Welcome to the UCL Blockchain Reading Group. We meet fortnightly to discuss papers on blockchain design and applications, with a focus on security and privacy.
We spend about 60 minutes per paper. 30-40 minutes are allotted to the main presentation, while the remaining time is spent on questions and answers or discussions. Slides are preferred but not mandatory. Usually you will find additional resources for the papers such as slides and videos on the conference website; feel free to reuse those during the meeting.
