During the last few years, the growing interest and popularity in
crypto currencies have fostered developments in research and practices
in relevant fields. Academics and practitioners, alike, are facing
challenges related to the ever increasing required infrastructure for
mining crypro-currencies, the operational aspects of exchanges, the
regulatory frameworks that are required for the new form of payment
instruments without hindering the growth of the new economy and the
relation between crypto-currencies and official payment methods. 

Nowadays, addressing such challenges becomes essential for developing
new services and possibly business models that contain the prospect of
restructuring financial systems. 

This workshop  invites researchers and business experts to share
knowledge and competencies for organizational and practical apsects of
crypto-currency systems. We expect participants to  present research
papers, comment on business cases,  hold tutorial sessions or
demonstrate systems, tools and other related issues needed to:    
	(a)  manage crypto-currencies 
	(b)  optimize operational aspects of crypto-currency exchanges and 
	(c)  assess and make informed decisions related to digital currencies.
