Introduction
I was opportune to be in a digital conference today, which was organized by a big digital firm Digi Link. Attending digital/tech events was never my thing, but i decided to give this particular one a try. At first, i had already placed in mind that we would be receiving lectures base on techs only, but to my greatest surprise, it was far beyond that.
Though, some tech talks also came in.
When it comes to digitisation, so many persons believed that it is only based on technological advancement, but after attending this conference, it widen my mind to knowing more.

Main Context
Digitisation, mostly in general terms, means the process of transformation, from analogue to digit. This changes is quite different from the analogue perspective, but what matters most is the efficiency it provides.
Along the line, i have come to realize that most advanced tech, we are currently using today, don't give that maximum efficiency humans deserves.
Where are this efficiency cut of from ?
This efficiency that are attached to every digital products, are suppose to come directly from its developers.
A perfect illustration could be pictured between three(3) financial mobile applications commonly used around me.
It is best not to mention their names, but we all know how this financial applications has helped in terms of transaction of funds.
One(1) out of this three(3) application is very fast and doesn't charge a dime for transaction. Another, charges little amount, but very slow in terms of transaction speed. While the third(3) is own by a bank, which charges more, and transaction speed can be very disappointing.
From the above illustration, we can conclude that the three(3) applications are mobile financial applications, but the efficiency differences can be easily spotted. The aim of the developers of all those apps, was to provide a easy banking system, where transactions can be easily made, but the quality of their products determined who would actually stay longer in the banking system.
Main Idea
This context simply enables us to understand that, a digital culture is very essential in delivering a digital product.
This digital culture creates that good relationship between developers of tech and their users, as users can easily get maximum efficiency in technological product.
How it relates to the blockchain
We all know the transparency the blockchain technology has brought to the internet world. This transparency was achieved with the digital culture in place.
Developers of this technology could simply relate with internet users, and also identify the problems when a centralization simple is in place. Blockchain technology was simply a way of leveling every internet users, making no one a boss, and no one a slave.
My Opinion
Most people in the tech world today, don't embrace the idea of digital culture. They feel that people using their digital products don't really need it in a 99.99% efficient rate.
Applying digital culture, is a better way of branding a product, even before the developer of that product releases it. Every user would prefer to go for something that is more efficient, no matter how costly it is.
In Conclusion
It is good to know that the leofinance community embraces a digital culture, by wanting to hear the opinions or suggestions of its users, on how new interface can under go changes. This digital culture, makes everyone wants to spend more time on the community, because they understand how important their suggestions can be.
