    Crowdfunding and the role of blockchains - crowdfunding, now enhanced by the adoption of blockchain technology, offers greater transparency, global reach and reduced costs. Blockchain enables secure transactions, smart contracts and fractional ownership, so democratising access to funding for entrepreneurs. And, whilst challenges such as regulatory uncertainty and market volatility exist, blockchain-powered crowdfunding has the potential to create a more equitable and community-driven financial ecosystem. Full Article Here The battle for the soul of decentralisation - recent growth in Web3 has sparked discussions over the true meaning of decentralisation - that is, how did the once-idealistic vision of user autonomy become twisted with centralisation? Technologies such as blockchain promise more control, yet many decentralised platforms now rely on centralised systems. So, have convenience and regulatory pressure compromised the original vision and how can Web 3 balance innovation with compliance as governments increasingly regulate digital assets? And, with large companies controlling critical aspects of blockchain, are we witnessing “decentralisation theatre”? Finally, will the future of Web3 restore decentralisation’s soul, or will it continue to bend under external pressures? These are just some of the questions at the heart of this ongoing struggle. Full Article Here Memecoins - harmless fun or a minefield of scams? - memecoins, such as Dogecoin, blend internet culture, humour and finance, gaining popularity in the crypto space. But, whilst they offer fun and speculative profits, many lack intrinsic value, relying on community hype. This volatility has led to scams such as “pump-and-dump” schemes where prices are artificially inflated before crashing, whereby leaving investors at a loss; Platforms such as Pump.fun and SunPump fuel this trend by enabling easy token creation. Meanwhile, as memecoins raise questions about value and market behaviour, they also pose significant risks whereby challenging traditional trust mechanisms and highlighting the speculative nature of digital finance in the modern age. Full Article Here Decentralising justice in Latin America: how Kleros and blockchain are revolutionising dispute resolution in Argentina and Mexico - one of the things that lawyers and crypto enthusiasts have in common is their enjoyment of theorising and attempting to solve seemingly impossible, almost metaphysical problems. Without a doubt, the idea of applying the infrastructure behind Bitcoin to resolve simple legal issues in the online world is a concept that would fascinate both groups. Full Article Here

    Digital money and gig economy (Part 2) - the gig economy, supported by platforms such Uber and Upwork, is transforming traditional work by emphasising short-term, flexible jobs. Digital money, particularly cryptocurrencies, is further reshaping this space by enabling fast, borderless payments and offering financial inclusion. However, challenges such as currency volatility and regulatory uncertainty persist. Yet, despite these hurdles, digital currencies have the potential to create a more efficient and inclusive global labour market within the evolving gig economy. Full Aritcle Here Demystifying non-liquidating accounts - the collapse of FTX has brought to light the critical risks associated with non-liquidating accounts which, despite their benefits, can pose significant threats to market stability if mismanaged. Whilst algorithmic stablecoins were a key factor, the overlooked impact of these accounts raises several pressing questions: How can crypto exchanges better manage the risks associated with non-liquidating accounts? What role should regulators play in ensuring transparency and accountability? Hence, understanding these elements is essential to prevent future crises and safeguard the long-term sustainability of the crypto industry. Full Aritcle Here Tokenised government bonds - tokenised government bonds are digital versions of traditional bonds issued on a blockchain, offering increased accessibility, liquidity and efficiency by enabling 24/7 trading with near-instant settlement times. They reduce the need for intermediaries whereby potentially lowering costs and democratising access to government debt markets. However, challenges such as regulatory uncertainty, technological infrastructure requirements and risks to financial stability must be addressed before they become mainstream. Tokenisation could significantly reshape financial markets, but its future depends on technological advances, regulatory developments and market adoption. Full Aritcle Here The nature and necessity of digital asset controls - digital assets are expected to reach up to $4 trillion in value in the next few years, therefore managing their security becomes crucial. Three key challenges are highlighted as a result: securing addresses, safeguarding private keys and understanding third-party entitlements (I.O.Us). The risks include potential fraud, inadequate insurance and reliance on custodians who may fail during financial crises. It is therefore vital for individuals and institutions to fully understand these risks, emphasising the importance of controlling one's own keys - ‘not your keys, not your assets’. Full Aritcle Here
