Today, large intermediaries establish trust in our economy and control the movement, storage, and allocation of money and assets. The status quo, however, is rife with inefficiencies. In this course, we’ll address the many challenges of the status quo and discuss how cryptoassets, smart contracts, new identity systems, and new financial business models can help overcome them. You’ll learn how blockchain technology empowers individuals, entrepreneurs, and businesses with the tools they need to help level the playing field and to participate in the value they create. By the end of this course, you’ll learn how and why transacting on the blockchain can help us bring about a future that is faster, fairer, and more distributed than the world we inhabit today.

Principales reseñas sobre BLOCKCHAIN, CRYPTOASSETS, AND DECENTRALIZED FINANCE
Great intro, but needs urgent update. Absolutely recommendable as a first step into crypto and DeFi education.
This course has made me understand what blockchain and smart contract entails. Thank you Alex and Don Topscott for this breakdown in the course. Special Thanks to Insead.
I liked this course as it very thorough but it also does no shy away from the gaps, still to be solved
Excellent content, made easy for beginners but deep enough for curious minds regarding the presented topics
