Blockchain. The word is talked about in all circles, in many markets but for those in the investment community they want to know what they're investing in and what their returns will be. What are the risks? The rewards? What do they need to know and what's dangerous if they don't know? And if you’re looking for investors, what do you need to have prepared to attract the most interest?
