Abstract

The article considers current legal issues of implementation and use of smart contracts in the sphere of capital construction. It is shown that an objective need of capital participants to conduct electronic transactions, store and process legally significant information, and conclude smart contracts has been formed. The rapid development of high technologies has inevitably led to the need to use smart contracts in the sphere of capital construction as a mechanism for quick transactions. A smart contract is a legal form of obligatory relations in the sphere of capital construction, a special means of forming and expressing the will of participants aimed at creating the desired legal consequences. The use of smart contracts will allow developing and simplifying the interaction of participants in the construction process itself, increasing their level of trust, and accelerating mandatory procedures.
