Dr. Lacity participated in the episode podcast 508 for the radio network Freakcomics released on June 22, 2022. The podcast, hosted by Stephen J. Dubner and produced by Ryan Kelley, tried to teach to its audience what a Crypto Crash means and what it will do to Blockchains.
Freakcomonics started as a book that, after selling 4 million copies worldwide, slowly got its spot into the network with its first podcast Freakcomonicics radio. Currently, the multi-media franchise has more than 400 free podcasts episodes, 4 books, a documentary film, and a blog.
As an expert on the topic, Dr. Mary Lacity participated in the podcast to explain what a distributed ledger is and how it turns Blockchains into a decentralized technology that is almost impossible to get hacked. Dr. Lacity also talks about Walmart Canada and how they are saving money and time by adopting a blockchain technology app into their supply chain, more specifically into their invoices process. Before, Walmart Canada of its freight carriers could not agree about the information contented in the invoices, which ended up in a continuous fight with third parties involved, late payments, money used in investigations and trust deterioration. After the adoption of the technology, less than 2% of invoice require conciliation.
