This website is the result of reflexions and research of a team of 12 students. The goal was to understand all the different aspects of the controversy regarding the blockchain and cryptocurrencies in general. To do so, we started to read texts from the scientific literature, studying the context around it, then looking at the press to finally work on the internet sources. After all the readings, we were able to create a mind map to link the different aspects that emerged from our findings, in a comprehensive and organised all. The mind map was the first step of the website’s creation, and all the architecture is built around it. The idea of this website is to set up a network of concepts and different key features revolving around the core idea of the blockchain.

As it is a collective work, the creation of the content is similar to the building of a blockchain: each one of us added a new chapter based on its research, and if the majority (and then all of us) would approve it, the block would be added to the chain. The first block is the centre of the mind map, the essence of the blockchain itself. The other nodes of the network are the different concept we chose to focus on. Each node is linked to the center, but as well as the rest of the other nodes, just like in a P2P network. The links are the #, which point to other concepts. The goal was to find a way to create a holistic description of the controversy. So there is no right or wrong order to navigate the website, the reader just have to follow his curiosity.

Please do not hesitate to use the search bar (on the main page), as well as the Index.
