Abstract
Blockchain is disrupting every domain of the business and part of human life and society. What is your big idea? In this chapter, readers will be exposed to conceive, design, and develop their big ideas for blockchain space to disrupt the market.
The great enemy of truth is very often not the lie–deliberate, contrived and dishonest–but the myth–persistent, persuasive and unrealistic. Too often we hold fast to the cliches of our forebears. We subject all facts to a prefabricated set of interpretations. We enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.
―John F. Kennedy (Commencement Address at Yale University, June 11 1962).
If you have a good idea, use it so that you will not only accomplish something, but so that you can make room for new ones to flow into you.
―Deng Ming-Dao, Everyday Tao: Living with Balance and Harmony.
