Prof. Jason Potts is a Distinguished Professor of Economics at RMIT University and Co-director of the Blockchain Innovation Hub at RMIT in Melbourne Australia.
In our conversation we cover:
- The economy as a complex adaptive system
- Why capitalism is a misnomer, and instead, the economic system in which we live might be better characterised as an institutional market society for the growth of knowledge.
- We explore why innovation actually begins before the creative entrepreneur in what's called an innovation commons.
- and, of course, what will likely become a defining technology in this decade and those to come: blockchain. Jason explains why this will be the base layer for the emerging digital economy and why NFTs, non-fungible tokens, are the start of a new age of experimentation in property rights.
If you've had any hesitancy or misgiving about blockchain technology in the past, Jason will likely change your mind.
