JOHANNESBURG – Lorien Gamaroff, the founder and CEO of Bankymoon believes that virtual currencies and blockchains are the “internet of the next generation”, with potential to disintermediate banks, clearing houses and central securities depositories.
Akin to how many people failed to grasp how profound the impact of the internet would be on nearly every area of life and business, so blockchains will “transform our lives in ways we can’t imagine”, he tells Moneyweb.
A software developer, Gamaroff launched Bankymoon to help companies figure out use cases for blockchains in their businesses. Targeting the financial services industry, Bankymoon is a gold member of AlphaCode, a Rand Merchant Investments (RMI) club for fintech start-up entrepreneurs.
