블록체인을 이용한 사회적가치 거래소의 설립과 운영 가능성

초록

In this paper, we outline the possibility of a social value exchange (SOVEX) that can engage in trading that is of social value, and which can stimulate growth in the social economy sector. SOVEX is an envisaged online platform that could engage in trading and investments that are of social value. In order to reduce the transaction costs and enhance the understanding of participants, SOVEX would operate on the basis of a peer to peer (P2P) system. It could also be called a system of social decentralized finance (DeFi) because it would use decentralized blockchain to store transaction data. It is possible to design the cryptoasset that would be issued by SOVEX so that it could reflect the value of social capital in the social economy ecosystem. Then, moral hazard could be minimized through the incentive structure created by the exchange, while information asymmetry would be mitigated through the transparent nature of blockchain technology. This paper concludes by emphasizing the non-market capability of the exchange operator, since new legislation and communi- cation on the part of SOVEX with various stakeholders to ensure productive regulations come about would be essential.
