When and what was your first touchpoint with DLT & Blockchain? In 2018 I wanted to make a phd within the topic. I made intensive research, attended conferences and seminars at that time in order to improve my understanding in Blockchain. However plans changed but my interest in the topic remained same.

What fascinates you most about DLT? DLT and Blockchain are disrupting our existing structures and how the society is shaped and organized. They offer us an alternative by replacing trusted third parties and eliminating the need for their existence.

My favourite DLT protocol/project: I like Ethereum and how the creators don’t settle down on what they offer and are continuously making efforts to improve the infrastructure. So much of the ecosystem is built on it.
