--------------------
This group aims at creating an international and interdisciplinary
network of researchers - academic and non-academic - interested in
exploring the economic, legal, technical and societal challenges raised
and faced by cryptoledger-based applications, such as Bitcoin or
Ethereum.
The purpose of this group is to enable peer support and collaboration
for researchers across institutions and disciplines to achieve a better
understanding of the opportunities and risks posed by cryptocurrencies
and other cryptoledger-based applications. 
This group includes those doing theoretical analysis, investigating
tools and applications that might hinder or support the adoption of
alternative cryptocurrencies, or collaborating on the development of new
tools to further promote their deployment worldwide.


This group will not publish specifications.
