The future of finance
More detailed information
You’re correct. Bitcoin won’t ruffle finance’s feathers.
But there’s a lot more to blockchain and web3 than bitcoin. And chances are that this *will* ruffle finance’s feathers.
In this talk, we explore the wonderful WTF world of Decentralised Finance. What are the building blocks? What are stable coins?
What if you could use digital assets as collateral?
How will programmable money affect the future of payments and financial agreements?
These things are both real and futuristic. Together we’ll explore the potential impact of web3 on the world of finance. Can you safely ignore this or should you start exploring?

Clients have described Gerrie as accessible, enthusiastic, and adept at simplifying complex concepts. He embraces this characterization. He enjoys challenging the status quo while also appreciating the value of common sense, a trait that comes with experience (or as some might say, age).
With 25 years of experience in industries disrupted by the internet, Gerrie has become a hands-on expert in navigating the digital landscape. His expertise has benefitted various clients, spanning from FMCG corporates to AI startups and from government agencies to the World Chambers Congress.
While he remains up-to-date with digital trends, he tends to frequently use words like 'user,' 'why,' and 'alignment.' His fascination with blockchain led him to write a book about it ('Blockchain is WTF').
Prior to his immersion in digital, Gerrie's diverse background included writing about music, producing television, founding two companies during his 15 years in London, and serving as a civil servant.
