The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed vulnerabilities in global supply chains, leading to significant loss of life and economic disruption. Manufacturers struggled to find new suppliers when Asian sources shut down, resulting in widespread shortages of essential goods. Blockchain technology offers a solution to mitigate such disruptions. This book features insights from leading experts on how blockchain, alongside innovations like additive manufacturing, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things, can tackle persistent issues that slow down and complicate the delivery of goods, particularly during crises. Current supply chains rely on a complex web of documents and intermediaries, obscuring the status and custody of goods. This lack of clarity can lead to consumer panic, as seen with toilet paper shortages during the pandemic. Blockchain, known as the Internet of Value, allows for digital peer-to-peer management and trading of assets, promising to revolutionize global commerce. It will enhance operations, logistics, procurement, transportation, customs, trade finance, manufacturing, and inventory management. The book outlines what leaders must do now to prepare for a decentralized future, offering valuable ideas for executives and entrepreneurs to engage with stakeholders and embrace the blockchain revolution.
Die Blockchain-Revolution
Wie die Technologie hinter Bitcoin nicht nur das Finanzsystem, sondern die ganze Welt verändert
Blockchain ermöglicht Peer-to-Peer-Transaktionen ohne jede Zwischenstelle wie eine Bank. Die Teilnehmer bleiben anonym und dennoch sind alle Transaktionen transparent und nachvollziehbar. Somit ist jeder Vorgang fälschungssicher. Dank Blockchain muss man sein Gegenüber nicht mehr kennen und ihm vertrauen – das Vertrauen wird durch das System als Ganzes hergestellt. Und digitale Währungen wie Bitcoins sind nur ein Anwendungsgebiet der Blockchain-Revolution. In der Blockchain kann jedes wichtige Dokument gespeichert werden: Urkunden von Universitäten, Geburts- und Heiratsurkunden und vieles mehr. Die Blockchain ist ein weltweites Register für alles. In diesem Buch zeigen die Autoren, wie sie eine fantastische neue Ära in den Bereichen Finanzen, Business, Gesundheitswesen, Erziehung und darüber hinaus möglich machen wird.

Erstmalig stellen die Autoren systematisch die erfolgreichsten Geschäftsmodelle vor, die die Wirtschaft langfristig revolutionieren werden. Um konkurrenzfähig zu bleiben, dürfen Unternehmen jetzt nicht zögern, den größten Teil ihrer Geschäftskommunikation und ihrer Transaktionen auf das Internet zu verlegen. Noch sind die Unternehmen der westlichen Welt in vertikalen Sparten strukturiert. Daran änderten auch die großen Trends der letzten Jahrzehnte (Lean Management, Business Reengineering oder TQM) nichts. Unternehmen der Zukunft werden durch die neuen Geschäftsmodelle der digitalen Wirtschaft geprägt. Es gelten neue Spielregeln im Wettbewerb. Gewinnen werden die, die die Chancen für sich nutzen können. Verlieren werden alle, die an ihren bisherigen Verfahrensweisen festhalten. Die Autoren berichten von zahlreichen Fallbeispielen, u. a. von Ford, Walmart, Cisco, PalmPilot, Linux, mp3. com, Monster. com, Enron, General Motors und FedEx.
