“All of these problems are human problems. The Blockchain can’t solve them”
Prof Kelvin Low pulling apart the Blockchain bandwagon. #DigCitz2019

@MarcoRizzie83 says the trust and reliance that a party places on the algorithm in algorithmic contracts is akin to relationships of trust and confidence.
This may mean equitable relief from Undue Influence may be available. #DigCitz2019
“Just imagine you have all your data, your digital ID, on a cheap $40 Android phone. How is that not a honeypot?”
Dr Mik continues the “Pause the Blockchain Revolution” movement! #DigCitz2019
“We have to distinguish the quality of the storage mechanism vs the quality of the data being stored.”
Dr Mik questioning the Blockchain hype #DigCitz2019
Prof Kelvin Low outlines some problems with Smart Contracts:
1. They’re not really contracts
2. They’re blind and deaf (and maybe dumb as well?)
3. Blockchain is trustworthy, but are oracles trustworthy?
#DigCitz2019
Ethereium, using Solidity, has 100 bugs per 1000 lines of code in 2016: 10% error rate.
Prof Kelvin Low advises “use it if you, you know…” #DigCitz2019
Does Blockchain democratise?
Prof Kelvin Low says “there is remarkable centralisation in coding” and the only people with real choice are the miners. But, Mining power is oligopolistic. #DigCitz2019
