We've seen it happen to smartphones, the cloud and digital disruption, with the tech industry itself being among the first disrupted. Now proponents say it's time to prepare for blockchain's second shift: from something with greater control but little transparency, to something extremely decentralized and highly transparent. Gigabit connectivity is surging, says ADTRAN, with plenty of reasons driving carriers to build out fiber over the next five years.
