Introducing "Blockchain for Impact"

Blockchain for Impact is a new, in-progress book published as open source on minds.com. I'm publishing here so that I can learn how minds.com works, so if I make any mistakes, please go easy on me!

The intention is to build a bridge between those working on a better world and the technologists working on the platforms that can make that better world a reality. The starting assumption is that the existing system is broken and rather than trying to fix the old system, we can build a new one. 

As each chapter is completed, the entries below will be linked to the completed chapter.
