Digital Asset Custodians in Securing Crypto

Image
                                       Photo: Author's own, at the Buddhist temple in Genting Highlands, Malaysia, 2018 As a longtime Crypto and (Crypto security) enthusiast, I was really interested when I came across news that Indian crypto exchange WazirX has now partnered with BitGo Trust, a regulated digital asset custodian. This partnership aims to improve security of funds on WazirX's platform and rebuild user trust. Here is some background,  in July 2024, India's one of the largest crypto exchanges WazirX suffered a major cyberattack that led to nearly $235 million in digital assets being stolen ( Explained: The WazirX Hack ). This breach occurred despite WazirX implementing advanced safeguards (multi-signature wallets, address allowlisting, and hardware key storage), this highlights  how even pretty cautious and secure exchanges remain vulnerable.

Gen AI Canvas

Image
  A few years ago, a friend of mine, introduced me to the idea of the AI-ML Opportunity Canvas. I really liked the concept, and it has stayed with me since. So thought of creating my own version for Gen AI, inspired by the work of Louis Dorard and also a paper from Ulrich Kerzel and a LinkedIn blog from Amandeep. I think a Visual Canvas is a great idea because it helps structure thinking and brainstorm around how Gen-AI can create value, identify key challenges, and plan next steps. It’s a simple way to bring clarity. Feel free to use, share, or modify it as you see fit, Hope you find it helpful.

This is a fascinating and rich program that dive deep into supply chain systems and technology. The program introduces four core components of supply chain technology, 1. Data Management, 2. Machine Learning for SCM, 3. Supply Chain Systems and 4. End to end simulation from the perspective of the supply chain management ecosystem. The simulation aspect of the supply chain is completely new to me. Although the formal program has yet to touch on simulation, it caught my attention (kind of a shiny new thing). So, I started exploring it on my own. This is my musing.   The Role of Simulation in Supply Chain Management As per  the “Supply Chain Management: Strategy, Planning, and Operation“ by Chopra and Meindl “A supply chain consists of all stages involved, directly or indirectly, in fulfilling a customer request. The supply chain not o...
