This week, Rohan asks the question - 'Can Crypto Transform Legacy Businesses?' to Rohan Misra, CEO at B&B Analytics, a firm providing research, analytics and managed services to both crypto and traditional asset managers globally. They discuss how legacy businesses can adapt to and implement the power of the blockchain and crypto, how this space is still new and still developing and highly speculative, the lack of regulations in the space and whether that could be a deterrent to traditional businesses, how banks can venture into this space. Rohan Misra also talks about some big business examples of adoption of blockchain like Walmart and Vechain, and tons more.
