There is a lot of talk about the opportunity of blockchain to change the financial services sector but with the exception of the biggest banks in the US and globally, who are actively exploring the space and trialing use-cases, the vast majority of banks (there are over 6000 banks in the US alone) still do not yet fully understand what blockchain is (something we now plan to address at many of these conferences) and how it can be implemented for use in the financial services sector. Most banks are only now embracing API’s and Open Banking and many admitted services like blockchain and AI are on their radar, it is still a little way off and for many, dependent on how the big banks embrace it.
