A crude blasphemous joke on The Project has triggered a normal people's revolt against the most recent onslaught of groomer and degenerate propaganda. See who the leaders of this backlash are on Tim's News Explosion. Forget Ed Sheeran and Harry Styles the biggest entertainment in Melbourne has been Sally Rugg vs her former boss Teal Independent Monique Ryan in the Federal Court. Since mediation failed, Sally Rugg's affidavits have been released. They revealed she committed the ultimate sin in the eyes of a covid cultist mask Karen like Ryan: Rugg flew home from Canberra while covid positive late last year. Former UK Health Secretary Matt Hancock's ghostwriter Isabel Oakeshott has broken a non-disclosure agreement with him releasing his WhatsApp messages during the pandemic in the UK Telegraph. They reveal Hancock and Prime Minister Boris Johnson knew covid's mortality was almost exclusively in the elderly and there was no science behind forcing school pupils to wear masks. The messages also showed that Hancock wanted to scare the pants off people about a new variant to force more compliance with lockdowns. LGBT World Pride in Sydney is finally over but the rainbow propaganda and grooming events will continue. The backlash has continued over the prevalence of overtly sexual artwork displayed in public supporting WorldPride. The Project has had to apologize for airing a blasphemous joke about Jesus by comedian Reuben Kaye. Reformed criminal and rapper Spanian was cancelled by his record label and publisher for a viral video that called out pedophiles hiding behind the pride flag.

News Flash – R3 – Announcing Corda Enterprise – 10.07.18

Welcome to the first episode of our new News Flash series, where we share the latest developments in the blockchain space, straight off the press. In today’s episode we have Ryan Rugg, Global Head of Insurance at R3 and a regular speaker at Insureblocks. R3, which featured in one of our previous episodes (R3 – The blockchain banking consortium) started in 2015 as a consortium of financial institutions that joined forces to test blockchain solutions. Three years later, their hard work has culminated in an exciting new project and we are proud to announce the release of Corda Enterprise to the insurance industry. Corda Enterprise is R3’s commercial offering that brings greater enterprise capabilities to the Corda platform. It builds upon Corda’s functionality, enhancing availability, security and performance.   Corda Corda, the blockchain created by R3, is the only blockchain that has been designed and built specifically for business. Corda’s focus on privacy, security and scalability distinguish it from other blockchains. Unlike Ethereum and Hyperledger Fabric, where all the information is shared between every node on the network, Corda shares information on a bilateral and multilateral level only with parties that need to see it. This choice has certainly paid off as there are currently over 200 financial institutions, regulators, insurers, trade associations, professional services firms and ISVs that are working on Corda. Many of these have featured on Insureblocks, such as B3i, which replaced the IBM Hyperledger Fabric with Corda, Insurwave and RiskBlock. Corda also appeals to industries beyond insurance. Fusion LenderComm, a syndicated lending platform and GuildOne’s Royalty Ledger, a blockchain solution for the oil and gas sector, both utilise Corda. This wide participation across industries is the reason Corda is an open source project. R3 wanted Corda to be a decentralised and open environment where every company can work with others or create and share their own innovative solutions. Continuing in this spirit, Corda and Corda Enterprise are fully interoperable. Anyone can remain on Corda without procuring the Enterprise licence. Anyone can upgrade to Corda Enterprise and still work with applications on the Corda blockchain.   Why Corda Enterprise? The whole idea of Corda is to enable businesses to transact directly and privately, reducing transaction costs and streamlining operations. However, many large users faced technical, regulatory and compliance issues that prevented them from using blockchain internally at scale. After listening to Corda members’ requests, R3 is launching Corda Enterprise and has implemented additional functionalities so that every business can benefit. These extra features enhance security and make Corda Enterprise easier to scale: Blockchain Application Firewall - enables Corda Enterprise to be deployed inside corporate data centres while retaining the ability to securely communicate with other nodes on the network. This is a unique feature that is not present in any other blockchain 24/7 support Predictable release schedules Governance, performance and availability monitoring Enhanced security Disaster recovery Support for Oracle and SQL databases Corda network The Corda Network People often talk about ledger interoperability but forget about interoperability within ledgers themselves. Within differently designed networks, such as Ethereum and Hyperledger Fabric, users cannot seamlessly operate from one application to another, leading to trapped assets in different channels. In reality businesses want to operate with more than one application at a time. With Corda Network, members have a unique ID. This means they have a single identity on the platform and can seamlessly operate within all applications, whether on Corda Enterprise or Corda open source.   Starting out: Corda or Corda Enterprise?

Bonus episode: diversity in blockchain As a man of mixed origins and as a father of two little daughters I am concerned by the lack of diversity that we find in blockchain and in the insurance space. To help me tackle this important issue I had the great pleasure to have Ryan Rugg (previously on Ep. 6 - R3 - the blockchain banking consortium), Head of North America for R3, and Madeline Bailey, Head of Strategic Initiatives at MS Amlin. At MS Amlin, Madeline is head of strategy and innovation, charged with leading the blockchain efforts on the Insurwave platform, whilst Ryan spearheads the insurance effort at R3, working alongside other B3i collaborators on the Corda platform.   Is there a diversity problem in blockchain? Between Ryan and Madeline, both recognised that diversity is vital for collaboration amongst teams and across the industry within such radical innovations such as blockchain. By ensuring that all individuals are heard equally, all perspectives can be included making the sector stronger. The collaborative nature is at the heart of blockchain’s use in insurance, where its purposes are to break down the barriers associated with different individuals and allow effective communication across all groups, with Madeline expressing her pleasure in collaborating with all involved parties whilst working on Insurwave. Efforts to ensure diversity exist, with various internships targeting minorities and women in the financial sector, however Ryan also states her focus on mentoring start-ups helping to provide women with opportunities to succeed in InsureTech. Madeline joins her in these beliefs, aiming to provide more gateways for women into technology, whilst showcasing current female movers-and-shakers, such as Hélèn Stanway and Charlotte Halkett, in attempt to improve the female outreach for the industry.   The gender pay gap Following on from a social experiment in Norway (where young boys and girls were asked to undertake an identical task and then given different size rewards), both Madeline and Ryan expressed the need for equal pay, with rates of pay based on skill sets rather than gender or race. Ryan supported this by mentioning the sales force CEO, who analysed the pay across his whole company, and then levelled off the gender pay differential, costing him 3 million dollars in the process. He was then shocked to discover merely a year later, that the differential had reopened, calling for increased awareness for equality in the process. Whilst Madeline and Ryan both agreed with this statement, they also recognised the need for women in senior management rolls and conference positions to ensure that the richness of views is captured at all levels of business. Equal opportunities Whilst increasing female presence in senior management positions is important, education and support are also crucial in providing equal opportunities for women in the InsureTech. Madeline outlined a great example where a ‘women-in-InsureTech’ network ensured that conference panel featured a female speaker thereby increasing female outreach. Alongside this, Magda Ramada Sarasola, of Willis Towers Watson (previously on Ep.9 - Blockchain's disruptive potential) is looking to create a YouTube channel, providing blockchain education for boys and girls alike, and offering opportunities for young people to understand and appreciate technology, providing a gateway into the industry. Ryan also recognises the need for young girls to understand that it is possible to maintain a family and be a great parent whilst simultaneously reaching the top of their career.   How are organisations promoting diversity? Both Madeline and Ryan outlined various strategies which companies used to promote diversity. Ryan identified mentoring within companies as a way of promoting discourse between groups, and providing outreach talks to students, specifically targeting women. Madeline was also impressed by MS Amlin appointing a n...

Ep.14 – Blockchain use cases outside of insurance For this week’s podcast we go out of the insurance world to explore some interesting blockchain use cases and pilots in other industries. In episode 6 we had Ryan Rugg introduce us to R3 the banking blockchain consortium. But for this one we wanted to go out a little bit further. As our guide for this journey we had the pleasure of having Lee Brenner, Chief Engagement Office at the Global Blockchain Business Council, live from Pennsylvania!     2 Minute Definition of Blockchain Blockchain technology is a decentralised database that is connected together to create a permanent unchangeable record of data that is loaded onto blocks. Those individual blocks of data are connected to other blocks of data (ie. chained together) on this database. Blockchains act as global notary. Eliminates the middle man by creating a system of trust and a level of confidence between the actors on the system allowing for P2P transactions.   The Global Blockchain Business Council The Global Blockchain Business Council (GBBC) came out of a meeting of thought leaders (blockchain, government and different industries) hosted by Richard Branson on Nectar Island to really think through how blockchain technology can affect civic society. The idea of a global institution that unites individuals from the business community and from the blockchain community. The GBBC tries to advocate on behalf of the broader ecosystem to regulators around the world that if they try to regulate blockchain that it is done from an educated point of view. Another aspect of the GBBC is engaging with government questions on who they should be talking to if either they want to get advice on blockchain or if they want to implement a blockchain solution such as on a land trust or a voting system for example. The GBBC can advice them on which companies can help government implement that whether it’s a startup or an enterprise. They can also share interesting case studies from the business world or from other countries. The GBBC thus tries to build a broad network from the blockchain industry, the business world, to governments and regulators and to NGOs and charities.   Uses cases Business Processes & Payments - BitPesa A good example of how blockchain technology can be used in sectors outside of insurance is Bitpesa. Bitpesa tries to answer the question “how can we make financial transactions in Africa more efficient and secure?”. The current system is one were transactions are extremely slow, numerous intermediaries are involved, high costs and in general a very inefficient system. Bitpesa created a blockchain solution that has built in data privacy, minimal fees and is mobile based thus providing the unbanked in Africa with financial solutions. This provides their customers the ability to make P2P transactions and regulators with automatic real time auditing.   Logistics & Supply Chain: Walmart Walmart has started to use blockchain technology in their supply chain. An example of this was used for tracking pork from Chinese producers to the store front. Walmart wanted to track the origins of the meat and its location in transit along the supply chain. This process would usually take days but with blockchain it could be achieved in minutes. Applying this technology to the Chinese market was an important move for Walmart as Chinese shoppers remain sceptical of the quality of domestic food products, after various food-related scandals, such as one involving baby milk formula tainted with industrial chemical melamine, dominated headlines for weeks in 2017. Now Chinese shoppers will be able to scan the food in Walmart shops to see the entire history of the food from farm to store: Healthcare – MediLedger How can patients' medical records be stored, tracked and verified on the blockchain? How can we move from a paperless system to a very secure blockchain one?
