We compile some of our best stories covering one of the hottest topics from 2015: blockchain technology.
There is no topic with a more meteoric rise in 2015 than digital currency and the technology that backs it. "Bitcoin" (the crypto currency) and "blockchain" (the distributed ledger) went from being two words rarely uttered at financial technology conferences to being on the tip of seemingly everyone's tongue.
It wasn't just those on the outskirts of the industry, such as fintechs and small firms looking for a new and unique way to get an edge. Major players, including most of the big banks, now have some type of project or innovation lab that includes a focus on distributed ledgers and, specifically, blockchain technology.
