    ABOUT THE COURSE

    Knowing that Crypto-currency has grabbed a substantial portion of the discussion in legal discourse due to its all-pervading nature. It becomes of much interest to explore the technology underlying it and take a stock of its legal-economic implications, the initial growth of crypto-currency was seen as a libertarian move against the centralized market fall of 2008. The 2008 economic crisis across the globe, saw people losing out trust in the centralized banking system, and shifting to more peer-to-peer transactions, which lead to the consolidation of blockchain technology. Ever since then usage of crypto-currencies has only increased. However, many of the centralized banking sectors across the globe have reflected a resistance against this digital revolution due to its volatile nature and uneven regulating mechanism.
