Whether cryptocurrency or NFT, a digital asset operates on the blockchain system. A blockchain is simply a ‘book of transactions.’ The great advantage of this ‘trade ledger’ is that it enables ‘credit transactions.’ The most important aspect of a credit transaction is a ‘book’ that proves whether the payment has not yet been made or has been paid in full. Blockchain is a system that makes this ‘ledger’ unchangeable and immune to theft. In other words, the nature and properties of digital assets today are more similar to ‘bonds.’ When someone steals the ‘ledger’ in a ‘credit transaction,’ everything disappears unless a copy exists. If the recorded transactions in the ledger are a means of payment, it is called ‘currency,’ and if it’s ‘art’ or ‘content,’ it’s called ‘NFT.’ They differ only in what they represent, despite sharing similar properties. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

DuPont, a global chemical company, has one core value: Safety. The company is well known for adhering to its core values which stem from its historical background. DuPont began as a gunpowder manufacturer during the American Civil War. In 1884, DuPont's CEO, Lammot du Pont, was killed in an explosion. This accident stimulated the catalyst for DuPont's realization that safety should be a core value of the company. Here's a true story as an example. Two DuPont employees were on an overseas business trip and needed to take a taxi to a meeting, but the taxi only had seat belts on the passenger side. They would be late for the meeting, but DuPont policy dictated that only one person be put in the cab while the other took a different cab. Core values represent a company's identity and mission, and complying with them is a crucial challenge for any organization. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
