3 Key Points:
1. There is a lot of potential for blockchain to make a lot of tedious processes obsolete.
2. For this technology to be universal, we need it to be open sourced. For this, we need a
digital unified wallet.
3. This solution needs to be pioneered without deceit. Blockchain can be a solution or the problem if it isn't done right.
