outside the boutique industries of micro-finance and tech startups, cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology are moving fast into the mainstream. Banks, insurance companies and the financial press are scrambling to understand their implications. Once a conceptual
twinkle in the eye of Cypherpunks – an online movement of anarchic libertarian-leaning cryptographers – cryptocurrencies have become a social, technical and economic reality. Bitcoin, the first widely implemented cryptocurrency, arose from the ashes of the
2008 global financial crisis as a codified alternative to trusting fiat currencies that are heavily influenced by private banks and the nation state. Bitcoin’s decentralized protocol – the blockchain – promised to free people from an oppressive global monetary
system and put financial power back into the hands of the masses. But for those not technically inclined, a host of startup companies have produced fee-based systems that simplify use of the blockchain. A fledgling industry sector has spawned, receiving over
one billion U.S. dollars in capital investment to date. As the spectacular collapse of Mt Gox, a Bitcoin exchange, demonstrated in 2014, financial distrust is far from being eliminated in the new systems of digital capital distribution. Yet the world of the
blockchain moves on. Its software architecture and algorithms are being configured by startup companies and platforms such as Ethereum to reorganize information in banking, law and accountancy via smart contracts, techno-equity and decentralized registers.
This workshop introduces cryptocurrencies, bringing academic researchers together with industry representatives to discuss the phenomenon of alternative monetary systems such as Bitcoin and the capacity of blockchain architectures to scale and reorganize institutional
cultures and social practices.</span></p>
