The conference focuses on technical innovations in the blockchain ecosystem,
and brings together researchers and practioners working
in the space.
We are interested in the application of cryptography, decentralized
protocols, formal methods, and empirical analysis, to
improving the security and scalability of blockchain deployments.
We aim to foster collaboration among practitioners and researchers
working on blockchain protocol development, cryptography,
distributed systems, secure computing, crypto-economics,
and economic risk analysis.
The conference is co-organized by the
Stanford Center for Blockchain Research (CBR),
IC3, and
Berkeley RDI.
