Description

Trust has long been a subject of enquiry in management and information systems. In this talk, we conceptualize a new type of trust called blockchain-enabled trust, which is at the core of trustless computing, a concept arising from the recent surge of cryptocurrencies and blockchain applications. The Economist magazine called blockchain the trust machine without explaining the internal mechanisms of trust. In this talk, we delve into the inner workings of blockchain-enabled trust.
