The first Blockchain system-Bitcoin-saw astronomical returns of over 1,300 percent in 2017. As we progressed through 2017, Blockchain technologies became hard to ignore and more of the corporate world took an interest in Blockchain technologies. In 2017, the NYSE filed for two Bitcoin ETFs with the SEC, the CBOE became the first institutional investor to launch a Bitcoin futures market and CME group followed suit a week later doing the same. But it is not only large exchanges interested in getting some skin in the Blockchain game, a multitude of industries have been interested in incorporating Blockchain technologies to make their businesses more economically efficient.
Aston has created a Blockchain and security solution for decentralized document authentication and distribution. The system keeps documents on a main Blockchain, but stores edits and updates on side chains to enhance security and speed of delivery.
Blockchain technology is in a state of rapid evolution at the moment, and we are starting to see a number of major players emerging like Ethereum, NEO, Ripple and IOTA. But a lot of discussion is on how to reduce volatility without hindering innovation and decentralization. One of the leading thinkers who co-founded NEO (at the time it was called Antshares) is attempting to do just that. Hitters Xu believed his next-generation Blockchain platform Nebulas will reduce, if not completely eliminate, the need for forks. And it will bring the capability of search to the Blockchain platforms – like a Google for Blockchain.

The year 2017 proved to be an eventful one in the media with constant turmoil about Donald Trump, North Korea, Brexit, and many other topics, but one thing is very clear-2017 will go down in history as the year of the cryptocurrency.

Over the past decade, the news industry has stagnated. The “Facebook and Google are killing our business model” explanation has become a mantra for an industry that has failed time and again to find a response to disruptively competitive new digital advertising models. Google and Facebook now dominate online marketing, earning over 50 percent of total revenue, and now even publishers who can grow readership rapidly are not able to reach profitability.

In spite of government’s efforts to curb the growth of cryptocurrencies and Blockchain in India, the people of India and the Indian market for cryptocurrencies appear to love them all the more. The year 2017 has been particularly interesting for the growth of cryptocurrencies in India, mainly due to the ‘to the moon’ journey of the Bitcoin missile. Digital currency’s rapid price appreciation has sparked a nationwide interest, with the mainstream Indian media going haywire on cryptocurrency reporting. Media routinely gives both ‘investment’ advice and reiterates ‘cautionary’ warnings from the Indian government at the same time. So, how was the year 2017 for the overall development of cryptocurrencies and Blockchain in India?

Serial Innovator and Angel Investor Evan Luthra told Cointelegraph that digital assets are by far the best investment class. He makes this assertion because of the outsized returns compared to traditional asset classes. However, Luthra notes that it is a sort of investing that is generally not for everyone. The high-risk appetite necessary is only shared by a very small group of investors who tend to be young, successful, ambitious and have access to lots of capital without huge responsibilities.

Before the Internet and the rise of social media, marketing and advertising was done offline. Brands and advertisers leveraged the power of ads, banners, print content and TV to target their customers. The process may have been more transparent, but it had flaws because conventional research methods to profile customers were imprecise and lengthy. Surveys and questionnaires used to be the norm. When online advertising stormed in, an industry that was once worth billions became extinct.
