Közös dokumentumszerkesztés okosszerződésekkel

Máté Zsolt Nagy

A második generációs blokkláncokon élő „smart contractok”, avagy okosszerződések egyre gyakrabban használt eszközök különböző problémák decentralizált megoldásához. Habár leggyakrabban a DeFi (decentralized finance, avagy decentralizált pénzügyek) területén használják, máshol is alkalmazhatóak, mint például ellenőrizhető szavazások vagy árverések. Egyre több és több okosszerződést használnak különféle területeken, mint például új kriptovaluták implementálásához egy létező blokkláncon, vagy automatikus pénzváltók üzemeltetéséhez. Az Ethereumot éppen ezért gyakran hívják "programozható pénznek". Az Ethereumon az EVM bájtkódjában lévő programok futnak. Ezeket sokféle nyelvből lehet fordítani, de az egyik első és legismertebb az a Solidity, amely kifejezetten okosszerződések írásához lett kifejlesztve. A szakdolgozat tárgya egy olyan okosszerződés létrehozása Solidity nyelv és keretrendszer segítségével, amellyel meg lehet osztani és közösen módosítani dokumentumokat. A szerződés célja még a: – Nyomonkövethetőség (ki, mikor, mit módosított) – Bizalmasság (ki olvashatja a tartalmat) – Hozzáféréskezelés (ki módosíthatja a tartalmat)

Beyond Bitcoin: Understanding Legal Boundaries of Blockchain Technology

Alessio Di Amato, Vincenzo Orsini

The current legal uncertainty surrounding blockchain technology can discourage innovators from implementing new blockchain applications. Consequently, it can limitthe development ofthe technology and, ultimately, hinderthe growth ofthis new market. Therefore,this article aims to highlight and address, from a practical standpoint, the prominent legal challenges faced by innovators. The main technical components and applications of blockchain technology – such as crypto-assets, distributed ledgers, and smart contracts – are used as reference points for the analysis. First, the article classifies crypto-assets and specifies (1) when they fall within the scope of banking and finance regulation; and (2) when they fall within the scope ofthe MiCa Regulation proposal (also describing its principles and functioning). Secondly, it investigates the evidential value of distributed ledgers, assesses how they could be exploited in private law matters, and examines the recent proposal of amendment to the eIDAS Regulation. Lastly, it clarifies under which conditions a smart contract can be legally binding and the practical consequences.

Smart contracts from the viewpoint of diffusion of innovation theory

A. A. Shpakova

Introduction: smart contracts helps solve the problems of intercorporate interaction by providing the possibility of fast and secure automatic transactions. However, the development and application of this digital technology are prevented by a number of factors. Their analysis from the viewpoint of diffusion of innovation theory will allow developing a strategy for managing the growth of this technology. Objectives: to determine the state policy directions in the field of regulation and use of smart contracts based on the systematization of factors that prevent their wide diffusion, and assessment of the influence of key actors associated with the development of this technology. Methods: meta-analysis of studies, survey of 170 Russian companies, comparative analysis, statics and dynamics method, formal-logical method. Results: the article defines the position of smart contracts on the diffusion curve for Russian companies, and systematizes the factors that prevent the wide diffusion of smart contracts by taking into account the characteristics of innovations. Further, the influence of key actors on the diffusion process has been assessed. The state policy directions in the field of regulation and use of smart contracts are determined. Conclusions: in Russia, the only users of smart contracts tend to be innovators and early adopters, while the key factors for diffusion are the characteristics of relative advantage, organizational and institutional compatibility, and risks related to using the technology. The average level of influence of technology developers, the regulator (state authorities) and companies on the diffusion process is approximately the same. The priorities of state policy in the field of regulation and use of smart contracts should be to provide conditions for organizational and institutional compatibility of innovation, reduce the legal risks of using this digital technology, and train personnel.

Smart contracts: A short journey into the future of consumer contracts

Cristina Poncibò

The smart contract is a computer program that facilitates the automation of processes related to human bargaining. e topic is receiving some attention in doctrine perhaps by virtue of its curious name and perhaps because the concept is closely linked to the idea of the automation of law, a hotly debated topic. Having said that, it is not clear whether this innovation will be fully applied in the next few years in the field of consumer mass bargaining. On the one hand, the issue lends itself to an initial reflection on the evolution of the standardisation of consumer contracts in the global and digital economy. Our hypothesises is the smart contract constitutes a form of 'extreme standardisation' of consumer contracts, or rather, of their total or partial execution. is form is immediately very particular and critical for the interpreter, since it is intimately linked to the technological medium (i.e. Blockchain technology) and straddles the digital world and the real one. On the other hand, the paper considers whether the automation process, which is fully realised by the smart contract after the advent of electronic commerce and digital platforms, will be an opportunity to reduce the costs of justice in consumer disputes, or, on the contrary, will constitute a risk to consumer freedoms.

To the problem of the civil-legal concept of cryptocurrency: its definition and qualifying features

ALES KONTSEVOY

The article examines the economic and legal nature of cryptocurrency as an object of civil rights. The article analyzes the current problems of the civil law mechanism for fulfilling obligations in the sphere of digital rights turnover. The system of characteristic features of the cryptocurrency is revealed. To clarify and integrate doctrinal, legislative and law enforcement approaches, the author proposes a definition of cryptocurrency based on its qualifying features. The author defines cryptocurrency as a transferable complex thing within a given specific digital system, which is characterized by both material signs of money, currency values and information, and legally significant qualities of the property, digital and intellectual rights, and intangible benefits (business reputation). Currently, it is necessary to sыolve the problem with the lack of theoretical, legislative, and law enforcement approach to the concept of cryptocurrency and the systematization of its qualifying features. The legal definition of cryptocurrency will serve as a methodological basis for the effective legal regulation of relations both in the specialized market of digital financial instruments and relations in the rapidly developing sphere of digital rights, which is necessary for economic growth and serves as an institutional basis for the digital economy and the state.
