[zaynah dargaye]

Tokenomics 2020, 2nd International Conference on Blockchain Economics,
Security and Protocols

11 and 12 May 2020, Toulouse, France

After the great success of Tokenomics 2019, we are pleased to announce
Tokenomics 2020, the 2nd International Conference on Blockchain
Economics, Security and Protocols. This year’s conference is hosted by
Toulouse School of Economics (TSE).

Tokenomics is an international forum for theory, design, analysis,
implementation and applications of blockchains and smart contracts. The
goal of the conference is to bring together economists, computer science
researchers and practitioners working on blockchains in a unique program
featuring outstanding invited talks and academic presentations.

Keynote speakers will include

     Jean Tirole, 2014 laureate of the Sveriges Riksbank prize in
economic sciences in memory of Alfred Nobel, honorary chairman of the
Jean-Jacques Laffont - Toulouse School of Economics Foundation and
chairman of the Institute for Advanced Study in Toulouse,
     Long Chen, Secretary-General of the Luohan Academy, an open research
institute initiated by Alibaba, and former Chief Strategy Officer at Ant
Financial,
     Ittai Abraham, senior researcher at vmware research.

Topics of interest

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

     Distributed protocols for blockchains
     Lightweight protocols and networking issues of blockchains
     Fairness and Consistency (logical and economical) of blockchains
     Blockchain security, privacy and cryptographic tools
     Incentive theory, mechanism design, contract theory for blockchains
     Repeated games, collaborative games, reputation, algorithmic game
theory
     ICO and cryptocurrencies, token valuation, governance and voting
     Trust models for blockchains
     Smart contracts and programming languages
     Formal methods for blockchains
     Secure multiparty computations (SMPC, e.g., auctions with sealed
bids)
     Multi-agent systems and machine learning techniques applied to
blockchains

The program committee encourages the submission of original
interdisciplinary works exploring the conjunction of economic concerns
with distributed systems, networks and system security.
