This meetup discusses the impact of blockchain on payment services such as Libra Crypto-token or Stable Coins and asset representation as tokens and how that relates to such services. With Libra expected to function as a multi-currency backed stable-coin and generate use cases primarily based in the financial and technology sector, this Disrupt meetup will discuss the newest trends, legal frameworks, use cases related to tokenization across various industries.
