Yay! This is a great idea until someone someday comes up with a decentralized form of law.  Wink

Wow there's an idea! could that be done using a blockchain thing - like storing the rules of law in a decentralized way that people all agree is correct?

Yep! I believe it will be done eventually.
Bitcoin is a perfect tool for direct democracy where people vote for laws with hash-power.
But that should happen when majority of the population starts participating.

On a technical side, I guess the blockchain would include a hash of "the law", while the actual text will be stored somewhere else. Everybody could verify that the text hashes to the value in blockchain.
We would also need some rules on what to do if multiple different hashes get voted in (in different blocks of course).
Maybe select the winner based on the last 1000 blocks or something similar. Interesting times ahead Smiley

All,

I apologize for the issues with the website. We now have new hosting and will be getting the problem remedied ASAP. Expect more memos in the weeks and months to come. There may also be a conference in the works....

JDBound:

Here is a site that has collated together some good links to academic works on the monetary economics of free competition in currencies in general. You might need that kind of objective firepower to back the legal arguments, if it goes that far.

There is more to Bitcoin than bitcoins.
From another thread:

Why were they taken off their website? Does anyone have them?

Specifically CM1001 memorandum

All I'm getting is a 404 memorandum!

I'm so glad to see that someone is working on legal aspects of cryptocurrencies. That was one of my biggest concern about bitcoin. I'll follow your group closely!

Thanks for that.


Just to update, it looks like the Mississippi Secretary of State approved our docs without a hitch, so CLAG is now officially an MS non-profit. I will scan and upload them when I get a chance (which may be a week or so from now).

Look for an updated docket of topics on the second post in the weeks to come as well.

Update: We are working very hard to have a substantial piece complete by this week (or... in 4-6 weeks  Wink). Admittedly we are all very busy and we all have several exams right around the corner. I am working on getting a workflow/deliverables timeline drafted and made public so that we can be held accountable to get this stuff done, especially over the summer. I'm guessing it'll look like a memo every 2 weeks or so. But we will need to feel out the response to this first one.
