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.
