Covering EU, US, and Asian jurisdictions, it assesses the necessities of and opportunities for the regulation of blockchain technology in a range of key legal fields, such as competition law, securities regulation, corporate, insurance, contract, and data protection law. Instead of postulating the disruptive superiority of distributed ledger technology across potential areas of application, however, the volume offers a nuanced treatment of use cases ranging from early applications in finance to ICOs, alternative dispute resolution platforms, and smart contracts. It takes a distinct techno-social perspective in understanding the legal implications of blockchain technology as a possible new general-purpose technology. The interaction of blockchain technology with the legal system raises key questions concerning governance and government, private order and state authority, and the relationship between different ‘calculative’ spaces for assessing and allocating value. These questions do not only have a long pedigree, they are also acutely relevant to our immediate future. By drawing on technological, political, economic, and legal points of view, the volume shows why blockchain matters for societies, and why the law matters for blockchain. 000047977 588__ $$aOnline resource 000047977 650_0 $$aBlockchains (Databases)$$xLaw and legislation 000047977 650_0 $$aBlockchains (Databases)$$xSocial aspects 000047977 650_0 $$aBlockchain (Databases)$$xEconomic aspects 000047977 650_0 $$aFinancial services industry$$xState supervision 000047977 650_0 $$aFinancial services industry$$xLaw and legislation 000047977 650_0 $$aElectronic funds transfer$$xLaw and legislation 000047977 650_0 $$aDigital currency$$xLaw and legislation 000047977 85641 $$uhttps://doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198842187.001.0001$$yView eBook 000047977 903__ $$aOxford Academic 000047977 904__ $$aJournal article 000047977 980__ $$aOS
