More about this course
The Blockchain for Business Sustainability course investigates the transformative role of blockchain technology in sustainable business practices. The opaque nature of conventional supply chains poses significant challenges to businesses and consumers alike, often hindering informed decision-making and sustainable production. By enhancing transparency, traceability, and accountability, blockchain emerges as a powerful tool in supply chain management, circular economy, renewable energy, ESG reporting, and incentivization.

We will dive into these five potential domains and discern what blockchain can and cannot accomplish, equipping you with a nuanced understanding of this technology’s contribution towards a sustainable future.

What you will learn
Blockchain for Sustainable Business: Explore the transformative role of blockchain in sustainable business practices under the guidance of Professor Tan.

Supply Chain Transparency: Examine how blockchain enhances transparency, traceability, and accountability in traditionally opaque supply chains.

Sustainable Applications: Investigate blockchain’s role in supply chain management, circular economies, renewable energy initiatives, ESG reporting, and incentivizing sustainable behaviors.

Stakeholder Capitalism: Develop a deep understanding of stakeholder capitalism and its implications for sustainable business.

Ethical Marketing in Web3: Analyze the shifts in logic required for ethical marketing in the blockchain-based sharing economy.

Key Takeaways
Scalping (or scalp trading) is a short-term trading strategy focused on making quick profits from small price movements, often through dozens or even hundreds of trades a day.

Over time, these small wins can add up—especially when executed with precision and discipline. Success in scalping depends on fast execution, technical analysis, and access to real-time data.

Scalp trading strategies demand constant attention, mental stamina, and strict risk management. Less-experienced traders may benefit from testing their strategies through paper trading before risking real funds.

Key Takeaways
SKY and USDS are the native tokens of the decentralized Sky Protocol, representing upgraded versions of MakerDAO’s MKR and DAI.

USDS is a soft-pegged, collateral-backed stablecoin designed to maintain a value equal to or close to one US dollar.

You can trade, save, upgrade tokens, stake SKY, and earn rewards while retaining full control over their funds.

Sky.money is the non-custodial gateway providing 24/7 access to the Sky Protocol’s trading, saving, staking, and governance features.

Key Takeaways
Newton Protocol (NEWT) is a decentralized protocol designed to provide an open, permissionless, and programmable compute layer for the Internet.

The project introduces a global registry of computing services, allowing users and developers to discover, access, and compose computational resources in a trustless manner.

Its architecture enables a variety of use cases, including decentralized finance (DeFi), AI, batch computing, privacy-preserving workflows, and more.

Newton Protocol aims to make accessible computation a public utility, much like how blockchain democratized public data infrastructure.
