[kictanet] BaaS (Blockchain as a Service

[Rosemary Koech-Kimwatu]

Hi Erick,

Thanks for sharing, I agree with your sentiments. Blockchain use is
limitless, through technology we a great amount of data that needs to be
organised in a way that will make services more accessible for various
users. Blockchain seems to be the only technology that we have so far that
will enable a centralized ledger of information which has previously been
 extremely siloed, in both  industry and even government.

Kind regards,

Rosemary Koech-Kimwatu
