  • Decentralization”, “transparency”, “immutability” - the typical blockchain buzzwords we hear more and more, including the buzzword “blockchain” itself.
    Julia Evelyn Larsen is one of the very few women in social science who has studied almost every publication on blockchain to date, as well as the co-founder of CryptoWomen CPH, a community for women interested in blockchain. She has interned at the Danish Foreign Ministry’s Innovation Department in Germany and has seen first hand how new technology quickly goes from being perceived as transformative to being captured by big corporations, which then dictate its development. Her focus area is using technology for social good and making it accessible for all.
    Larsen’s long term involvement in blockchain technology have led her to speak at events such as Roskilde Festival, multiple tech-conferences, and at Google. This culminated in her Master’s thesis on Blockchain for Social Good, for which she won the PRME (Principles of Responsible Management Education) prize at Copenhagen Business School.
    In this talk, Larsen clarifies how the technology has promise for social impact, but is currently being privatized and under-explored. She warns against the use of buzzwords and the creation of a tech inner circle.

    Bravo! A great example of how we should use technology with intent, as an enabler of meaningful solutions. Thank you for separating the blockchain hype from its actual purpose.

    Fantastic! My experience learning about blockchain has always been tricky. Very often it becomes incredibly hard to follow and apply to real-life. This is the first time I have understood what the technology can provide and how it should be analysed! Bravo, Julia

    CBDC is the only thing i fear in life. I hope someone steps up soon to prevent it from ever happening, at least here in Denmark.

      How so? It looks 2020 to me. Is it the camera angles? That's how it is if it's live performance in front of a crowed.
