Record-keeping is how we, as people in a society, track ownership of property.
In 2023, counties are typically the jurisdictions responsible for managing property records or deeds - who owns what.
Blockchains, as a form of public ledger can be a durable and efficient registry for all sorts of information. All sorts.
When a small business needs to raise money, either to start or extend operations, it is common to seek financing from traditional sources like brokers or local banks.
With P2P financial markets developing, what some people call DeFi (Decentralized Finance), new opportunities and options will be developed. But what might this look like?
Companies such as Mattereum, PropyInc, and Republic.co are operating in this space.
