The 26 richest people on the planet own as much, in terms of assets, as the 3.8 billion people that comprise the poorest half of the globe’s population, according to research presented by Oxfam in January 2019. How can blockchain technology, digital identity and advanced economic models be used to tackle global wealth inequality, one of today’s biggest problems?
