Blockchain Commons #SmartCustody White Papers

#SmartCustody White Papers is a set of standalone white papers that have also been compiled in the #SmartCustody Book.

At this point, the White Papers may be a somewhat older version of the text than the Book, which also contains papers on a variety of other topics; we are undecided on whether we should maintain this separate repo of individual papers.

We promise not to bring legal action against researchers who point out a problem provided they do their best to follow the these guidelines.
