Understanding The Blockchain With Alex and Don Tapscott

Episode #512 of Six Pixels of Separation – The Mirum Podcast is now live and ready for you to listen to.

For his latest book, Blockchain Revolution, he teamed up with his son, Alex Tapscott. Don wrote books like Wikinomics, Grown Up Digital, and many more that have become seminal books of our digital culture, and he is an advisor to some of the largest corporations and governments in the world.
