When and what was your first touchpoint with DLT & Blockchain? In 2022, meeting my school senior, Kunihiro Tanaka who leads the Japanese Blockchain Collaborative Consortium (BCCC), ignited my curiosity about the philosophical ideas behind blockchain and Satoshi Nakamoto.

What fascinates you most about DLT? Interoperability. Web3 aims for seamless interaction between different platforms and applications, potentially breaking down current silos and fostering global collaboration.
