Introducing the “Cryptoeconomic Systems” Editorial Team & Advisory Board

Following on from the announcement of our forthcoming Cryptoeconomic Systems Summit October 5–6, we are pleased to introduce our Editorial Team and Advisory Board.

The Cryptoeconomic Systems journal and conference series aims to be a reputable venue and scholarly publication of record for impactful original research and reviews, analyses & systematizations of existing knowledge.

Rigorous study of cryptoeconomic systems necessitates the synthesis of technical fields such as cryptography, protocol engineering and distributed systems research with insights from the domains of economics, law, complex systems and philosophy. We hope that this initiative will play a part in crystallizing a mature communal scholarly ecosystem of cryptocurrency & blockchain technology research.

The journal is to be published by MIT Press with a Diamond Open Access policy, co-ordinated by a Managing Editor Wassim Alsindi and three Editors-in-Chief: Joi Ito (Director, MIT Media Lab), Andrew Miller (Professor, UIUC/IC3) and Neha Narula (Director, Digital Currency Initiative).

Editors-in-Chief: Joi Ito, Andrew Miller, Neha Narula
