assess third-party vendors and their consent management operations
- Where business preparedness needs improvement
- What these trends mean for the future of privacy governance and public trust
This discussion is essential for privacy, risk, and compliance professionals who want to ground their strategies in current data and prepare for what’s next in the privacy landscape.

DevOpsDays Atlanta 2025 - Building 10x Development Organizations.pptxJustin Reock
Building 10x Organizations with Modern Productivity Metrics
10x developers may be a myth, but 10x organizations are very real, as proven by the influential study performed in the 1980s, ‘The Coding War Games.’
Right now, here in early 2025, we seem to be experiencing YAPP (Yet Another Productivity Philosophy), and that philosophy is converging on developer experience. It seems that with every new method we invent for the delivery of products, whether physical or virtual, we reinvent productivity philosophies to go alongside them.
But which of these approaches actually work? DORA? SPACE? DevEx? What should we invest in and create urgency behind today, so that we don’t find ourselves having the same discussion again in a decade?
AI Changes Everything – Talk at Cardiff Metropolitan University, 29th April 2...Alan Dix

Is AI just another technology, or does it fundamentally change the way we live and think?
Every technology has a direct impact with micro-ethical consequences, some good, some bad. However more profound are the ways in which some technologies reshape the very fabric of society with macro-ethical impacts. The invention of the stirrup revolutionised mounted combat, but as a side effect gave rise to the feudal system, which still shapes politics today. The internal combustion engine offers personal freedom and creates pollution, but has also transformed the nature of urban planning and international trade. When we look at AI the micro-ethical issues, such as bias, are most obvious, but the macro-ethical challenges may be greater.
At a micro-ethical level AI has the potential to deepen social, ethnic and gender bias, issues I have warned about since the early 1990s! It is also being used increasingly on the battlefield. However, it also offers amazing opportunities in health and educations, as the recent Nobel prizes for the developers of AlphaFold illustrate. More radically, the need to encode ethics acts as a mirror to surface essential ethical problems and conflicts.
At the macro-ethical level, by the early 2000s digital technology had already begun to undermine sovereignty (e.g. gambling), market economics (through network effects and emergent monopolies), and the very meaning of money. Modern AI is the child of big data, big computation and ultimately big business, intensifying the inherent tendency of digital technology to concentrate power. AI is already unravelling the fundamentals of the social, political and economic world around us, but this is a world that needs radical reimagining to overcome the global environmental and human challenges that confront us. Our challenge is whether to let the threads fall as they may, or to use them to weave a better future.
