Podcast reporter Balin Overstolz-McNair chats with Francis Mendoza, an undergraduate researcher at the Blockchain Innovation Society to learn about the future of Blockchain.

Since the Bitcoin bubble popped in 2017, Blockchain has fallen out of the zeitgeist as an exciting technology. Mendoza comes on to explain what Blockchain is and why it should not be forgotten, because its presence is growing as more people and business adopt it for a variety of applications.
