3rd Jul 2021 The genie of digital transformation is out of the bottle and wherever it cast its spell, it brought about phenomenal changes. From global competitions on robotics to freelancing on international platforms, the youths of the country put their best foot forward to chase their dream. But, the nation is now eyeing another paradigm shift – a transition from individual feats to a well-defined and holistic digital infrastructure. Recently, I ran through an in-depth article, printed in the CRI’s policy-based magazine WhiteBoard, under the title ‘Lessons Bangladesh can learn from others about blockchain regulation’. As an entrepreneur in the technological sphere, I found it particularly intriguing since the threshold level of proving mastery in the IT arena has already been crossed and the challenge lying ahead for the youths is to develop a solid understanding of the underlying technologies that power the digital infrastructure. One of those methods is blockchain, a hackneyed word among tech enthusiasts that is dubbed as a powerful technology to shape the course of IT in the coming years.
