500			_aSummary : This practical introduction explains the field of Blockchain economics, the economic models emerging with the implementation of distributed Ledger technology. These models are characterized by three factors: open platform business models, cryptotoken money supplies, and initial Coin offerings as a new and official form of financing. The book covers a variety of approaches from a business and academic perspective, ranging from financial theory, complexity, and open innovation networks to behavior economics, br>self-determination theory, public policy, and financial inclusion. Unlike existing titles, this book draws on worldwide Blockchain industry Experts to define the new discipline of Blockchain economics and provide novel theoretical and conceptual resources for the future of this fast-developing economy. The Primer also highlights the wider br>Theme of Blockchain as an institutional technology, in that many value transfer interactions might be shifted to automated networks, decreasing the number of human-operated institutions.
