PhD Tomasz Tomczak LL.M., LL.M.’s Post

The Certificate of Advanced Studies (CAS) in Blockchain by the University of Zurich is here. Starting on September 6, 2024, the CAS in #Blockchain will cover the fundamentals of #blockchaintechnology. On the second day, learn from Dr Daniele Dell'Aglio, Associate Professor at Aalborg University, and Prof. Dr Abraham Bernstein, Head of the Dynamic and Distributed Information Systems Group at the University of Zurich, as they provide an in-depth lecture on Smart Contracts. Topics include: - What is a Smart Contract? - Why Smart Contracts? - How do Smart Contracts Work? - State-machine in UTXO - Use Case with Marlowe The lecture will be followed by a hands-on session on Smart Contracts.

We are thrilled to announce that Krzysztof Gogol, a PhD student at the UZH Blockchain Center, presented his paper at the 5th International Conference on Mathematical Research for the Blockchain Economy (MARBLE 2024) and won the Best Paper Award! 🎉 The paper, "Liquid Staking Tokens in Automated Market Makers," was co-authored by Robin Fritsch, Malte Schlosser, Johnnatan Messias, PhD, Benjamin Kraner, and Prof. Claudio J. Tessone. It offers a deep dive into the theoretical and empirical analysis of liquid staking tokens (LSTs) within automated market makers (AMMs). The research explores key aspects such as suitable AMM types for LST liquidity and the necessary trading fees to compensate liquidity providers. It also examines the profitability of LST liquidity compared to holding or staking the assets, with significant findings that challenge the sustainability of current LST liquidity practices.

Excited to share our latest research paper titled "A Token Economy Governance Model", published as part of Springer! Abstract: Governance in the blockchain context revolves around mechanisms that allow decentralized systems to evolve in time. The paper proposes a conceptual goal model for a token economy governance structure (TEGS). This was accomplished by completing a narrative review of existing literature from various academic databases. The findings of the review result in a seven-step TEGS goal model that includes: defining the governance areas and stakeholders, defining the level of decentralization, defining on-chain or off-chain mechanisms and desired voting mechanism properties, defining core voting mechanisms and support mechanisms for voting. Future research will incorporate technical specifications about best code-writing and quantitative parameters for voting mechanisms. #tokeneconomics #governance #decentralization #dapps

📢 We are excited to announce that Prof. Claudio J. Tessone and Dr Jianhong Lin from the UZH Blockchain Center will serve as Special Issue Editors for MDPI Electronics Journal (ISSN 2079-9292) on the topic "Complex Networks and Applications in Blockchain-Based Networks." This special issue explores how complex networks intersect with #blockchaintechnology, including topics like #blockchain network analysis, dynamics in decentralized finance (#DeFi), #cryptoeconomics, and more. The issue aims to present novel research bridging theory and practical applications in blockchain environments. 📅 Deadline for manuscript submissions: May 15, 2025.

The paper titled ‘Can Blockchain Prevent the Deterioration of Building Handover Information Quality for Higher Education Institutions?’  is a collaborative work by Klaudia Jaskula (ESR8) and Janet Chang, MSt (Cantab), MBA (ESR 9) and published in the Built Environment Project and Asset Management journal. As a key element of the CBIM Work Package 3, the research was directed by Professor Ajith Kumar Parlikad at the University of Cambridge and supervised by Drs Eleni Papadonikolaki at Delft University of Technology and Dimitrios Rovas at UCL. This research signifies an exclusive collaboration within Work Package 3 of the CBIM program. In their publications, the researchers explore the potential of blockchain technology as a strategic defence against the deterioration of building handover information quality, specifically within the context of higher education institutions. The investigation is grounded in empirical evidence to address prevalent information quality challenges, offering a comprehensive analysis across multiple case studies. 👉 For more information, please check here: https://lnkd.in/eTWvkjS9 #CBIM #Blockchain #Asset information quality #Higher education institutes

We look forward to seeing our Chief of Staff, Juan Ignacio Ibañez, share his expertise at the 10th European Blockchain Convention! Juan’s keynote on 'MiCA, Sustainability, and Compliance' will shed light on the vital role industry collaboration plays in creating a compliant, sustainable future for crypto assets. At DLT Science Foundation, we’re committed to driving innovation and sustainable solutions in blockchain. Don’t miss the opportunity to learn from his experience and explore how MiCA can be a catalyst for increased transparency, and enhanced comparability and sustainability in the industry. #MiCA #Blockchain #Sustainability #CryptoCompliance #EBC10

UZH Blockchain Center New Publication alert! We are happy to share the recent publication "Tokenization of the Common: An Economic Model of Multidimensional Incentives" by Benjamin Kraner, Nicolo' Vallarano, and Claudio J. Tessone, was published in ACM MIDDLEWARE'23 conference proceedings. "The concept of the tragedy of the commons, originally rooted in economics, describes the depletion of shared resources due to self-interested actions by individuals. This work proposes a novel solution to address this economic challenge by leveraging tokens to capture its multidimensional nature. By utilising #blockchain and #DLTs, this #decentralised approach aims to achieve a social optimum while promoting self-regulation. The paper presents a mathematical treatment of the tragedy of the commons, incorporating multi-dimensional #tokens and exploring the divergence from the classic optimal solution, highlighting the potential of #tokenisation in shaping a sustainable and efficient #economy."
