Background
The "Crypto" movement started in 2008, when the anonymous Satoshi Nakamoto published his famous peer-to-peer payments system called Bitcoin. In the beginning, most hype was focused on the Bitcoin currency itself, but over time the underlying blockchain datastructure proved useful for applications beyond simple monetary transactions. In 2014, Vitalik Buterin published the Ethereum whitepaper and blockchain together with a Touring-complete programming language called Solidity. This allowed developers to build applications and "smart contracts" on top of the underlying trust layer provided by the blockchain and led to the emergence of a fascinating new organisational structure: Decentralised organisations that collaborate globally and digitally, making full use of the new tools offered by tokens, smart contracts and programmable money. Researchers describe these digital decentralised organisations as a sophisticated new form of human collaboration that may go on to compete with established corporate and governmental organisations.
