Blockchain - The Future of Everything (from 2015!)Axel Quack
This document provides an overview of blockchain technology and its potential applications. It begins by explaining how blockchain first emerged through Bitcoin as a way to enable digital currency without a central authority.

What is a hard hack? Broadly speaking, hard hacks alter „nonliving systems.“ For instance, using instant messaging in a meeting to communicate work-related insights while a particulary boring speaker drones on is a hard hack. A couple of months ago I organized the first hard hack meetup. Employees met once a week at a private meetup called Campfire where they could tinker and experiment with or „hack“ their own projects. As it was a private even we cut the discussion short if the topic drifted toward the company ́s interest or profile.

My role was to recruit and lead a team of experts to develop the product and marketing material. Working under pressure in a short 10- month time frame we were able to create and deliver a working and sellable system, financed by the revenues of regular customer projects.
