The Blockchain as a form of Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) has the potential to transform well-established financial institutions and bring lower costs, faster execution of transactions, improved transparency, auditability of operations, verifiable financial transaction with ease and other benefits. So I strongly affirm with Alexander Lebedev.
