In my time with Blockchain research I have come across countless use cases. Most times however they are not described in ways in which non techie people can actually grasp the concepts. Arguably there has been a lot of hype about Blockchain and it has received a ton of press lately, but in my daily conversations with people I find that hardly anyone really understands what impacts the technology can have on society.

I came up with this deck to connect with an audience where I try to story tell and illustrate from the perspective of the problem.

“Made In China” Is a phrase often associated with low cost and low quality goods
But this negative label did no always exist
People used to view products from China such as tea, furniture, silk and porcelain as unique
Then China became a world factory and produced so many items
The media changed peoples views
Now Chinese produced goods have to be cheaper for consumers to notice
The average farmer struggles to compete in a world wide marketplace
Even if their goods are produced in an environmentally friendly and sustainable way
How can we help?
Every product has a story
Let people discover the unique journey of each product’s life
Made possible with the Blockchain
