Blockchain is the future of medicine and healthcare.

On the Innoveum Podcast, I chatted with @casparbarnes123, founder & CEO of @Amino_Chain — a startup using blockchain to transform medical research.

We talked about data ownership, equity in healthcare, how patients can control their own medical info, and how @Amino_Chain is revolutionizing healthcare.

Exponential technologies are remaking every aspect of how we think, work, and live.

How do we stay relevant in an age being reshaped by machines?

In the age of AI, the real danger isn’t falling behind. It’s wasting your attention on the wrong things.
- Endless noise.
- Manufactured urgency.
- Everyone fighting for your focus — and giving you nothing in return.

Let’s change that!

On Sunday, April 13 at 10am PT, we’re starting something different: How to Win in the Age of AI — a live conversation built for humans.
- Not trends.
- Not tools.
- Just clarity, context, and real human-to-human interaction.

52 million Americans own crypto / 580 million people worldwide
Stablecoin volume = $1.04 trillion per @CCData_io
NFT sales = $8.6 billion in 2023
Tokenization of Real-World Assets, a $16 trillion-dollar industry is just beginning.

AI might be centerstage, but it's the decentralizing forces of blockchain networks that are fundamentally transforming how we live.

@nisheink Delicious!

[Nishe 光 @nisheink]

I like being here, I like sharing art (mine + art I appreciate), I'm not forcing myself to do it or feel obligated, this is not a hassle in any way ...
Algorithms pushing content (or not) is none of my business, we're artists, not try-hard.
Peace ! 💜
