Blockchain could not resolve all problems, World Bank’s official says
The Land Administration Specialist in the Global Land and Geospatial Unit of the World Bank Aanchal Anand has produced some remarks related to blockchain technology at the 20th Annual Conference on Land and Poverty in Washington, DC, as Reuters reported. During the event, some specialists discussed how blockchain may resolve some problems related to land rights. The World Bank’s official warned against a blockchain hype. “Tech can look big and flashy, and like it can solve all our problems ... but the Big Mac burger never matches up to the one in the ad”, Anand said during the mentioned conference. “Sometimes we get lost in the fancy things, but basic tech can deliver the results”, the World Bank’s specialist said further mentioning some communities using phones to map areas, according to Reuters.
