BlockchainTech Demystified. Powered By ExtraCredit.io

Through the worldwide acceptance of crypto currencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, blockchain technology has gained immense popularity globally. Although the awareness of most people about block chain technology is limited to crypto currency, it has countless application in a number of industries.It is reported that blockchain engineers at the moment earn $64,000 to $149,000, annually. This relevance of the blockchain technology is hinged on three areas of interest- Confidentiality, decentralization and Security.
Some of the industries that benefit from the potentials of blockchain technology are;
• The banking industry
• Cybersecurity
• Election management
• Supply chain management
• Logistics and the Internet of Things (IoT)
• Public archival

However,blockchain technology firms are having a challenge- extremely limited number of qualified personnel. Firms such as Deloitte and KMPG are having a hard time getting personnel to man their platforms.
Statistics have it that only 20,000 blockchain experts are available. It even gets worse as more companies are adopting blockchain technology and are in search of experts in the field to develop and maintain it.Developing and third world countries the worst hit because, they can really benefit from blockchain technology, but then, the shortage of man power is a serious set-back. It is a worldwide shortage.
Evidently, there is need to train people in this field, but there is, apparently no colleges or institutions where people can receive the training, which is yet due to the shortage. Furthermore, with the evolution and continuous advancement in blockchain technology, those who are already in the field still need to build on their knowledge on a continuous basis.
The need to solve this problem and pave way for blockchain technology to continuously thrive induced the birth of ExtraCredit. https://extracredit.io/

QUASA — платформа, которая решает проблемы!

Здравствуйте, уважаемые читатели! В современном мире огромное количество различных магазинов, соответственно и огромный товарооборот, но, как правило заводы производящие товары находятся очень далеко от точек сбыта; иногда в другом городе, а иногда в другом регионе, за сотни километров. Все эти товары необходимо как-то доставить. Компаний по транспортировке становится все больше и больше, как и магазинов, но могут ли одни и другие быть уверены в добросовестности своего партнера?

Так же бюрократические издержки очень мешают плодотворной работе двух сторон: заключение различных договоров по доставке от представителей тех и других, утверждение этих договоров у руководства, различные страховые споры и нюансы и т.д. В итоге набирается приличный список проблем, которые мешают данной системе работать наиболее качественно. Кроме того, современный подход к реализации логистики в компаниях является крайне затратным. Согласитесь, что львиную долю в стоимости заказов и продукции с...
