Abstract:
Advancements in cryptography and computer science have given birth to blockchain technology. One of the most exciting evolutions of blockchain is the advancements in smart contract technology. Smart contracts can be used for a broad range of use cases, not just financial transactions. Smart contract technology on the public blockchain, represented by Ethereum, due to its public and opaque nature, is not a good choice for many scenarios that do not require full disclosure, such as many IoT applications. On the other hand, the existing blockchain smart contract system still has a strong connection with virtual currency, which also limits its application in non-financial scenarios. In order to solve the above problems and explore more of the potential of smart contracts for the IoT application domain, this paper mainly explores the construction of a smart contract system based on consortium blockchains associated with no virtual currency. Based on the smart contract system designed in this project, blockchain can be more easily applied in payment, product traceability, authority authentication, and other fields. Through a certain centralized way, the system is easier to manage, can reduce the management expenditure, and the power and other resource consumption is less, which is conducive to environmental protection. Results show that our smart contract system has the potential for IoT usage in the future.

Abstract:
Blockchain technology is considered one of the most disruptive technologies of our times. At the same time, by means of smart contracts stored on a blockchain, all or parts of an agreement can be executed automatically upon certain triggering events. Some consider that with smart contracts becoming more and more complete and self-executing, we will enter into an era of dispute resolution without the involvement of a neutral third party (conciliator, mediator, arbitrator) or even an entirely dispute-free environment. By contrast, it is submitted that disputes are inevitable. The question is not whether disputes arise, but which means of dispute resolution are best suited to resolve disputes arising in the context of blockchains and smart contracts. While not the only mechanism, it is submitted that arbitration is particularly well-suited for many types of disputes and, if adapted to the specific expectations and needs of (enterprise) users of blockchains and smart contracts, may play a central role in a blockchain and smart contract environment. blockchain technology, smart contracts, distributed ledger technology, decentralization, disintermediation, oracles, automation, artificial intelligence, cryptocurrencies, NFTs, Kleros, digital dispute resolution

Abstract:
In the last 10 years the blockchain technology has become mainstream research topic because of its features that offers, as: decentralized system, peer to peer (P2P) transaction, distributed consensus, and anonymity properties. Also, the blockchain technology overshadows regulatory problem and technical challenges and one of the opportunities that offers the blockchain technology is the 'smart contract'. A smart contract is a set of programs that can be much better from the traditional contracts for some features which are self-verifying, self-executing and tamper resistant. Also, smart contract with the integration of blockchain technology without which cannot function, is capable of doing a task in real time with very low cost and provide a greater degree of high security level. The aim of this paper is to explain the concept of the smart contract and its components and function. The paper is aimed at presenting the issue of smart contract, blockchain technology. The specific focus was on the application of smart contracts in real estate.

Abstract:
With the growing utility of blockchain technology, the desire for reciprocal interactions among different blockchains is growing. However, most operational blockchain networks currently operate in a standalone setting. This fragmentation in the form of isolated blockchains creates interoperability difficulties, inhibiting the adoption of blockchains in various ecosystems. Interoperability is a key factor in the healthcare domain for sharing EHRs of patients registered in independent blockchain networks. Each blockchain network could have its own rules and regulations, obstructing the exchange of EHRs for improving diagnosis and treatments. Examples include patients being treated by healthcare providers in different countries or regions, or within one country but with a different set of rules per state or emirate. By contrast, a federation of blockchain networks can provide better communication and service to stakeholders in healthcare. Thus, solutions for facilitating inter-blockchain communication in such a blockchain federation are needed. However, this possibility has not been fully explored, and further investigations are still being conducted. Hence, the present study proposes a transaction-based smart contract triggering system for inter-blockchain communication, enabling EHR sharing among independent blockchains. We use local and global smart contracts that will be executed once a transaction is created in the blockchain. Local smart contracts are used for EHR sharing within the blockchain, whereas global smart contracts are used for EHR sharing among independent blockchains. The experimental setup is conducted using the Hyperledger Fabric blockchain platform. Inter-blockchain communication between two independent fabric networks is conducted through a global smart contract using Hyperledger Cactus for EHR sharing in a health federation setup. To the best of our knowledge, our study is the first to implement an inter-blockchain communication model in the healthcare domain.

Abstract:
Blockchain is a peer-to-peer distributed ledger technology that makes the records of any digital asset transparent and immutable and works without involving a third party. Hence, it is independent of a third party and termed as ‘decentralized’. Blockchain is an emerging technology and is gaining a lot of popularity, as it is scalable and also has the ability to manage risks. Blockchain is transforming the way value is exchanged, it has expanded technical capabilities to achieve a higher level of innovation and developer products. Blockchain is the most recent technology that can be adopted for data security. This paper aims to make any legal contracts, such as agreements, and property registries, as well as other assets in India using blockchain for solving issues like avoiding third parties, brokerage services, trusty transactions, etc. It makes it safer as well as non-repudiable. We are proposing a Web3 system that is providing a platform for both parties to make legal contracts using smart contracts and deploy it on blockchain to make safer contracts by inheriting blockchain properties. A smart contract is a digital contract that automatically executes the terms of an agreement by itself. In layman’s terms, it is a computer code that holds the terms of a contract. It stores in decentralized, distributed public blockchain networks that contracting parties can access from anywhere and at any time. With these designs, this digital type of contract runs on blockchain nodes that cannot be changed. This makes the smart contract legal contracting decentralized, free of brokerage services as well paperless that is digital. This solution demands transparency, participation and cooperation society demands. Hence, would help to obstruct corruption and make government services more efficient.

Abstract:
Enterprise blockchain solutions attempt to solve the crucial matter of user privacy, albeit that blockchain was initially directed towards full transparency. In the context of Know Your Customer (KYC) standardization, a decentralized schema that enables user privacy protection on enterprise blockchains is proposed with two types of developed smart contracts. Through the public KYC smart contract, a user registers and uploads their KYC information to the exploited IPFS storage, actions interpreted in blockchain transactions on the permissioned blockchain of Alastria Network. Furthermore, through the public KYC smart contract, an admin user approves or rejects the validity and expiration date of the initial user’s KYC documents. Inside the private KYC smart contract, CRUD (Create, read, update and delete) operations for the KYC file repository occur. The presented system introduces effectiveness and time efficiency of operations through its schema simplicity and smart integration of the different technology modules and components. This developed scheme focuses on blockchain technology as the most important and critical part of the architecture and tends to accomplish an optimal schema clarity.

Abstract:
Smart contracts are computer codes that represent contract terms and are designed to run on a blockchain platform, automatically enforced upon receiving predetermined inputs. This technological innovation, a key component of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, provides an advanced and innovative approach to executing contract terms. Incorporating this technology into Shariah-compliant contracts within Islamic Banks (IBs) holds the potential to reduce Shariah non-compliance risk (SNC) and enhance operational transparency, ensuring compatibility with contemporary technological applications. In particular, blockchain-based smart contracts have the potential to be integrated into the operations of IBs’ products that are based on tawarruq contracts. This study aims to investigate the potential application of blockchain-based smart contract technology in tawarruq contract operations within IBs and to suggest directions for future research. This study adopted a qualitative approach, drawing on relevant literature. The findings indicated that blockchain-based smart contracts can address Shariah Non-Compliance (SNC) issues in IB’s tawarruq operations while enhancing transaction transparency. This paper discussed the Shariah and operational challenges associated with blockchain technology and posits that blockchain-based smart contracts can improve the practices of tawarruq contracts within Islamic Banks. This paper offers insights for IB entities and regulatory authorities to evaluate the potential and impact of blockchain-based smart contracts within their operations and the broader financial system.

Abstract:
In recent years, blockchain technology has become a hot topic in various industries. With the development and maturity of blockchain technology, it has been applied to finance, law, etc., with its advantages of decentralization, openness, information security, and concealment. The application scenarios of industry are becoming more and more abundant. Compared with the traditional TPA payment contract form, the smart contract mechanism based on blockchain technology is obviously more efficient, convenient, and safe. Against this background, we design a smart payment contract suitable for cloud storage by studying Ethereum. The relationship clause in the smart payment contract should be regulated around the contract law. The smart contract payment linkage clause can be classified into three forms, including conditional effective type, contract joint type, and contract link type, which correspond to the contract law. Therefore, the contract legal system for smart contract payment linkage clauses should follow typified thinking. Based on blockchain technology, smart contracts not only reduce the number of interactions in contract execution but also allow users to stop paying for cloud services when data is lost or damaged. The precise method is to generate each node with a private chain and place the smart contract on the private chain. With the decentralization of the blockchain private chain, the advantages of read-only data, and traceability of information, the storage of smart payment contract data is more secure. Both parties to the transaction are more trustworthy. Therefore, the proposed system has a safe and efficient smart contract payment mechanism, which brings a good user experience to users, which proves the significance and value of this research.

Abstract: This research paper explores the emerging field of crowdfunding and its integration with blockchain technology. Crowdfunding has gained significant traction as a viable alternative to traditional funding methods, empowering entrepreneurs and innovators to raise capital directly from the public. However, this fundraising model is not without its limitations, including issues of trust, transparency, and intermediaries' control over the process. In recent years, blockchain technology has emerged as a potential solution to address these challenges. Blockchain's inherent properties of transparency, immutability, and decentralization offer promising opportunities for transforming the crowdfunding landscape. This research paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the benefits and challenges associated with implementing blockchain in crowdfunding. It examines real-world use cases and discusses how blockchain enhances transparency, mitigates fraud risks, reduces transaction costs, and enables global participation. Furthermore, it explores the potential impact of blockchain on crowdfunding ecosystems, including its implications for investors, entrepreneurs, and regulatory frameworks.

Abstract:
When economic agents have private information, the agents will be incentivised to use this information advantage by acting in a manner that does not always coincide with production and social efficiency, or the interests of the principal. This thesis investigates details specific to designing a contract with blockchain technology and smart contracts that consistently elicit efficiency and good behaviour with the best possible outcome for participating agents. We use the lens of the principal agent theory to show that implementing blockchain technology and smart contracts in contractual agreements can alleviate problems associated with information asymmetry that arise when one party holds its information private. Information asymmetry has a significant economic impact in principal agent relationships.

Abstract:
Under de senaste åren har blockchain-tekniken fått mer och mer uppmärksamhet. Det har visat speciella fördelar i digital valuta, eftersom det distribueras och dess data inte kan ändras. Med fler länder som presenterar idén om kraftsysteminnovationen har ett stort antal distribuerade kraftkällor dykt upp. Nätanslutningen för dessa distribuerade kraftkällor leder till instabil nätdrift och ökar svårigheten att hantera kraftigt. Därför finns det ett akut behov av en lösning som kan realisera direkt transaktion av distribuerad kraftförsörjning. Denna artikel gör en fördjupad analys av blockchain-tekniken, inklusive hasalgoritm, konsensusmekanism, Merkle-träd, smart kontrakt etc. Och sedan studeras Ethereum och smarta nät. Den här artikeln realiserar automatisering och intelligens för mätning av eltransaktioner genom smart kontraktsteknik som tillhandahålls av Ethereum. En blockchain privat kedja skapas och sedan distribueras det smarta kontraktet i den privata kedjan. Med fördelarna med blockchaintekniken ovan kommer lagring av kraftdata och krafttransaktioner att vara mer trovärdig och mer transparent. Sammantaget designar och bygger detta papper ett smart grid-system baserat på blockchain-smarta teknik. Systemet kan inte bara användas för smarta nätsystem utan även för andra energisystem. Denna artikel ger en referens för tillämpning av blockchain-teknik.<br>In recent years, blockchain technology has received more and more attention. It has shown special advantages in digital currency, because it is distributed and its data cannot be altered. With more countries put forward the idea of the power system innovation, a large number of distributed power sources have emerged.

Therefore, there is an urgent need for a solution that can realize direct transaction of distributed power supply. This article makes an in-depth analysis of the blockchain technology, including hash algorithm, consensus mechanism, Merkle tree, smart contract, etc. And then the Ethereum and smart grids are studied. This article realizes automation and intelligence of the electricity transaction measurement through the smart contract technology provided by Ethereum. A blockchain private chain is created and then the smart contract is deployed into the private chain. With the advantages of blockchain technology aforementioned, the storage of power data and the power transactions will be more credible and more transparent. All in all, this paper designs and builds a smart grid system based on the smart contract technology of blockchain. The system can be used not only for smart grid systems but also for other energy trading systems. This article provides a reference for the application of blockchain technology.

Abstract:
L’indagine prende le mosse da uno studio sull’utilizzo di una tecnologia che oggi tutti conoscono con il nome di blockchain, risalente al 1991, che suggeriva una “timbratura digitale”, mediante delle «computationally practical procedures», di documenti di testo, audio, foto e video di modo che fosse impossibile per chiunque retrodatarli o postdatarli. Premessa un’imprescindibile ricognizione della letteratura tecnico-scientifica in tema di timbratura digitale e registri informatici centralizzati e decentralizzati, lo studio è svolto principalmente attraverso l’analisi teorica delle strutture tecnologiche basate su registri distribuiti, come la blockchain, e sostenuto da notazioni e riferimenti pratici. La blockchain è paragonabile ad un complesso sistema di contabilità. Il meccanismo si fonda su un database digitale distribuito, strutturato in “blocchi” che formano una “catena”, ordinati cronologicamente. Ogni blocco contiene una serie di informazioni, inserite congiuntamente o disgiuntamente dagli utenti che hanno accesso alla chain, e validate dalla maggioranza degli apparecchi collegati allo stesso network. Tutti questi dati, una volta immagazzinati nel relativo blocco, vengono cristallizzati in modo definitivo, per cui la loro modifica è possibile soltanto attraverso una operazione inversa e sempre validata dalla maggioranza degli utenti. Ciò rende pressoché impossibile la manipolazione fraudolenta dei dati e la modifica da parte di terzi non autorizzati. Tramite l’utilizzo di un sistema blockchain, quindi, si ottiene: decentralizzazione, intesa come assenza di terze parti o intermediari, immutabilità, poiché la catena di blocchi non può essere modificata unilateralmente, e sicurezza, grazie all’utilizzo della crittografia. Lo studio della blockchain e dei suoi tratti più caratteristici è rilevante poiché l’indagine si sofferma poi in particolare sulla possibilità di demandare, a tale sistema totalmente distribuito, quale è la blockchain, la gestione dei rapporti di scambio tra due o più utenti al fine di renderli istantanei e, soprattutto, completamente automatici. Ciò è reso possibile grazie all’utilizzo di uno smart contract, concetto introdotto negli anni ’90 prendendo spunto dal sistema di vendita dei distributori automatici. Si tratta di protocolli informatici, scritti in linguaggio di programmazione, che consentono al sistema informatico di reagire unicamente qualora e quando si siano verificate le condizioni inserite nello stesso. Il controllo sulla sussistenza o meno di tali condizioni, necessarie affinché venga eseguito il contratto, è affidata ai cc.dd. oracoli (oracles), programmi che non appartengono alla blockchain e che comunicano l’avvenuto soddisfacimento delle condizioni dedotte in contratto. La descritta analisi teorica esamina, da un lato, il funzionamento dello smart contract, visto come strumento per la conclusione automatica di accordi, e, dall’altro, le possibilità applicative di tali strumenti, al fine di verificare la concreta utilizzabilità degli smart contracts nel prossimo futuro. L’analisi si sofferma, ovviamente, con particolare attenzione, sulla natura giuridica degli smart contracts, verificando la possibilità di ricondurli automaticamente all’interno della categoria dei contratti, e accertando le analogie e le differenze che questi presentano con i cc.dd. contratti automatizzati. La verifica svolta assume fondamentale importanza al fine di comprendere se e quali norme del Codice Civile possono eventualmente trovare applicazione anche nei confronti di questi sistemi informatici.<br>The investigation starts from a study on the use of a technology that today everyone knows with the name of blockchain, dating back to 1991, which suggested a "digital stamping", through "computationally practical procedures", of text documents, audio, photos and videos so that it was impossible for anyone to backdate or postdate them. Premised an essential survey of the technical-scientific literature on the subject of digital stamping and centralized and decentralized computer registers, the study is mainly carried out through the theoretical analysis of technological structures based on distributed registers, such as the blockchain, and supported by notations and references practical. The blockchain is comparable to a complex accounting system. The mechanism is based on a distributed digital database, structured in "blocks" that form a "chain", arranged chronologically. Each block contains a series of information, entered jointly or separately by the users who have access to the chain, and validated by the majority of the devices connected to the same network. All these data, once stored in the relative block, are crystallized in a definitive way, so their modification is possible only through an inverse operation and always validated by the majority of users. This makes fraudulent data manipulation and modification by unauthorized third parties almost impossible. Through the use of a blockchain system, therefore, we obtain: decentralization, understood as the absence of third parties or intermediaries, immutability, since the block chain cannot be changed unilaterally, and security, thanks to the use of cryptography. The study of the blockchain and its most characteristic features is relevant since the investigation then focuses in particular on the possibility of delegating, to this totally distributed system, such as the blockchain, the management of the exchange relationships between two or more users in order to to make them instant and, above all, completely automatic. This is made possible thanks to the use of a smart contract, a concept introduced in the 90s taking a cue from the sales system of vending machines. These are computer protocols, written in programming language, which allow the computer system to react only when and when the conditions included in it occur. The control on the existence or otherwise of these conditions, necessary for the contract to be executed, is entrusted to the so-called oracles (oracles), programs that do not belong to the blockchain and that communicate the fulfillment of the conditions set out in the contract. The described theoretical analysis examines, on the one hand, the functioning of the smart contract, seen as a tool for the automatic conclusion of agreements, and, on the other, the application possibilities of these tools, in order to verify the concrete usability of smart contracts in the near future. The analysis obviously focuses with particular attention on the legal nature of smart contracts, verifying the possibility of automatically tracing them back to the category of contracts, and ascertaining the similarities and differences that these present with the so-called so-called automated contracts. The verification carried out assumes fundamental importance in order to understand if and which rules of the Civil Code may possibly also be applied to these IT systems.

Abstract:
The purpose of this Master's thesis is to explore blockchain technology and smart contracts as a way of building privacy-sensitive applications. The main focus is on a medication plan containing prescriptions, built on a blockchain system of smart contracts. This is an example use case, but the results can be transferred to other ones where sensitive data is being shared and a proof of validity or authentication is needed. First the problem is presented, why medication plans are in need of digitalisation and why blockchain technology is a fitting technology for implementing such an application. Then blockchain technology is explained, since it is a very new and relatively unfamiliar IT construct. Thereafter, a design is proposed for solving the problem. A system of smart contracts was built to prove how such an application can be built, and suggested guidelines for how a blockchain system should be designed to fulfil the requirements that were defined. Finally, a discussion is held regarding the applicability of different blockchain designs to the problem of privacy-handling applications.<br>Syftet med detta examensarbete är att utforska blockkedje teknologi och s.k. smarta kontrakt för att bygga applikationer där känslig information hanteras. Huvudsakligen ligger fokus på att utveckla en struktur baserad på blockkedje teknologi och smarta kontrakt för en medikationsplan. Detta är ett typ-exempel för att visa hur en sådan applikation kan byggas, men resultaten kan överföras till andra områden där känslig data delas mellan parter, eller där ett bevis för korrekthet krävs. Först presenteras problemet, varför medikationsplaner behöver digitaliseras och varför blockkedje teknologi är väl anpassat för att implementera en sådan applikation. Sedan förklaras blockkedje teknologi något djupare i detalj, eftersom det är ett relativt nytt koncept. Därefter föreslås en design för att lösa problemet.  Ett system av smarta kontrakt är byggt för att visa hur en medikationsplan kan byggas, och riktlinjer ges för hur ett blockkedje system bör se ut för att stödja systemet av smarta kontrakt. Till slut hålls en kortare diskussion om hur olika blockkedje-designer kan användas för att appliceras på problemet med känslig information.<br><p>Presentation held externally at Technical University Munich on the 29-5-2017 10.50.</p>

Abstract:
Bitcoin served as the catalyst for creating a solution to secure digital transactions without requiring a trusted third party to be involved. To solve this problem, the mechanisms now associated with a Blockchain were conceptualized and implemented to serve as the backbone for the Bitcoin network. More specifically, it was used as a security tool making Bitcoin a more transparent and reliable form of cash, a digital cryptographic currency. Even tough Bitcoin ended up not fulfilling its intended purpose as a currency, the Blockchain technology has enabled further avenues for innovation and creativity. Blockchain has since been used as the backbone for various cryptocurrencies networks. Some implementations of this technology allow the execution of code, also known as ”smart contracts”. Smart contracts are executed in an autonomous manner, with no human intervention. These can be used to solve a new set of problems due to their transparent behavior, lack of human intervention and distributed nature. Blockchain technology allows the creation of systems that introduce a number of benefits over traditional data handling used in today’s Healthcare Information Systems. Costs and risks associated with these systems can be reduced and information can become transparent and trustworthy to all participants. The Hyperledger Fabric Network with true private transactions and advanced security mechanisms was used to serve as the basis for the system proposed in this dissertation. Moreover, a client application was also created that interacts with smart contracts to manipulate the ledger. The work discussed in this dissertation shows that a Blockchain system based on Hyperledger Fabric is suitable for managing patients identity, in Healthcare. Even tough the feature set of this Blockchain is very focused in privacy and security, some additional measures regarding confidentiality of data had to be implemented. Regardless, a system was built successfully that met the requirements. The implementation of this system would provide transparency, immutability and additional security for patients and medical staff alike; Sumário: Gestão de Identidade nos Serviços de Saúde Utilizando Tecnologia Blockchain A criptomoeda Bitcoin foi essencial para criar uma solução para transacções digitais seguras, sem requerer a participação de um terceiro interveniente fidedigno para ambas as partes. Para resolver este problema, os mecanismos que hoje são associados com a tecnologia Blockchain foram concebidos e implementados para servir como base para a rede da Bitcoin. Mais especificamente, esta foi utilizada como um mecanismo de segurança, de forma a tornar a Bitcoin uma forma de dinheiro mais transparente e estável, uma moeda criptográfica. Mesmo que a Bitcoin não tenha conseguido cumprir o seu propósito original, a tecnologia Blockchain despoletou novas inovações e permitiu maior criatividade. A Blockchain tem sido, desde então, a base tecnológica de várias criptomoedas. Algumas implementações desta tecnologia permitem a execução de código de uma forma autónoma exactamente como foi programado, sem intervenção humana. Habitualmente chamados smart contracts, estes podem ser usados para resolver um novo conjunto de problemas devido ao seu comportamento transparente, ausência de intervenção humana e devido à sua natureza distribuida. A Blockchain é uma tecnologia que permite a criação de sistemas que introduzem um conjunto de beneficios em relação aos sistemas tradicionais de armazenamento de dados utilizados nos serviços de saúde. Custos e riscos associados a estes sistemas podem ser reduzidos e a informação pode ser mais transparente e fidedigna para todos os participantes. A rede Hyperledger Fabric com transacções privadas e mecanismos avançados de segurança foi usada como base para a criação do sistema proposto nesta dissertação. Adicionalmente, uma aplicação foi criada que usa smart contracts para manipular o ledger da Blockchain. O trabalho apresentado nesta dissertação mostra que um sistema baseado em Blockchain, neste caso em Hyperledger Fabric, é adequado a gerir a identidade de utentes, em organizações prestadoras de cuidados de saúde. Apesar das funcionalidades apresentadas por esta plataforma serem focadas em privacidade e segurança, algumas medidas adicionais em torno da confidencialidade dos dados tiveram de ser implementadas. Independentemente disso, o sistema foi construido com sucesso e conseguiu cumprir os requerimentos que foram definidos. A implementação deste sistema em serviços de saúde traria tranparência, imutabilidade e segurança adicional para utentes e profissionais de saúde.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper evaluates Dynamic-IoTrust access control that integrated blockchain and trust value to meet the requirements of dynamic, secure, and distributed access control in the IoT environment. Dynamic-IoTrust intended to overcome the issues related to dynamic access control in IoT by limit authorized users’ access based on the trust value and user misbehavior. In particular, the system contains three kinds of smart contracts, multiple Main Smart Contract (MSC), one Register Contract (RC), and one Judging Contract (JC). Dynamic-IoTrust provides predefined static policy and dynamic trust value. The performance of Dynamic-IoTrust is analyzed by calculating the cost consumption rate of smart contracts and their function. A comparison is made between the existing systems and Dynamic-IoTrust. The results illustrate the transaction and execution costs of smart contracts.

Abstract:
Abstract The convergence of artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain technology is transforming the creative economy by enabling secure, transparent, and decentralized innovation in digital content creation, intellectual property management, and monetization. Traditional creative industries are often constrained by centralized platforms, opaque copyright enforcement, and unfair revenue distribution, which limit the autonomy and financial benefits of creators. By leveraging blockchain’s immutable ledger, smart contracts, and non-fungible tokens (NFTs), digital assets can be authenticated, tokenized, and securely traded, ensuring ownership verification and automated royalty distribution. Simultaneously, AI-driven tools such as generative adversarial networks (GANs), neural networks, and natural language processing (NLP) models facilitate content generation, curation, and adaptive recommendations, enhancing creative workflows and fostering new artistic possibilities. This research report explores the synergies between AI and blockchain in the decentralized creative economy, analyzing their impact on digital rights protection, NFT marketplaces, decentralized publishing, AI-assisted music composition, and smart licensing models. Furthermore, it examines regulatory challenges, ethical considerations, and scalability limitations that need to be addressed for mainstream adoption. By integrating AI-powered automation with blockchain’s decentralized infrastructure, this study outlines a sustainable roadmap for secure, fair, and transparent digital creativity in the Web3 era.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract: Automated smart contracts represent a paradigm shift in decentralized governance by integrating artificial intelligence (AI) with blockchain technologies to enhance security, scalability, and adaptability. Traditional smart contracts, while enabling trustless and automated transactions, often lack the flexibility to adapt to dynamic regulatory frameworks, evolving economic conditions, and real-time security threats. AI-powered smart contracts leverage machine learning, reinforcement learning, and predictive analytics to optimize contract execution, detect fraudulent transactions, and enable self-adjusting governance mechanisms in Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs). Additionally, AI enhances blockchain consensus mechanisms, fraud detection, and risk assessment in Decentralized Finance (DeFi) applications. Privacy-preserving technologies such as zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) and quantum-resistant cryptography strengthen the security and confidentiality of AI-driven smart contracts. This research explores the convergence of AI and blockchain, examining how intelligent smart contracts can automate legal compliance, enforce dynamic contract logic, and optimize transaction fees while maintaining transparency and decentralization. By integrating AI-driven decision-making, automated dispute resolution, and scalable execution models, this study provides a comprehensive framework for secure, efficient, and intelligent decentralized governance. Keywords: AI-powered smart contracts, blockchain automation, decentralized governance, reinforcement learning, fraud detection, decentralized finance (DeFi), zero-knowledge proofs, quantum-resistant cryptography, DAO optimization, legal compliance automation.

Full text
Abstract:
Blockchain-based systems are run by a decentralized network of participants and are designed to be censorship-resistant. We use sanctions imposed by the U.S. Department of Treasury on Tornado Cash (TC), a smart contract protocol, to study the impact and effectiveness of regulation in decentralized systems. We document an immediate and lasting impact on TC following the sanction announcement, measured by market reaction, transaction volume, and diversity of users. Still, net flows into TC contracts recover to and surpass pre-announcement levels for most pools, supporting viability of TC. Evidence on cooperation at the settlement layer is mixed: the aggregate share of non-cooperative blocks increases over time, but a shrinking number of actors process Tornado Cash transactions, indicating a fragility to the sustainability of censorship-resistance. Non-cooperation is not explained by tokenomics, and changes in perception around legal authority and clarity of regulation appears to be a key factor for whether to cooperate.

Abstract:
Modern agricultural production and food trade are involved in the process of digital transformation, which is a cardinal factor of sustainable development and is carried out on the basis of IT platforms, the Internet of Things, cloud computing, big data, artificial intelligence, blockchain technologies. The COVID-19 pandemic has increased the dependence of these sectors of the economy on information and communication technology infrastructure and services. At the same time, the slow updating of legislation, which lags behind the constantly improving digital technologies, not only hinders their implementation, but also is a source of a number of social and legal problems. A modern regulatory framework based on digital strategies should strengthen "smart agriculture". In Russia, the legal mechanism of digital transformation and development of the national platform "Digital Agriculture" should be supported by updated basic legislation.

Full text
Abstract:
In the global economic model, the service sector continues to gain ground on the manufacturing sector and trends such as the integration of new technologies into production processes are advancing inexorably. Advanced economies are pushed to specialise, supported by their regional innovation systems, and cities are emerging as key and strategic centres of activity. In this context, Knowledge Intensive Business Services (KIBS) are presented as critical due to their capacity to promote innovation within the regional productive fabric and smart specialisation strategies, the promotion of advanced manufacturing, the generation of quality employment and the stimulation of economic growth, especially in urban environments. This is why many cities, prioritizing KIBS to stimulate their economy, need to create and retain talent for this sort of industry. Likewise, vocational and education training (VET) systems, such as the Basque VET system, have so far developed their greatest strengths in the field of manufacturing knowledge. Due to this, VET seems to be obliged to adapt to this new scenario, in which KIBS and cities stand out, in order to continue to maintain their level of excellence. KIBS have been extensively examined, but until now no one had posed the following questions: What is the role of vocational training in KIBS? To what extent are VET profiles (and will VET profiles be) relevant in KIBS? This study will show an emerging trend in the labour market. This is the growing relevance of technology profiles with VET background in KIBS, especially in technology-based KIBS. VET technology profiles can be consolidated as one of the main implementing agents of the digital transformation (cybersecurity, blockchain, cloud computing, UX design, artificial intelligence, scientific computing...). To this end, hybridisation with other fields of knowledge but also with studies of other kinds such as university studies may be essential.
