[2019-05-20]Interest for Blockchain & AI in Italy Increases Daily

[Vladdirescu87]

Awareness and interest among Italian citizens, companies and institutions, is increasing steadily, but experimentation is not growing. The finance sector knows advantages of new hi-tech frontiers, like open banking, Bitcoin (BTC), smart contracts, artificial intelligence (AI), cryptocurrency, internet of things (IoT), blockchain and distributed ledger technology (DLT). Albeit, hazards, risks, technical difficulties and lack of necessary skills are major hindrances of growth and development of innovations in the country.

The latest study conducted by Deloitte and the Fintech & Insurtech Observatory of Politecnico di Milano, evaluates the ongoing work in the field of open banking, blockchain and artificial intelligence. The survey found out that, in open banking, 84% of respondents (finance managers) have already started exploring Fintech, 77% still need to prepare themselves for this infrastructure so as to manage the phenomenon better.

The big potential of the blockchain technology is now dawning on many companies, institutions and businesses in Italy but there is something lacking and that is the entrepreneurial spirit to explore things and make the usual things great. In short, Italy needs applications of the technology in the marketplace of ideas and adoption. Maybe we should allow some time for the people of these country to adjust and adopt...time will tell if the technology can create dramatic changes in the country.

I've asked it once and got no answer, so I'll ask again - why is coinidol hyping blockchain in Italy so hard? Every week they seem to publish articles about it, does this have any basis or is it just empty hype? I don't see any other media covering Italy as some sort of blockchain paradise, and I don't remember anything important about crypto and Italy happening before - it's not a mining hub and it doesn't seem to have any progressive laws that would favor crypto.

Its this the second or third time we heard about Italy's interest about Blockchain technology? I can't find any articles about Italy's plan though, so perhaps coindol is just rehearsing one article after one another. And maybe they think that people will buy the hype. Another case of crypto media bad journalism 101 here. If there's no new news then they might as well, put re-cycle article in front for another click-bait.

Deloitte is a huge corporation that we have to give them credits for this growing interest.
They have created a strong hub around southeastern Europe that is in favor of embracing new technologies such as AI, Blockchain, Internet of Things and many more. And I think that it will continue to do so as long as they invest more.

The bolded has to be addressed first before any meaningful impact can be made else who will experiment this technology? I believed they needed experts with the required skills to implement this blockchain technology and deploy it to all the various area needed to rapidly aid its growth and development if successfully done Italy will become a major force to be reckoned in this sector of technology.
