The LSO standards that #lawyers follow do not necessarily protect them from #fraud. FINTRAC’s higher standard is a huge leap from potential risk to safety for lawyers who conduct business remotely. Learn more about this important standard at on.vaultie.io/3yZtfZG. #vaultie

I'll call the Rogers Centre "SkyDome" until the day I die. However, I'm actually excited to change our address to whatever we rename this street.

Online notarization has become a necessity overtime as we found ways to adapt and conduct business virtually. As a person receiving a notarized document, how can you trust in its legitimacy? #notary #innovation on.vaultie.io/2WyqwHP

Want to know why digital notarization is fascinating to me? It's because the 3000-year-old social tool that we built to solve trust problems, has a big trust problem when going digital. I wrote about how we solve that standoff using #digitalidentity and #blockchain

Vaccine passports are pretty neat tech, they combine the best of #blockchain and #digitalidentity. I broke down how the old one worked, how the new one will work, and how this is a perfect on why vaultie creates a safer digital signature (it's the same tech as the passports)

The Law Society of Ontario changes on ID verification are a solid step in the right direction toward making some of the worlds best anti-fraud tools available to lawyers.

Begging people to understand that given: 1) "We will not hand over data we collect" 2) "We cannot hand over data because we automatically delete it" 3) "We cannot hand over data because we never had it in the first place" Only (3) is actually secure against a state.

No, gas prices are not at an all-time high. (A reminder: If you're making comparisons over time about economic burdens, you need to adjust for inflation.)

The Bored Ape Yacht Club 🍌 hack serves as evidence that #NFT transactions should be backed by #verifiablecredentials linked to the person purchasing the asset. Would have saved millions in stolen assets

This is an excellent move by the Law Society of Ontario! Puts them in line with banking and insurance industries in terms of #fraudprevention and #kyc requirements. This is going to stop a lot of fraud.

Both a relief and a setback After 150 demos and interviews. Lawyers were confused about the new rules and how to implement them. More time was needed ... the setback means that money laundering will continue to be a Billion dollar demon for another year Vaultie

This would be an absolute gamechanger in #fintech and #web3 markets by standardizing the way we link DIDs to digital assets, we could really eliminate allot of fraud. Vaultie should get involved
