Hannelore De Silva (Institute of Finance, Banking and Insurance) will talk about the technological foundations and intellectual origins of bitcoin and the blockchain.

This edition of the Cryptomonday series of the Research Institute for Cryptoeconomics will be dedicated to the topic “Origins of Bitcoin”. Long before Bitcoin’s anonymous inventor Satoshi Nakamoto presented his ideas, a long list of important contributions in cryptography and computer science laid the foundations of Bitcoin and the blockchain. The aim of this talk is to present these technologies as well as the intellectual origins of Bitcoin to see how other applications might benefit from the ideas around blockchain.
