While some of them are slightly different copies of Bitcoin, other ones propose interesting improvements or new usages of the underlying blockchain technology. However, the novelty of such technologies is often tied with rapid developments and proof-of-concept software, and rigorous scientific analyses of the proposed systems are often skipped. This workshop aims to provide a forum for researchers in this area to carefully analyze current systems and propose new ones in order to create a scientific background for a solid development of new cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology systems. The main topics include (but are not limited to): * Anonymity and privacy in cryptocurrencies * Privacy-preserving technologies * Cryptocurrency based trust systems * Security analysis of existing cryptocurrencies * Formal threat models in cryptocurrency systems * Improvement proposals for existing cryptocurrencies * Application and service cases of distributed ledgers technologies * P2P network cryptocurrencies analysis * Private transactions in blockchain based systems * New usages of the blockchain technology * Scalability solutions for blockchain systems * Blockchain-defined networking * Smart contracts * Distributed Identity Management * Distributed consensus and fault tolerance * Blockhain Protocols and algorithms * Transaction Monitoring and Analysis * Token Economy, finance and payments * Consensus mechanisms * On-chain and off-chain code synergies * Oracles, DeFi, and non-fungible tokens * Decentralized applications and protocols * Blockchain as a service =================== SUBMISSION DETAILS =================== Regular and short papers must be original and not submitted for publication elsewhere. Authors are invited to submit their manuscripts following the LNCS Proceedings Manuscript style. Papers are limited to 16 pages (full papers), or 8 pages (short papers) including references and appendices, and can be submitted as PDF via the CBT 2024 submission site: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cbt2024 *Double blind review*: CBT requires anonymized submissions -- please make sure that submitted papers contain no author names or obvious self-references. Accepted regular papers will be published by Springer in the LNCS collection. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register and present their work at the workshop; otherwise the paper will not be included in the proceedings. ================== PROGRAM COMMITEE ================== PC Chairs: Sergi Delgado-Segura - Chaincode Labs Cristina Perez-Sola - Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona PC Members: Lennart Ante - Blockchain Research Lab Daniel Augot - INRIA Saclay Alex Biryukov - University of Luxembourg Mauro Conti - University of Padua Vanesa Daza - Universitat Pompeu Fabra Victor Garcia - Universitat Oberta de Catalunya Hannes Hartenstein - KIT Jordi Herrera-Joancomarti - Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona Jiasun Li - George Mason University Shin'ichiro Matsuo - Virginia Tech and Georgetown University Jose Luis Munoz-Tapia - Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya Guillermo Navarro-Arribas - Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona Dongming Peng - University of Nebraska-Lincoln Matteo Signorini - Nokia Bell Labs Hitesh Tewari - Trinity College Dublin Florian Tschorsch - Technische Universitat Berlin Eirini Tsiropoulou - University of New Mexico Dimitrios Vasilopoulos - IMDEA Software Institute ================== VENUE/FORMAT ================== The workshop will be held in Bydgoszcz, Poland, in conjunction with the 29th annual European Symposium on Research in Computer Security, ESORICS.
