- Title
Cryptocurrency and Blockchains in Emerging Economies.

- Abstract
In the verification and validation stages of software development, practitioners check to make sure the software is delivered bug-free, and that it meets the requirements it must satisfy. But rarely do software practitioners examine the bigger picture--the quality impacts that a class of technologies might have on societies and economies. This article does just that, taking a step back to address the larger-scale business and social value of cryptocurrencies and other blockchainbased systems, emphasizing their unique value proposition in emerging economies. By improving the quality, reliability, and auditability of key processes that impact national economies, blockchain-based systems have the potential to improve access to energy, banking, and access to the developed world.
