More and more people are realizing how powerful data is and need to be protected. Data is the new oil, and companies like FB and amazon are the new petrodollar oil champions in the world. Fortunately, blockchain provides a reliable way to break these islands of data and create a world in which data can be liberated by sharing data while still maintaining the same ledger or its original ownership, allowing creators to be rewarded.
Lol. What do you mean new oil? Data has been the back bone for many years now, specially when software companies or firm started to boom in late 00's so this is not new. They started the trend that data not only needs to be protected, but it can make or break a company because all business operation decisions should be based on datas. Companies needs something to measure to demonstrates how effecting they are in achieving their key business objectives.
