This book is the f irst to document how security occurs within decentralised blockchain commu nities from a sociological perspective. It provokes questions relevant to the Metagov community of non-state governance\, hacker ethics\, and the fu ture of cybersecurity.\n\n​Kelsie's book explores this topic through a d eep ethnographic dive into blockchain ecosystems—with a focus on securit y not only as a technical property\, but also a social practice.\n\n​The book draws on years of ethnographic research conducted as major incidents unfolded across blockchain ecosystems—often in real time. It follows th e engineers\, white-hat hackers\, and other community responders who colle ctively respond\, rescue\, pause\, repair\, postmortem and prepare for the next crises (notably\, the not-for-profit Security Alliance\, or SEAL).\n \n​Links to Kelsie's work:\n\n​Github: https://kelsien.github.io/\n\n ​Read her blog post "8 Critical Insights from My Forthcoming Book on Blo ckchain Security": https://open.substack.com/pub/kelsienabben/p/8-critical -insights-from-my-forthcoming?r=yper&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web\n\n ​Kelsie Nabben is an ethnographic researcher specialising in the social impacts of emerging technologies\, notably decentralised digital infrastru cture and Artificial Intelligence. Her post-doctoral research focuses on a ccountability in blockchain governance\, specifically in digital contexts of private governance. She completed her PhD at RMIT University's Centre o f Excellence for Automated Decision-Making and Society on 'Resilience in d ecentralised technologies'. Nabben’s research involves analysis of the i nterplay between social and technical elements of digital infrastructure.\ n LOCATION:https://researchseminars.org/talk/Metagov/283/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
