Not only does the immutable ledger heighten security, the smart contract platform eliminates possible human error and risk of fraud that would otherwise be present in the supply chain of gold. They democratise access to gold. Enjoy! Link: https://digix.global/

Dee and Cello talk shop about price, adoption and more in another exciting episode. We get into the weeds about needing options for people with different needs, concerning decentralization. Hybrid options should be very important in the future, too. Traditionally we only had 1 option: forgoing control and privacy into the hands of a few centralized entities.

It's all explained in another episode as we are joined by the community who have questions about EOS, BAT, and more.
