As much as the transformation changed our lives and experiences, it has resulted in centralized models like Amazon and Facebook. It also resulted in exponential growth of Fraud, Identity theft, and lack of trust. Blockchain is considered an emerging technology of this era, which will trigger the 5th industrial revolution enabling another massive storm of disruptive transformation completely changing the current business models based on trust, security, collaboration and crypto currency. As the evolution of blockchain technology is on full swing, companies and product vendors are rushing to innovate and disrupt to be the first in the gold rush. In this praxis, we will assess what companies are doing in various process areas including supply chain, dispute management, logistics, and cryptocurrency. Additionally, we will review some of the economic opportunities in the near future and what are some of the key lessons learned and gaps including global adoption, blockchain interoperability, governance frameworks, and global acceptance. v TABLE OF CONTENTS TABLE OF CONTENTS ........................................................................................................... vi LIST OF FIGURES ................................................................................................................... ix Chapter 1 - INTRODUCTION ....................................................................................................... 1 1.1 Trust............................................................................................................................................................ 2 1.2 Visibility ..................................................................................................................................................... 3 1.3 Traceability ................................................................................................................................................. 4 1.4 Business Rules ............................................................................................................................................... 4 1.5 Access to Opportunity .................................................................................................................................... 5 1.6 Lack of Accountability ................................................................................................................................... 5 1.7 Cost of doing business ................................................................................................................................... 5 Chapter 2 - BLOCKCHAIN ........................................................................................................... 7 2.1 Distributed Ledger ....................................................................................................................................... 10 2.2 Types of Blockchains ................................................................................................................................... 10 2.3 Consensus .................................................................................................................................................... 12 2.4 Smart Contracts ............................................................................................................................................ 13 2.5 Bitcoin: A popular Blockchain ..................................................................................................................... 15 2.5.1 History of Bitcoin ................................................................................................................................. 15 2.5.2 How Bitcoin works? ............................................................................................................................. 15 2.5.3 What is mining?.................................................................................................................................... 16 2.5.4 What are the bitcoin participants solving?............................................................................................ 16 2.5.5 How much miners earn? ....................................................................................................................... 18 Chapter 3 – TECHNOLOGY AND ECONOMIC IMPACTS ..................................................... 21 3.1 Technology Impact....................................................................................................................................... 21 3.1.1 Identity ................................................................................................................................................. 22 3.1.2 Crypto Currency or Token.................................................................................................................... 24 vi 3.1.3 Traceability ........................................................................................................................................... 25 3.1.4 Business Rules ...................................................................................................................................... 27 3.1.5 Cost of doing business .......................................................................................................................... 28 3.2 Economic Impact ........................................................................................................................................

  • Currency Symbol for Indian Rupee Design Philosophy
    Currency Symbol for Indian Rupee Design Philosophy The design philosophy of the symbol is derived from the Devanagari script, a traditional script deeply rooted in our Indian culture. The symbol also seamlessly integrates the Latin script which is widely used around the world. This amalgamation traverses boundaries across cultures giving it a universal identity, at the same time symbolizing our cultural values and ethos at a global platform. Simplicity of the visual form and imagery creates a deep impact on the minds of the people. And makes it easy to recognize, recall and represent by all age groups, societies, religions and cultures. Direct communication The symbol is designed using the Devanagari letter ‘Ra’ and Roman capital letter ‘R’. The letters are derived from the word Rupiah in Hindi and Rupees in English both denote the currency of India. The derivation of letters from these words conveys the association of the symbol with currency rupee. The symbol straightforwardly communicates the message of currency for both Indian and foreign nationals. In other words, a direct relationship is established between the symbol and the rupee. Shiro Rekha The use of Shiro Rekha (the horizontal top line) in Devanagari script is unique to India. Devanagari script is the only script where letters hang from the top line and does not sit on a baseline. The symbol preserves this unique and essential feature of our Indian script which is not seen in any other scripts in the world. It also clearly distinguishes itself from other symbols and establishes a sign of Indian origin. It explicitly states the Indianess of the symbol.

  • A Survey on Volatility Fluctuations in the Decentralized Cryptocurrency Financial Assets
    Journal of Risk and Financial Management Review A Survey on Volatility Fluctuations in the Decentralized Cryptocurrency Financial Assets Nikolaos A. Kyriazis Department of Economics, University of Thessaly, 38333 Volos, Greece; [email protected] Abstract: This study is an integrated survey of GARCH methodologies applications on 67 empirical papers that focus on cryptocurrencies. More sophisticated GARCH models are found to better explain the fluctuations in the volatility of cryptocurrencies. The main characteristics and the optimal approaches for modeling returns and volatility of cryptocurrencies are under scrutiny. Moreover, emphasis is placed on interconnectedness and hedging and/or diversifying abilities, measurement of profit-making and risk, efficiency and herding behavior. This leads to fruitful results and sheds light on a broad spectrum of aspects. In-depth analysis is provided of the speculative character of digital currencies and the possibility of improvement of the risk–return trade-off in investors’ portfolios. Overall, it is found that the inclusion of Bitcoin in portfolios with conventional assets could significantly improve the risk–return trade-off of investors’ decisions. Results on whether Bitcoin resembles gold are split. The same is true about whether Bitcoins volatility presents larger reactions to positive or negative shocks. Cryptocurrency markets are found not to be efficient. This study provides a roadmap for researchers and investors as well as authorities.
