In blockchains there is a basic rule behind Bitcoin-style consensus: miners compete to add the next block, and the network eventually follows the chain with the most accumulated proof of work. In practice, that means everyone is trying to agree on o...

Blockchains and peer-to-peer systems represent a paradigm shift toward radically decentralised computation, where systems operate across numerous participants without central control. In the recent paper Decentralised collaborative action: cryptoecon...

Let's imagine this hypothetical scenario: cryptocurrencies and, more specifically, Bitcoin, see massive adoption and become an integral part of society. At the same time, we become an interplanetary species that extend their reach to the Moon, Mars,...
