Digital Assets, Blockchain and the Future of Value

What happens when the rules of value change? From the rise of blockchain to tokenised assets, a quiet revolution is reshaping everything from money to markets. As systems evolve, questions around trust, ownership and coordination matter more than ever for investors, institutions and governments navigating today’s fast-changing economic landscape.

We’re joined on this Monday Call by Distinguished Professor Jason Potts, one of the world’s leading thinkers on institutional economics and innovation. Based at RMIT University in Melbourne, Jason leads the Blockchain Innovation Hub, is a Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences in Australia, and co-edits the Journal of Institutional Economics. His work spans blockchain, creative fields and economic change.

We explore the future of value, the role of digital assets in society, how blockchain can support transparency and trust, and what it means for investors and policy makers in New Zealand and beyond. Whether you're crypto-curious, intrigued by changing property rights, or keen to understand the impact of decentralised tech, this session offers sharp insight into where the world is heading.
