Happy International Women’s Day! Leaders share their experiences in crypto
The International Women’s Day theme this year is #BreakTheBias, so Cointelegraph spoke to 10 leaders in the blockchain industry about their experiences as women in Web3 and gathered their advice. From discussing barriers to entry to nonfungible tokens and role models, the following comments are from women in the U.S., Latin America, Europe and Asia. When asked what the current barriers to entry that women may face when considering careers in crypto, Dr. Cagla Gul Senkardes, Co-founder of the Istanbul Blockchain Women Association and lecturer at Istanbul Bilgi University, flatly answered “bias.” Speaking from a more academic point of view, Senkardes sees gender bias and culturally constructed ideologies in the context of cryptofeminism, the concept of havin...

4 Types of Hackers That You Probably Didn’t Know Existed
Image sourced from Pixabay A security hacker is someone who explores methods for breaching defences and exploiting weaknesses in a computer system or network. To the laymen, hackers are known as the bad guys of the internet, but it is way more than that, and there are many types of hackers that you probably have never heard of before. The most common attacks on the internet include malware, phishing, Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attacks, Denial-of-Service (DOS) attacks, SQL injections, zero-day exploits, password attacks, and cross-site scripting. And all these types of attacks are the ones that gave hacking sort of a bad name. According to Kaspersky, MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) became one of the first homes of hacking in 1969. They started out by altering software and hardware...

Making the Metaverse the key to a better future instead of a dystopian prison
Will the Metaverse(s) change humanity as we know it? Will the Metaverse(s) be the ultimate augmentation of human perception? Will it become an agora for our dreams (and, of course, nightmares), able to transform human perception entirely? Has it already started? To start with the latter question: Yes, the groundwork has already been laid. Sensors from our smartphones, social media, digital devices, and the digital data-driven companies that top the Fortune 500 comprise the new cathedrals, religions and tribal spaces for humanity. These technologies and the onset of the so-called Fourth Industrial Revolution, or 4IR, and the AI-driven Society 5.0 have seen more change in humanity in the last 50 years than in the previous 30,000 combined. And this is just the beginning! In 1974, in a thought...

True Tickets powers blockchain-based Broadway tickets sales
True Tickets, the blockchain-based digital ticketing platform, made its Broadway debut last fall in collaboration with the Roundabout Theatre Company in New York City. After a “successful” run thus far delivering digital tickets to the Trouble in Mind play and Caroline, or Change musical, Matthew Zarracina, co-founder and CEO of True Tickets, talks blockchain and ticketing with Cointelegraph. When a prospective theatre-goer completes a ticket purchase on the Roundabout website and chooses a digital delivery, as opposed to picking up a ticket at will call or printing it at home, that’s True Tickets cue to come in. Built on the Hyperledger Fabric platform that runs on the IBM Blockchain and deploys to Google Cloud, True Tickets provides the infrastructure that generate...
