With their member-centric approach and cooperative principles, credit unions align with the decentralized ethos of blockchain technology, says Becky Reed, chief operating officer at BankSocial and a former credit union CEO. 

Reed explains what decentralized finance is, why credit unions should be aware of it, and the benefits it provides to credit unions and members. 

Reed and BankSocial CEO John Wingate addressed the 2023 CUNA Operations & Member Experience Council and CUNA Technology Council Conference Thursday in Denver.
