Rethinking established hierarchies through Blockchain?
Decentralized technologies such as Blockchain can not only be used in the fintech sector, but also bear potential for society as a whole. Thanks to blockchain, transactions can now be carried out without the need for central intermediaries to build trust. Processes can be automated, seamlessly traced and made transparent. Blockchain also offers unprecedented possibilities for new, decentralized organizational forms and self-managed objects. This makes it possible to question existing hierarchies and rethink predominant structures. Will rigid hierarchical organizational models become obsolete? Are objects going to manage themselves in the future? Could they then belong to themselves?
