THE EPISODE:
Whomever solves self-sovereign, digital identities will have a trillion dollar company says Benjamin Yablon. However, innovation in some parts of the world is being stifled.

Where are regulators and policy makers thoughtfully leading the way? Should this matter to the general public? Yablon answers these questions and provides an overview of how these technologies are set to impact entire sectors such as healthcare - and outlines why promising advancements are not being explored by key stakeholders.
