Timestamping Smart Ledgers: Comparable, Universal, Traceable, Immune
Report Launch
With Thanks To Our Event Sponsors:
Invitation To Launch & Discussion Of “Timestamping Smart Ledgers - Comparable, Universal, Traceable, Immune” Report On Wednesday, 6 June 2018, 08:45 to 10:30.
Long Finance's Distributed Futures research programme has produced a report entitled “Timestamping Smart Ledgers - Comparable, Universal, Traceable, Immune”, the latest in a series of exciting projects in the programme. We are delighted to invite you to the report launch and discussion on Wednesday, 6 June 2018, from 08:45 to 10:30. The event will offer the opportunity to join the discussion on the findings of the report, which is designed to help senior business people and policy makers understand why timestamping matters.
The research will outline current and historic methods for recording the time of an event, as well as the challenges that will be faced in the future. These challenges vary by sector. In the world of finance, for example, they include the stringent transaction timestamping requirements laid down by MiFID II Article 25 (or "RTS 25"). In geolocation, the interaction with global positioning systems - themselves subject to relativistic and quantum effects - is equally challenging. For Smart Ledgers, recording the time of transactions is a fundamental feature, yet there are a number of definitions and options that managers choose, often unknowingly, when they instruct their teams.
