#7 From Micropayment to IoT: IOTA wants to shake up the crypto world

Welcome to the Future of Money. Gemeinsam mit Dan Simerman, dem
Head of Financial Relations bei der IOTA Foundation, spricht Nick
über Blockchain und Kryptowährungen und wie das Ganze denn genau
funktioniert. Bisher sind Kryptotransaktionen umständlich und
brauchen Zeit, doch IOTA verwendet eine andere Technologie, um
Transaktionen über Blockchain schneller zu machen. Für diese
Folge braucht ihr schon ein bisschen mehr Wissen über Blockchain
und Krypto, aber keine Sorge, wenn ihr etwas nicht wisst oder
Fragen habt, dann meldet euch natürlich gerne bei Nick! Jetzt
erst mal viel Spaß mit der Folge zur Zukunft von Geld.
