Overview
Recent cryptocurrency rally and strong institutional support by firms such as Tesla and MicroStrategy has brought about lots of mainstream media coverage relating to blockchain and distributed ledger technologies. However, blockchain is about far more than Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies and ICOs. This ALB virtual masterclass will:
- Examine the underlying technology and its practical application across a range of economically important sectors and government activities.
- Identify and explore various legal and regulatory issues that must be addressed as blockchain and distributed ledger technology becomes embedded into supply chains and commercial relationships.
- Provide specific case studies that include the use of technology to streamline cross-border trade, manufacturing and logistics, and the legal implications of a large-scale hack or cyber attack.
