About Center for Cryptoeconomics

The Center for Cryptoeconomics provides economic research and consulting services related to blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies. Our mission is to build a better understanding of the economics of these technologies and their applications. We do this by producing and publishing basic and applied economic research from respected academics and experts and educating developers, corporates, policymakers and the media about the economics of blockchain technology. RESEARCH We conduct research on all aspects of cryptoeconomics. Our main research areas are the economic mechanisms in blockchains and other distributed ledger technologies, the economics of blockchain applications and the economics of smart contracts and property. CONSULTING The Center for Cryptoeconomics provides consulting services and training to corporates who find their existing business model challenged by decentralized computing technologies or who would like to explore their opportunities. We also advise start-ups in analyzing and designing mechanisms and incentives for blockchain-based token-economies. Our economic consultants assist you in the following areas: Economic mechanisms in blockchains Consensus mechanisms in Blockchains involve a range of different economic agents. Using approaches from game theory and mechanism design, we test whether the incentives induce players to behave as it is intended. Economics of blockchain applications Blockchain technology has three different layers: cryptocurrencies, smart properties, and smart contracts. Together, we analyze the potential of different blockchain applications in your business and derive concrete fields of activity. Analysis of blockchain-based token economies We advise you on the design of the underlying token in your proposed economy. With the help of formal analysis and simulations, we support you to find optimal token regulation rules and incentives to increase your business value.
