Details
The Events of the Past 18 Months, The Crash in Cryptocurrency Prices and Prominent Crypto Failures Such as Those of Terra/luna, Celsius and Ftx, Might Have Been Expected to Sound the Death Knell on Crypto and Crypto Assets. Far From It. We Are Still in Hubris. The Promotion of “responsible” Crypto Has Been Gaining Not Losing Strength, Notably With the Uk Government Announcing in April 2022 Its Plans to Make the Uk a Global Crypto Asset Technology Hub and Promote a Uk Market in Crypto Assets (or Digital Assets, as They Are Often More Politely Referred Especially in Legal Circles). This Talk Explains Why the Current Promotion of Crypto and Digital Assets is Fundamentally Flawed, Failing to Recognise the Key Distinction Between Permissionless and Permissioned Data Records. Nemesis Will Follow. Catharsis, Necessary to Achieve Real Economic Value From the New Cryptographic Based Technologies, Requires Recognising the Niche Nature of Permissionless Blockchain, With Valid but Limited Application Outside the Framework of Law and Regulation. The Future is Not a Digital Asset Revolution, but the Evolution of Traditional Financial Record Keeping to Embrace Permissioned Data Access and Sharing, With All the Challenges of Data Governance That This Entails.
