In the discussion I defined blockchain and related technologies. I also discussed the work conducted up to that point in the BadgeChain initiative. I identified probing questions that I still have. Finally, I concluded by asking members of the higher ed and research community to join us as we explore these spaces.
The slide deck for the chat is available here and embedded below.
