Blockchain Solutions During the Coronavirus Crisis

Exploring opportunities in the media industry is very interesting, for many reasons.

It is an industry that has suffered from an influx of fake and incorrect news over the decades.

ANSA, the leading news agency in Italy, wants to explore something new entirely.

Their goal is to use a news tracking system based on the blockchain to ensure sources are reliable.
