This online workshop seeks to focus the strategic debate on the
opportunities provided by P2P financial systems, and on the impact on the
financial ecosystem in the context of the proving times we are living.
Authorities, academics and practitioners will have the opportunity to
better understand this phenomenon and to identify possible future
developments and dynamics that will ensure an innovative, integrated and
developed landscape in Europe and around the world.
Workshop themes – call for papers
The workshop organisers invite authors – whether from academia, public
institutions (including central banks), special interest groups or the
private sector – to submit policy-oriented, theoretical and/or empirical
papers. These papers should be original contributions and clearly focus on
emerging technologies and financial infrastructure, covering at least one
of the following themes:
Theme 1: CBDCs
How Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) will and should impact the
financial infrastructure. Submissions should focus on:
 	Problems addressed by CBDCs and problems with CBDCs
 	How a successful CBDC solution looks like
 	Retail CBDC: custodianship, privacy, e-commerce, merchant incentives
 	Beyond CBDCs: implications for fiscal and monetary policy
 	CBDCs: legal and regulatory challenges
 	CBDCs: Centralized or Distributed Ledger Technology
 	Trade-offs in CBDC architectures and designs
Theme 2: DeFi
Decentralized Finance (DeFi) is transforming the landscape of financial
systems. The advent of decentralized ledgers is giving rise to an array of
new possibilities, but rigorous scrutiny is still scarce. We welcome
contributions pertaining to:
 	DeFi and financial inclusion
 	DeFi regulation and compliance
 	The DeFi ecosystem
 	DeFi protocols (lending protocols, automated market makers, yield farming
protocols)
 	Tokenization of assets, cash flows, equity and debt; hybrid and
Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs)
 	Peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading and carbon trading
 	Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs)
Further Information:
Each submission should include an abstract, as well as the name and email
address of a nominated author who could present the content or specific
aspects of the paper. The abstracts of around 1,000 words (and preferably
the completed papers) should be in English. Any mention of the authors’
names or affiliations should be removed from the submitted paper. The
submission deadline for abstracts/papers is 25 September 2021. Submitted
papers will be reviewed by the Scientific Committee of the P2P Financial
Systems 2021 online workshop. Papers should be submitted in PDF format
through the EasyChair P2PFISY 2021 Call For Papers. Questions should be
sent to the following email address: p2pfisy@cs.ucl.ac.uk.
Selection process and workshop participation
The workshop’s Scientific Committee will review all abstracts/papers
submitted by the deadline in terms of their quality, their policy relevance
and the potential level of interest, while ensuring an overall balance of
topics, stakeholder interests and approaches. Authors whose submissions are
accepted will be notified of the Committee’s decision by 25 October 2021.
By submitting their papers, authors also agree to revise them based on the
discussion at the conference and to allow them to be published on the
conference website.
