“Email, social media, mobile web and big data reduced costs
of searching, exchanging of information etc. However, we
still cannot trust one another to transact without validation
from bank or government. These intermediaries invade your
privacy. Blockchain enables moving digital currency from
one person to another, and removes the third party; speeds
up movement; while lowering costs and creating a chain of
transactions in a ledger that is open and publicly visible to
all”, said Mr. Sirish Kumar, Co-Founder & CEO – Telr.
