The Cardozo Blockchain Project was active from 2017 to 2022 and explored the legal questions surrounding blockchain technology, along with the numerous legal and policy issues stemming from it.
During its tenure, the project examined how blockchain technology was revolutionizing finance and legal agreements, creating new possibilities for financial and legal systems, and demonstrating potential for secure government applications, virtual organizations, and machine-to-machine interactions governed by code.
The project convened academics, technologists, policymakers, and private sector members for symposia, workshops, and events that explored blockchain’s impact on law, government, and society. It also provided training to law students and lawyers on blockchain technology and its applications in legal agreements. Additionally, the project issued policy papers and research on the subject.
Though no longer active, the Cardozo Blockchain Project contributed valuable insights and discussions on blockchain’s evolving role in the legal landscape.
