The digital revolution has no doubt transformed our world by introducing newer technologies. Technology is changing the way we work, do business, communicate, bank and even eat. We can now work smart, communicate instantly, and connect to anyone globally. Sadly, many of the people in remote places and developing countries cannot enjoy new technologies as they largely depend on smart devices and Internet access.
In developed countries, only about 70 percent can access the Internet. Conversely, with developing countries, the statistics are way down. Less than 50 percent of the people cannot get Internet access.
When it comes to the financial services access, 2.5 billion adults in the world don’t use financial institutions to either save or borrow money. Without access to financial services, many people all over the world are living below the poverty line. But thanks to the blockchain technology, people may no longer need to have smart devices or connect to the Internet for money services.
Introduced in 2009 with the Bitcoin cryptocurrency, blockchain technology allows secure digital transactions in a peer to peer fashion. It is decentralized and therefore doesn’t require third party organizations. Transactions are direct – from one person to another.
Although initially working with Cryptocurrencies, blockchain technology is now being applied in many industries to facilitate safe digital transmissions. For instance, Kora Network has built a global financial service platform on blockchain.
