Tokenomics’ Scope
CBER-Tokenomics 2026, the 7th International Conference on Blockchain Economics, Security and Protocols, is a leading interdisciplinary forum focusing on the theory, design, analysis, implementation, and applications of blockchain economics, decentralized systems, and digital platforms. The conference brings together economists, computer scientists, finance researchers, and industry practitioners working at the frontier of digital assets and emerging technologies. Original interdisciplinary research connecting economic incentives and market design with distributed systems, networks, and system security is particularly encouraged.
Relevant topics include token and protocol design, decentralized finance, stablecoins and digital payments, DAOs and decentralized governance, tokenized real-world assets, prediction markets, AI agents and decentralized AI, as well as economic world models and applications of large language models to macroeconomic, financial, and economy-wide modelling. The program offers opportunities to engage with distinguished invited speakers and selected academic presentations. Full-length working papers from both the Economics and Computer Science tracks were invited for consideration for the main conference.
The Tokenomics Conference was founded by Vincent Danos (ENS), Maria Potop-Butucaru (Sorbonne University), Julien Prat (IP Paris), and Sara Tucci (CEA). Since 2026, the conference series has become one of the programs of the Crypto and Blockchain Economics Research Forum (CBER).
Dual Submission
Tokenomics 2026 offered a dual submission option with Management Science. Conference organizers may recommend a small set of papers submitted for presentation at the conference to the collaborating editors to be potentially invited for dual submissions to the journal. Authors were able to indicate whether they wanted their conference submission to be considered for potential recommendation to Management Science.
For more details about the dual submission, please check the “Policy for Dual Submissions Through Conferences” section in the Management Science submission guidelines: https://pubsonline.informs.org/page/mnsc/submission-guidelines.
