Description: This book has two purposes. First it will describe the operation and ongoing legal issues that confront the developers of the
Blockchain. Second, it will then analyse the development of Blockchain against the backdrop of previous historical innovations over
the last half-century or so, in various jurisdictions, with a view to understanding how some of the challenges and solutions posed by
those products can help guide us to avoiding mistakes from the past, while leveraging this knowledge to in order to mitigate some of
the risks involved in using this technology. As such, no discussion of proposals to regulate Blockchain is complete without some
discussion of what types of policy have proven to be the most conducive to previous innovations in payment technologies with a view
to ensuring that the transition (if any) to these new products and concepts is free of turbulence for consumers and businesses alike.

Most will agree that 2008 was a momentous year in financial history. What most consumers associate with that year is the massive
global financial crisis that tested the resolve of politicians and policy-makers alike. But in financial technology (fintech) circles, the
year is also important for the release of a White Paper that paved the way for the development of Bitcoin and Blockchain technology.
year is also important for the release of a White Paper that paved the way for the development of Bitcoin and Blockchain technology
for the world of electronic payments, but also for commercial relations and the way that we conceive of the Internet generally. Ten
years later, some lessons have been learned regarding shielding consumers from considerable financial risks, both on the macro level
with respect to global financial policies, and on the micro level with respect to some of the developments in crypto currencies that
have followed.
Since the White Paper first appeared, a new level of excitement has surrounded the development of these fintech products that
promoters declare, are poised to revolutionise modern-day finance and commerce. This level of euphoria, both in the world of
technological development and in the world of business, has not been seen since the days of the dot-com bubble in the early
twenty-first century. As such, developers and entrepreneurs alike have attempted to reimagine the new uses to which the technology
behind the Blockchain can be deployed in order to extend its applications to achieving new-found efficiencies and to finding new
ways of exploiting economically the technological advances being made by Blockchain to change the way that information is stored
and used online.
As such, now would be a good time to take stock and consider how developments in Blockchain technology can be viewed in the
context of the evolution of payment mechanisms generally with a view to examining which factors, if any, can serve as accurate
predictors of the probability that an emerging product could displace an existing payment technology. The rapid pace of capital
deployment in this area would seem to suggest that the technology will have some staying power well into the future. However, the
inner workings of the technology have proven to be somewhat of a mystery for legal observers who hitherto have taken a
wait-and-see approach to engaging with the emerging legal landscape behind the technology. Indeed, since much of the development
behind Blockchain is
being driven at such a rapid pace, numerous participants from software developers, financiers, regulators and lawyers, to name a
few, have made their contributions in isolation from one another, and it is submitted, without sufficient collaboration with
counterparts in other disciplines to enable the technology to evolve in a manner that does not repeat the mistakes of the past.
