The number of cryptocurrencies has increased from about 2,000, with a market capitalization of over $200 billion in late 2017, to over 8,000, with a market capitalization of about $1.6 trillion. For context, the market capitalization of global equities is about $110 trillion, that of the S&P 500 stocks is $35 trillion and that of US Treasuries is $22 trillion. Reported trading volume in cryptocurrencies, as represented by the two largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, has increased sixfold, from an estimated $6.8 billion per day in late 2017 to $48.6 billion per day in May 2021.1 This data is based on what is called “clean data” from Coin Metrics; the total reported trading volume is significantly higher, but much of it is artificially inflated.2,3 For context, trading volume on US equity exchanges doubled over the same period.

  • Blockchain: a Journey To…..Where?
    Debevoise In Depth Blockchain: A Journey to…..Where? May 17 2018 Bitcoin—Birth of Blockchain1 On October 31, 2008, Satoshi Nakamoto made an announcement on the Cryptography Mailing List at metzdowd.com that “I’ve been working on a new electronic cash system that’s fully peer-to-peer, with no trusted third party” and posted a white paper on www.bitcoin.org.2 The same author mined the genesis block of 50 Bitcoins on January 3, 20093 and released the Bitcoin software as an open source code on January 9, 2009.4 All these took place rather unceremoniously. So started an obsession with blockchain. The blockchain technology that underpins Bitcoin solved the problem that had long vexed the digital currency world—the “double spend” problem. A digital currency is represented in a digital file, which can be duplicated or falsified. How can we prevent an owner of a unit of digital currency from spending the same unit more than once without validation by a trusteed third party?5 The Bitcoin blockchain solved that problem by having network participants validate each Bitcoin transaction and thus having the network reach consensus.6 The Bitcoin platform thus started a “trustless” ledger system. In less than a decade, the world has witnessed an increasing fascination with blockchain in many corners of society from the academia to corporate boardrooms to government offices and, occasionally but most importantly, to cartoons in newspapers.7 Despite government crackdowns in some countries, we are still seeing a conveyer belt 1 This is largely based on the script of a key note address given at the Accounting Meeting of the 33rd Annual General Meeting of the International Swaps and Derivatives Association on April 24, 2018.

  • BAKSHI-THESIS-2018.Pdf
    c 2018 Surya Bakshi PRIVACY PRESERVING OUTSOURCING OF STATE CHANNEL ARBITRATION IN MICRORAIDEN BY SURYA BAKSHI THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2018 Urbana, Illinois Adviser: Assistant Professor Andrew Miller ABSTRACT Decentralized blockchain-based cryptocurrencies like Ethereum and Bitcoin offer a new way to hold and transact money. However, storage requirements for every node and difficulty in transaction confirmation make them difficult to match traditional payment processors. A proposed solution to scalability is the use of payment channels that allow mutually distrustful parties to create and authorize payments between one another off-line. Not only does this allow payments to be processed quickly, but it also reduces transaction volume in the underlying blockchain. An unsolved problem with off-chain payment channels is that participants in the channel must be on-line and alert to channel events all the time. If any participant in the channel goes off-line for any reason (power outage, process crashes, cost too high) that party stands to lose money if other parties attempt to reverse payments. In an ideal world, a solution would involve a third party that can process payments on behalf of each party, but it requires trust establishment. In this work, we present a protocol that solves the monitoring problem called Pisa. Pisa allows channel participants to appoint distrusted third par- ties to watch their channel and handle finalization on their behalf without revealing any linkable state information.

The author would like to thank the academic supervisor Professor Per Johnny Nesse and case supervisors Sverke Lorgen and Karl Christian Thomle for help and guidance throughout the duration of the project. The help and contributions are utmost appreciated. Jenitha Thavanathan iv v Abstract Innovation is the key to prosperity in competitive markets, as almost every significant business venture can trace its roots to an original spark of innov- ation, and on occasion, ground breaking innovation would foster a new way of thinking. Enter Blockchain, an emerging factor contributing to the in- dustry’s forced transition into a digital-first age. This thesis aims to uncover how process innovation with Blockchain technology can reinvent KYC pro- cesses in the banking industry today. This is as any other topic regarding Blockchain technology, only being approached by industry professionals. Due to its fairly young age, extensive research on Blockchain technology in KYC is sparse.
