Welcome to this weeks' edition of Digital Bytes where we have analysis on the following topics:

Blockchain and digital assets are effectively helping to develop the insurance industry - whilst Blockchain technology is still in its infancy, there are already a number of promising use-cases that drive efficiency, security and cost reduction across the insurance industry. Though still in its early stages, Blockchain technology is making headway and will undoubtedly be a part of the industry's growth.

Higher inflation and a call for greater decentralisation resulting from the Russian - Ukraine conflict? - prior to the conflict, inflation was already on the rise and the surge in many commodity prices will now only exacerbate what could prove to be a real problem for the global economy. Russia’s actions highlight the fact that centralised control structures create systemic risks for financial markets for which Blockchain technology now offers a solution, thus helping to maintain confidence and ensure investors are treated even fairer.

Social networks: the effect of digital assets and blockchain - social networks such as Facebook and Tencent are showing increasing interest in Blockchain technology. Digital assets (for example, NFTs) will define ownership on the metaverse and digital currencies are set to power this new digital economy. Traditional social networks are profit-driven companies, whilst decentralised social networks can be autonomously run organisations that improve and develop over time to benefit their users. How will some of today’s social network giants address the challenges they face, and what role will blockchains (and the digital assets they can create) play?

Financial Ghouls vs The Good: the ‘Battle Royale’ to kill mortgages - how digital assets are changing the mortgage industry forever and saving capitalism for the many... not the few. The use of Blockchain technology is allowing us to alter the way that real estate is purchased, owned and even used as the backing for our own banking requirements, potentially unlocking and creating real liquidity in the global $326 trillion property market.
