<nettime> Big list of existing academic Bitcoin research |
Hi all, I decided to build a rather large database of academic research on Bitcoin. If you'd like to see it, here is the link https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VaWhbAj7hWNdiE73P-W-wrl5a0WN gzjofmZXe0Rh5sg/edit?usp=sharing. It's a Google Doc, and it allows you to comment if you think there is something I've missed. You can also download it as an Excel spreadsheet. It includes over 250 academic, and quasi-academic, research papers, journal articles and theses related to Bitcoin. Admittedly, the definition of 'academic' or 'quasi-academic' is pretty loose. It can include peer-reviewed papers that appear in major journals, to working papers released from university departments and think tanks, to a thesis of a Masters student, to independent research from people with clear expertise. I built this list because I myself like to write quasi-academic articles on Bitcoin, and have been trying to find good quality analysis of cryptocurrency, frustrated by the huge amounts of spurious opinion churned in the media, and self-promoting rants by opportunists and ideologues. My original writeup about this, along with my picks for the 25 potentially most interesting articles can be found here http://suitpossum.blogspot.co.uk/2014/12/academic-bitcoin-research.html Cheers, Brett @suitpossum # distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: http://mx.kein.org/mailman/listinfo/nettime-l # archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: nettime@kein.org
