Wavelength Podcast Episode 136: Blockchain Projects & Some Politics
Anthony Malakian and James Rundle record a weekly podcast touching on the biggest stories in financial technology. This week: blockchain and politics.
This week Anthony and James dig into IHS Markit's new cloud-based TradeServ platform, which will eventually replace MarkitSERV's DSMatch platform, and host MarkitWire, Markit Trade Manager, among others. Since the rollout is also connected to the Depository Trust & Clearing Corp.'s (DTCC) new Trade Information Warehouse (TIW), which will be built using blockchain technology and is expected to be rolled out in 2019, they then take a look at blockchain projects in the industry, including some thoughts from Nasdaq. (2:00-13:30)
Finally, they close the show with a rant about the stupidity of the past week in politics. (14:00-end)
