Block11 Internet Governance and Blockchain Governance

In this session, we will discuss how BGIN can contribute to forming better blockchain governance, drawing lessons from internet governance. The internet, which began as an experiment with ARPANET, has seen grassroots activities by communities such as the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) and ICANN to standardize inter-network connectivity and establish governance frameworks. Considering that blockchain has different characteristics compared to the internet, such as stronger connections with finance and the relative ease of monetization. In light of these differences, the discussion will focus on how BGIN aims to form governance for blockchain.
