He has given keynotes & invited talks at MIT, Columbia, Berkeley, JPL, Nvidia, and more.

The Topic:

This talk describes BigchainDB. BigchainDB fills a gap in the decentralization ecosystem: a decentralized database, at scale. It has big-data performance levels, a rich querying system, and a permissioning system that supports public and private deployment. It’s complementary to decentralized processing platforms like Ethereum, and decentralized file systems like IPFS.
