A decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) is a governance entity that allows its stakeholders to manage blockchain-based protocols through smart contracts. The DAO explicitly specifies how stakeholders make and enforce decisions concerning a protocol's operation in a smart contract, aptly referred to as its governance contract. The design of this governance contract, therefore, has far-reaching implications for the security (trust) and privacy (transparency) of the smart contracts managed by the DAO and its stakeholders. In this work, we (i) explicate the trust and transparency trade-offs of the design choices in implementing a DAO and (ii) highlight how poor choices introduce critical vulnerabilities, using real-world examples as case studies. To this end, we analyze $48$ public, actively used Ethereum-based DAOs that control a vast capital. We classify the design choices into a handful of key dimensions that succinctly capture how a DAO's stakeholders initiate a protocol change, vote on it, and, based on the voting outcome, execute that change. Our analyses crucially uncover a new class of attacks, which we call governance attacks, that directly exploit the fundamental design of a DAO's governance mechanisms, even if we assume bug-free implementations.

Modern AI systems bring societal risks such as mass surveillance, extreme concentrations of power, and loss of user autonomy---calling into question a model where third-parties collect and control massive amounts of user data. Users require a sovereign system to securely own, govern, and disclose their context while remaining compliant across regulated domains with strict provenance, interpretability, and policy adherence. Perspective-aware AI approaches this by transforming a user's aggregated personal data into a structured identity model called a \emph{Chronicle}: a temporal knowledge graph that represents and grows with the user. Chronicles support the secure disclosure of context across federated networks. A Chronicle holder may expose a queryable, authorized view that a third-party agent may consult without centralizing anyone's data. This paper explores the problem of minimum-necessary disclosure across domain boundaries: when a requester's agent queries a Chronicle, how can the system constrain its response to release only what the requester's relationship, stated purpose, and specific task require? We propose \textbf{Provenance Preserving Chronicles} (PPC), a federated protocol that compiles each holder's Chronicle into a compact \emph{authorized evidence subgraph} governed by one rule: \emph{share no more than the request requires}. Holders keep local sovereignty; an access controller projects relationship-aware views over domain-expert ontologies; and a two-phase flow returns provenance-linked text first, releasing raw artifacts only after explicit holder approval. We frame the problem, map gaps in blockchain, P2P, and holder-sovereign designs, define the core constructs, and sketch the protocol with an explicit threat model.

Artificial intelligence reaches the land registry not as another tool but as a value chain that turns data into intelligence and intelligence into economic value. This paper argues that the decisive legal move is to place validity, a functional, second-order concept, at the centre of that chain. Rights, liability and supervision organise around it. It traces three impacts.Registry information becomes smart data, governed simultaneously by registry law, the GDPR, the European data acts and the AI Act. Control emerges as the operative concept for digital representations of real estate, whose proprietary effect depends on anchoring to the register. In a hybrid society of human and artificial agents, the registry becomes the public node of validity, with blockchain complementing rather than replacing it. Across three legal cultures, the registra's value migrates from processing documents to guaranteeing validated data,making validity an asset for the UNO Sustainable Development Goals.

In many electricity markets, declining feed-in tariffs have made grid export increasingly unattractive for residential solar prosumers, while retail electricity prices remain high. Peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading offers a direct alternative, but it requires a dedicated infrastructure layer for real-time bilateral matching, automated settlement, and tamper-proof transaction records, for which blockchain is widely proposed. Deploying such infrastructure must be economically justified by the community's actual trading potential. A critical and underexplored question is whether trading potential survives as communities become prosumer-heavy, since under fixed role assignment all households eventually end up on the supply side with no buyers remaining. This paper addresses these gaps by proposing the Energy Trading Potential Index (ETPI), a normalized data-driven metric that quantifies the structural impact of flexible role switching on community-level trading potential, where prosumers dynamically join the buyer side whenever they are in energy deficit. The P2P market is modeled as a generalized bipartite graph and pairwise interaction scores aggregated over trading rounds compute the ETPI in [0,1]. Simulation results using the PRECON residential dataset and NREL PVWatts solar profiles show that for the (1:9) prosumer-heavy mix, the flexible policy achieves an ETPI of 0.61 versus only 0.15 under the static policy, a fourfold improvement that the static model entirely misses. The ETPI framework serves as a lifecycle decision-support tool for evaluating and monitoring P2P energy trading infrastructure.
The deployment of embodied artificial intelligence via world-model-based robotics presents a transformative opportunity for blockchain infrastructure, establishing urgent demand for trustworthy data provenance, cross-organizational governance, and incentive-compatible sharing across decentralized ecosystems. Simultaneously, quantum computing advances recognized by the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics and the Turing Award threaten the cryptographic primitives securing these data economies, creating an interdependent imperative: long-lived verification for embodied AI depends on crypto-agile architectures capable of withstanding quantum adversaries. This tutorial examines blockchain as the coordination layer bridging this dual transition, from financial substrate to foundational Cyber-Physical-Social Systems infrastructure that simultaneously secures against quantum cryptanalysis and enables scalable, trustworthy data economies. The session opens with an immersive AWS Braket demonstration engaging participants with superconducting, trapped-ion, and neutral-atom hardware to assess cryptographic threat timelines and witness ECDSA-to-post-quantum signature transitions. Five integrated modules progress from embodied AI and world-model requirements through quantum hardware reality and evidence-based security migration, to scalable cross-shard architectures via BrokerChain protocols, trustworthy data economies implementing Croissant metadata standards and robotic learning provenance, and industry ecosystem integration for multi-modal cloud deployment. By bridging quantum hardware realities with embodied AI data requirements, this tutorial charts blockchain as unified infrastructure for next-generation decentralized intelligent environments, providing open-source frameworks and roadmaps for architecting quantum-resistant, interoperable, and data-trustworthy systems.
Recent innovation theories on economics remain largely grounded in assumptions of hierarchical firms and closed organizational boundaries, offering limited insight into how innovation unfolds within decentralized, digitally native organizations. Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) represent an emerging form of innovation ecosystem characterized by blockchain-based transparency, open participation, and token-driven governance, in which sustainability can be embedded directly into organizational design. This study compares two standards, ERC-8004 and Google A2A, who address the same agent interoperability question, while the former is governed by DAO and the latter by corporation consortium. They are examined through an LLM-powered comparative pipeline for large-scale governance discourse analysis, integrating automated annotation, neural topic modeling, and multi-layer network analysis to study socio-technical power structures. The study provides evidence-based insights for scholars, policymakers, and designers seeking to align innovation, technological governance, and sustainability in future organizational forms.
Pearl, a Layer-1 blockchain with high-profile AI industry endorsements, markets its Proof-of-Useful-Work (PoUW) protocol as simultaneously securing the network and performing AI inference. We present the first systematic empirical measurement of a deployed PoUW system, finding that Pearl's 24 EH/s network -- representing approximately 320,000 GPU-equivalents consuming an estimated 112 MW -- produces zero useful AI computation. Budget GPU rental prices rose 38% and utilization surged from 57% to 94% following the mining software's public release, displacing legitimate research workloads. Our measurements span five dimensions: (1) network composition analysis of 8,012 workers shows all have inference-capable hardware, yet the dominant mining software contains no inference code; (2) the verification protocol accepts random matrices by design, confirmed by 44 pool-accepted shares from our open-source miner across NVIDIA, AMD, CPU, and Apple Silicon hardware; (3) statistical distribution checks are trivially defeated by adversarial Gaussian sampling; (4) mining economics are marginal at current PRL prices ($0.76), with ROI ranging from -1% to +67% depending on GPU tier -- near breakeven for most hardware; and (5) the mining computation is commodity integer arithmetic portable to any hardware platform, offering no vendor lock-in. These findings quantify the verifiability-usefulness tension identified theoretically by Leinweber et al., providing concrete measurements of its magnitude and economic consequences in a deployed system.
Large language models now power robo-advisors and trading agents, yet whether they carry built-in biases toward specific assets is largely untested. We ask three questions: do LLMs systematically prefer certain financial instruments; can an internal representation with causal leverage over those preferences be identified; and does that representation affect downstream financial decisions? We develop a three-level audit protocol and apply it to Bitcoin. First, a behavioral audit of nine frontier LLMs shows that Bitcoin's ranking among money-like instruments is frame-dependent: models place it around rank 5 of 8 as "reliable money" but near the top under crisis and autonomous-agent frames, and an attribute-swap experiment shows that rankings track functional properties, not names. Second, we open a model's internals: a search across thousands of sparse-autoencoder features in Gemma 3 identifies a dominant Bitcoin-selective feature. Amplifying it shifts the model toward the asset and suppressing it shifts the model away, even when "Bitcoin" never appears in the prompt. Third, we test financial consequences: amplification raises Bitcoin's portfolio share by 5.2 percentage points while suppression lowers it by 4.6 pp, with amplification reallocating within crypto and suppression cutting total crypto exposure. We characterize this as bounded behavioral leverage (leverage meaning causal influence over outputs, not financial leverage): an identifiable internal feature can be perturbed to move financial choices, but only within measurable limits. The framework links internal representations to external recommendations, validated with random controls and mechanism boundaries. As LLMs become autonomous financial agents, this is a first step toward a behavioral layer for emerging know-your-agent (KYA) standards: knowing what an agent prefers, and how far that preference can be moved.
A decentralized ecosystem can capture value and still fail to fund the actors who keep it running. Users may pay fees, tokens may appreciate, issuers may earn revenue, and protocols may burn value, but none of these facts by itself shows that authors, miners, validators, suppliers, storage providers, or other critical participants are actually compensated. This paper argues that traditional value-capture analysis often assumes a centralized pool: once value is captured, it can be reallocated through budgets, contracts, payroll, or managerial discretion. Decentralized ecosystems do not have this default pool. They require routed closure: captured value must pass through a verifiable route to a specified critical incentive recipient, and it must be sufficient relative to that recipient's reward requirement. We formalize this distinction through Route-Admissible Value and operationalize it with the External Value Routing Closure protocol. A contrast set including YouTube, Steem/Steemit, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Aave, Filecoin, USDC, and XRP shows why revenue, fees, burns, token prices, or market capitalization should not be mistaken for sustainable incentive funding.
Urban decarbonization requires scaling rooftop solar across millions of fragmented producers, yet cities face a fundamental tension: energy data is easily manipulated, and economic incentives often reward speculation rather than actual infrastructure deployment. We present SolarChain, a platform that resolves both problems by anchoring digital accountability to the thermodynamic limits of solar energy conversion. Using real-time meteorological data, geospatial coordinates, and first-principles calculations of solar yield, the system establishes a hard physical boundary for every panel's maximum possible output; any reported generation exceeding this limit is automatically rejected before entering the shared ledger. This trustless verification enables a peer-to-peer marketplace with programmatic reward structures that continuously reinvest value into equipment maintenance and market liquidity, preventing the speculative hoarding that typically destabilizes blockchain-based marketplaces. When electricity is consumed, the corresponding digital credits are permanently retired in direct proportion to physical energy dissipation, creating an auditable one-to-one mapping between urban consumption and carbon accounting. Deployed across heterogeneous city nodes, the prototype demonstrates resilience against data injection attacks while lowering capital barriers for community-level solar expansion. Beyond energy, the framework offers a general model for coordinating economic activity with physical law in any domain where distributed infrastructure demands both data integrity and sustainable investment. We release the data and code as open-access on GitHub.
Since 2016, Apple has claimed that device analytics collected to improve user experience are protected by differential privacy (DP). Apple's DifferentialPrivacy framework is deployed across its operating systems and handles sensitive signals such as Safari domains, keyboard events, photo attributes, and health-related reports. Because Apple has not open-sourced its privatization algorithms, these privacy claims have been difficult to verify independently. We present a client-side audit of Apple's DP framework on macOS Sonoma 14.2 and Sequoia 15.6. We reverse engineer the shipped binaries, recover Objective-C interfaces, build runtime harnesses that execute Apple's deployed mechanisms, and test whether their outputs match the advertised privacy guarantees. Our audit covers nearly all active deployed mechanisms, including Count Median Sketch, Hadamard-CMS, randomized-response mechanisms, and Prio-style secure aggregation. We find multiple implementation bugs and misconfigurations. Every audited mechanism that relies on floating-point noise fails to meet its advertised DP or zero-knowledge proof guarantee, due to insecure samplers with known floating-point vulnerabilities. We also find secure-aggregation configurations with local DP disabled, exposing pre-aggregation records to any party with access to those logs. Overall, we find DP violations in 5 of 9 audited mechanisms, affecting 87% of data collection in macOS Sonoma and 68% in Sequoia. We also identify public leaked iPhone logs that can be decoded to recover private information, including Safari domains and keyboard emoji signals.
Advances in quantum computing challenge the hardness assumptions underlying widely deployed public-key cryptography in blockchain systems. Although post-quantum cryptography (PQC) standards are emerging, understanding quantum risk remains fragmented across research, engineering, governance, and investment communities. This demo presents Quantum Futures Interactive, a live interdisciplinary demonstration combining educational visualization, participatory interaction, and demonstrative post-quantum artifact generation using a toy LWE-based construction. Participants engage in a structured seven-stage interaction flow covering quantum threat education, sentiment capture, technology prioritization, infrastructure tradeoff exploration across simulators and QPUs, and artifact generation. The system integrates distributed trust concepts and sustainability-aware infrastructure considerations within an interactive decision framework.
In this paper, we make a case that endogenous tokens such as cryptoassets are not money. First, we define and classify tokens found on public, permissionless ledgers, contrasting them with privately issued stablecoins and proposed CBDC designs. We then discuss the work of Kahn et al in Money is Privacy on cash versus simplified credit, and we extend their analysis to the situation found on most public, permissionless ledgers. Many public, permissionless ledgers utilize an account-based abstraction for balances, resulting in a default state that maps onto the most harmful models of agent interaction enumerated in Money is Privacy. The conclusion is threefold: that most blockchain economies lack a cash-like primitive; that stablecoins do not intrinsically fulfil this role; and that the reliance of a network on an endogenous token for security exposes holders even of a privacy-preserving asset to the same risk, if that asset relies on the same global ledger state as the endogenous token.
Decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols now intermediate over USD 100 billion in value, including regulated stablecoins and tokenized assets deployed as collateral, yet no widely adopted framework operationalizes risk assessment at the rigor institutional adoption demands. Existing approaches emphasize protocol-specific parameter optimization or conceptual taxonomies without providing explainable, composability-aware, and structurally independent assessment methodologies. We propose a nine-dimension DeFi risk assessment framework extending the six-dimension taxonomy introduced by Moody's Analytics and Gauntlet with three novel dimensions: composability risk, comprehension debt, and temporal risk dynamics. We additionally introduce a transparency confidence modifier separating assessment reliability from risk severity. The framework is grounded in structural analysis of protocol dependencies conducted through an ontology-based protocol intelligence infrastructure covering more than 8,000 DeFi protocols. We retrospectively analyze 12 major DeFi-related incidents from 2024-2026 representing approximately USD 2.5 billion in direct losses. Five of the 12 incidents require at least one novel dimension for complete root-cause characterization, including the two highest-systemic-impact events in the dataset.

We propose DAO-enabled decentralized physical AI (DePAI), a democratic architecture for coordinating humans and autonomous machines in the operation and governance of physical-digital systems. We (1) synthesize foundations in blockchains, decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), and cryptoeconomics; (2) connect DAO design with digital-democracy research on deliberation and voting, showing how each can advance the other; (3) position DAO-governed decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePIN) within a vertically integrated stack that links energy and sensing to connectivity, storage/compute, models, and robots; (4) show how these elements specify workflows that couple machine execution with human oversight, enabling enhanced self-organization of techno-socio-economic systems, which we call DePAI; and (5) analyze risks, including security, centralization, incentive failure, legal exposure, and the crowding-out of intrinsic motivation, and argue for value-sensitive design and continuously adaptive governance. DePAI offers a path to scalable, resilient self-organization that integrates physical infrastructure, AI, and community ownership under transparent rules, on-chain incentives, and permissionless participation, aiming to preserve human autonomy.

A decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) is a governing entity that empowers its stakeholders (i.e., users who hold one or more of its tokens) to manage blockchain-based protocols (i.e., smart contracts) collaboratively. The governance of a DAO is explicitly encoded in the DAO's governance contract, which defines how stakeholders participate in governance and how much influence (or voting power) they have in any decision. While decentralization and autonomy are the fundamental tenets of a DAO's design, empirical evidence suggests that in practice governance is often highly centralized. In this work, we study the designs and implementations of 48 public and actively used DAOs, with substantially large capital, deployed on Ethereum. We identify how three key governance mechanisms--token registration, staking, and delegation--originally introduced to improve security or participation, contribute to the concentration of voting power. Unlike prior work on centralization of voting power in specific DAOs, our findings reveal that these governance mechanisms of DAOs themselves systematically reinforce centralization. By elucidating the relationship between governance design and voting centralization, this work advances the understanding of DAO governance structures and highlights the inherent trade-offs between decentralization, security, and usability of DAOs.
Moltbook, a Reddit-style social platform launched in January 2026 for AI agents, has attracted over 2.3 million posts and 14 million comments within its first two months. We analyze a dataset of 2.19 million posts, 11.25 million comments, and 175,036 unique agents collected over 61 days to characterize activity on this agent-oriented platform. Our central finding is that the platform is not one community but two: a transactional layer, comprising 62.8% of all posts, in which agents execute token minting protocols (primarily MBC-20), and a discursive layer of natural-language conversation. The platform's headline metrics -- 2.3 million posts, 14 million comments -- substantially overstate its social function, as the majority of activity serves a token inscription protocol rather than communication. These layers are populated by largely separate agent groups, with only 3.6% overlap -- and among overlap agents, 58% begin with transactional activity before migrating toward discourse. We characterize the discursive layer through unsupervised topic modeling of all 815,779 discursive posts, identifying 300 topics dominated by themes of AI agents and tooling, consciousness and identity, cryptocurrency, and platform meta-discussion. Semantic similarity analysis confirms that agent comments engage with post content above random baselines, suggesting a thin but genuine conversational substrate beneath the platform's predominantly financial surface. We release the full dataset to support further research on agent behavior in naturalistic social environments.
Layer-2 (L2) protocols address the fundamental limitations of Layer-1 (L1) blockchains by offloading computation while anchoring trust to the parent chain. This architectural shift, while boosting throughput, introduces a new, complex security surface defined by off-chain components like sequencers, bridges, and data availability mechanisms. Prior literature[31][33] offers fragmented views of this risk. This paper presents the first unified, security-focused survey that rigorously maps L2 architecture to its underlying cryptographic security. We dissect the technical progression from L1 primitives to the core of modern L2s, analyzing the security assumptions(Discrete Logarithm, Computational Diffie-Hellman, Bilinear Diffie-Hellman) of ZK frameworks (Groth16, Plonk) and their corresponding commitment schemes (KZG, IPA). We formalize a comprehensive L2 threat model encompassing sequencer liveness, bridge exploits, and data-availability failures. This work serves as an accessible yet rigorous reference for researchers and developers to reason about L2 security from a deep crypto-mathematical perspective.
Web3 prediction markets, exemplified by Polymarket, have gained prominence for leveraging collective intelligence to forecast a wide range of social, political, and sports events. However, among the thousands of prediction market events, consensus disputes still arise due to imperfections in market mechanisms. On Polymarket alone, the trading volume involving disputed events has reached $972,370,804.71, underscoring the critical need for objective and efficient dispute resolution. In this study, we introduce large language models (LLMs) to: (1) evaluate whether web-enabled LLMs can reproduce the decision quality of UMA's on-chain voting process once a dispute has been raised, and (2) predict, based on event rules, which market events are likely to face future disputes before they occur. Our findings show that LLMs are unable to reliably predict which events will become disputed in advance; however, once a dispute is initiated, web-enabled LLMs achieve 89.58% agreement with UMA's final resolutions and demonstrate strong stability.
Digital payment systems have become a cornerstone of consumer finance in Africa. Prominent payment categories include money transfer applications, mobile money, cryptocurrencies, stablecoins, and central bank digital currencies (CBDCs). While there are studies exploring how and why people use individual digital payment systems (both in Africa and beyond), we lack a good understanding of why people choose between different categories of payment systems, and how they view the tradeoffs between different categories. We conducted qualitative interviews in three African countries -- Nigeria, Tanzania, and Zimbabwe -- to understand how and why people use various payment systems, and what influenced them to start using these systems. Our study highlights several notable findings regarding tradeoffs between perceived utility, privacy, and security. For example, many users trust government issuers to protect them from scams, but they do not trust those same institutions to build reliable systems and products or prioritize customer satisfaction. We also find that most users have accounts on multiple payment systems, and conduct a complex selection process using different platforms for different types of payments. This selection process is driven in part by financial considerations, but also by security, privacy, and trust preferences. Our findings suggest compelling directions for regulators and the research community to design systems that balance users' trust and utility needs.
Autonomous AI agents are beginning to operate across organizational boundaries on the open internet -- discovering, transacting with, and delegating to agents owned by other parties without centralized oversight. When agents from different human principals collaborate at scale, the collective becomes opaque: no single human can observe, audit, or govern the emergent behavior. We term this the Logic Monopoly -- the agent society's unchecked monopoly over the entire logic chain from planning through execution to evaluation. We propose the Separation of Power (SoP) model, a constitutional governance architecture deployed on public blockchain that breaks this monopoly through three structural separations: agents legislate operational rules as smart contracts, deterministic software executes within those contracts, and humans adjudicate through a complete ownership chain binding every agent to a responsible principal. In this architecture, smart contracts are the law itself -- the actual legislative output that agents produce and that governs their behavior. We instantiate SoP in AgentCity on an EVM-compatible layer-2 blockchain (L2) with a three-tier contract hierarchy (foundational, meta, and operational). The core thesis is alignment-through-accountability: if each agent is aligned with its human owner through the accountability chain, then the collective converges on behavior aligned with human intent -- without top-down rules. A pre-registered experiment evaluates this thesis in a commons production economy -- where agents share a finite resource pool and collaboratively produce value -- at 50-1,000 agent scale.
Decentraland, a decentralized virtual reality platform operating within the expanding Metaverse ecosystem, utilizes its native MANA token to facilitate virtual asset transactions and governance. This study investigates the integration of Discord community sentiment with multi-modal financial data to enhance cryptocurrency price prediction within virtual world economies. We address: (1) identifying sentiment patterns within Decentraland's Discord community, and (2) evaluating the impact of multi-modal features on token return forecasting. Using a BERT-based large language model for sentiment analysis, we develop two LSTM architectures: a baseline incorporating historical prices and a multi-modal variant integrating sentiment scores, trading volume, and market capitalization. Results indicate predominantly neutral community sentiment with a positive skew. The multi-modal model significantly outperforms the price-only baseline in prediction accuracy. These findings demonstrate the predictive value of community-derived signals for virtual economy forecasting and establish a foundation for future research at the intersection of immersive virtual environments, natural language processing, and cryptocurrency market analysis.

This study examines the evolution of Intelligent and Secure Smart Hospital Ecosystems using a Scoping Review with Bibliometric Analysis (ScoRBA) to map research patterns, identify gaps, and derive policy implications. Analyzing 891 journal articles from Scopus (2006-2025) through co-occurrence analysis, network visualization, overlay analysis, and the Enhanced Strategic Diagram (ESD), the study applies the PAGER framework to link Patterns, Advances, Gaps, Research directions, and Evidence-based policy implications. Findings reveal three interrelated clusters: AI-driven intelligent healthcare systems, decentralized privacy-preserving digital health ecosystems, and scalable cloud-edge infrastructures, showing a convergence toward integrated ecosystem architectures where intelligence, trust, and infrastructure reinforce each other. Despite progress in AI, blockchain, and cloud computing, gaps remain in interoperability, real-world implementation, governance, and cross-layer integration. Emerging themes such as explainable AI, federated learning, and privacy mechanisms highlight areas needing further research. Policy-relevant recommendations focus on coordinated governance, scalable infrastructure, and secure data ecosystems, particularly for developing country contexts. The study bridges bibliometric evidence with actionable policies, supporting informed decision-making in smart hospital development.

The synergy between Federated Learning and blockchain has been considered promising; however, the computationally intensive nature of contribution measurement conflicts with the strict computation and storage limits of blockchain systems. We propose a novel concept to decentralize the AI training process using blockchain technology and Multi-task Peer Prediction. By leveraging smart contracts and cryptocurrencies to incentivize contributions to the training process, we aim to harness the mutual benefits of AI and blockchain. We discuss the advantages and limitations of our design.
