In this special episode of Law.com's Unprecedented podcast, we talk with Aaron Wright, an associate clinical professor at Cardozo Law School in New York City and director of the school's Blockchain Project. Cardozo has been significantly expanding its initiatives with the technology since 2014, helping major blockchain projects like Ethereum and teaching its students how to code smart contracts. Wright talks about his forthcoming book co-authored with Primavera De Filippi of Harvard's Berkman Klein Center, "Blockchain and the Law: The Rule of Code," and what blockchain will mean for the legal profession—beyond the hype.
