@@elginbeloy6205 Worse yet, there is no recourse against badly written smart contract, as I understand. That's where the legal system's ambiguity and vagueness comes in handy. I could sign a complicated contract with a loophole allowing the other party to get my house for free. But then I could go to court and make a case that this contract was not adequately expressing the consensual will of both of the parties (namely, me). And there's a good chance I would win and render that contract or some clauses in the contract void. There is no analogue for that in smart contracts. That's why I view them as tools for professionals - financial institutions, traders, investors, not ordinary people.
A lot of the focus here was on the interpretation of the contract and mentioning that the "state" will intervene. Would have loved to hear more on how the "Consensus Mechanism" fits in with the interpretation of the contract and how DApps could be used to let the people have a say in the decision making process.
If you're interested in this still, I'd recommend checking out some materials on specific DAOs and how their governance structures work. The Ethereum VM's consensus mechanism provides rules that apply to the entire platform, while contractual consensus can be performed on a dapp basis. MakerDAO (the governance mechanism for Compound Finance) is one of the longest running and most financially liquid DAOs on Ethereum and is a good starting place for application specific governance and decentralized consensus.

What a big bunch of knowledge I'm taking from this guy and his partners. I have to say that somebody should tell the students who stand up before professor finish his speach doesn't deserve studying in that college. What a kindness fault.
Answer to the question 1.10.00 : If a transaction is entered into the blockchain and verified by a third party( let's say miners) , it doesn't necessarily allows the miner to actually know the contents of the transaction. So in essence, a third party would not actually know the flight you were travelling or didn't travel in this instance. The sole purpose of proof of work in a blockchain is to verify if a transaction has happened and to validate the transaction. Correct me if I'm wrong
It is not easy for a lawyer or any other person with just basic coding education to really understand the real code, the pseudo-code maybe. Thanks Larry!
1:00:15 Theoretically, a formalization effort for an event leaf should be proportional to the expected loss or value, not the probability score itself.
@1:13 that guy asked why blockchain is used for insurance company,the answer is to automate the insurance process without human workers.The professor did mention "no touch technology" but he got could not answer properly when questioned by the student.Blockchain and smart contract is used in the flight insurance to automtate the claims and saving money on human wokers.
If my house burned down and I had fire insurance, then the work of a human worker might be to carry out an investigation as to whether the fire was accidental or whether I started the fire and I'm trying to defraud the insurance company. I'm not sure about how blockchain tech would automate away that human task. What is the human task in the flight insurance example?
After watching this, I can say: 1. Hugo is the most applied student, every classes his questions are there somewhere. 2. Ethereum is all hype and speculation, because when it comes to the law it's still very hard to create rules and predict the problems SC may cause. I am not saying the SC ideas are bad, but there's still a long way to be tested. Having a public figure behind the protocol also brings some danger. Also theTuring-complete language makes the protocol more vunerable for attacks. 3. Chances of bitcoin going mainstream are much likely to happen due to the restricted language used, for being 100% decentralized and for having clarity in its purpose. As Professor Gensler said: "In Ethereum you can write a program to do just anything." It's higly flexible but hard to be inside real world's law. Bitcoin, on the other hand, not even the law can stop as the network everyday gets globally extended. 4. Thank you, MIT and Professor Gensler for the perfect contents presented until now.
Also, a key element of a contract is "a meeting of the minds". In order for that to occur, both parties need to be able to understand the contract. But if a contract "is in the code" and neither party can read code then there is no way their minds can meet unless they use a translated version. At that point, the contract is actually in the translation. If the code doesn't deliver what is contained in the translation then that is likely a breach. Another problem is that you end up with contracts written by programmers instead of licensed and qualified attorneys. It might end up that some programmers get prosecuted for practicing law without a license.
Concerning the flight delay insurance example, I don't see what would stop any insurer from making that kind of product available without the use of smart contracts - e.g. a website where one hooks up their payment method and their deposit account and then the flight number. However there are some notable differences compared to using a "regular non-smart" contract: 1) I have to place less trust in the insurer's solvency etc. 2) I have to place less trust in the insurer's will to follow the letter of the contract. 3) The most important: the contract itself could become a security that can be traded. That's certainly not something that a simple website could allow in any way.
A better example than flight delay is crop insurance. Farmers in Africa which rely on rains could engage in crop insurance schemes where they pay a premium in the good years, but in the bad years (no rain) they would get a settlement. This prevents them from starving, leaving their farm behind and having to become migrate workers. Instead they do not have to think The oracle could be an aggregate of data from NASA, ESA, some Chinese agency and so on whatever posting global weather data. The founder of Chainlink has talked a lot about this. While we can talk about concern for privacy and other drawbacks here, keep in mind that this insurance scheme could be created by anyone in any place in the world, not just a big insurance company. Today this type of scheme might not be feasible, and even if it was setup, a powerful corporation might just be able to bribe their way out of paying for things, or outlast the poor farmer in any legal battle. This is the type of solution that blockchain smart contracts unleash.
01:15:42 “We already saw in the derivatives market the fact that the choice by policymakers was to allow it to be an invisible market and not to regulate that market. It created all sorts of risks that sensible people might think shouldn’t be there…” (glares at Gensler) 🤣
Turing Complete is such a headache at time. Here's why, you take the theory at surface value, assume that it should apply to a new solution. If the solution foes apply or need to apply the theory, then said solution is in valid. With bitcoin, the lock time remains a proven way for the system's accountability.
The tech discussion, well, kinda was missing the big picture, not to mention some of which was not quite right, e.g., throughput of a chain is not determined by how hard the proof of work is or what hashing algorithm is involved, it’s by the defined protocol by consensus. The Turing completeness is also not really about loops, but rather computability or not; there is no limit to how many languages can be used for the smart contract is, as any Turing complete virtual machine can be represented by any high level language, too; etc etc. this might suffice for a “intro to smart contract 101 - what they are kinda taking about”, but it’s not really enough of you really want to know.
I think one very important thing we can add here in addition to what Prof. Lawrence Lessig has taught is that - Objectivity of the outcome makes writing *Law as Code* much more easier (proportionally) overall. For example - In the classic example of Insurance product connected to flight delays, the objectivity of the outcome connected to the Source of Truth makes the overall product easier to be implemented as *Law as Code* because outcome is guaranteed to happen as data is objective - flight is getting delayed or not getting delayed. Ofcourse, the concern of the candidate that he may not trust whether code is faulty or not can obviously be verified by any independent agency.
To summarize - 1. Objectivity of Outcome & 2. Source of Truth (for the outcome) are two key params in designing the systems which are favourable to the concept of Smart Contracts.
