Despite the wide spectrum of blockchain applications and their proven potential to disrupt fundamental societal processes and institutions, there is very little research on their non-technical, societal, economic, policy and legal implications.<\/strong> Without funded research we can only speculate on how blockchain applications may affect our everyday practices, institutions, and laws. To address this gap, the BLOCKCHAIN & SOCIETY\u00a0project will focus on 3 questions:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. What internal factors contribute to the success of a blockchain application?<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. How does society adopt blockchain?<\/li>\n
  3. How to regulate blockchain?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The details are here:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. What is blockchain technology?<\/a><\/li>\n
    2. Why does blockchain matter?<\/a><\/li>\n
    3. Research questions and objectives<\/a><\/li>\n
    4. Work packages<\/a>\n
