“…The use of trading cards and Lego bricks, creates space for participants to wildly imagine and project various socioeconomic imaginaries onto a radical technology. By contrast, the BlocKit [24] toolkit works towards a high technical fidelity of the Bitcoin Blockchain. However, while this tangible kit develops specific mental models about DLTs, there is less opportunity for alternative and creative thinking about the functioning and applications of DLTs.…”

“…Prior work highlights the value of props and artefacts in communicating complex networked technologies (e.g. [4,24,30,36]); this underpinned the design of PizzaBlock. For most people, it would be unrealistic to imagine they could equitably participate in the design of a DLT network without some prior engagement like this.…”

“…As exemplars, Speed and Maxwell [30] introduced 'BlockExchange' -a Lego-based trading workshop, which used abstract cards, forms and rules to help participants understand how DLTs could lead to radically new ways of recording and sharing value. BlocKit [24] offers a much more literal and technically accurate tangible model to explain specifically how the Bitcoin Blockchain functions. Going further still, the GeoCoin mobile app is offered as 'unfinished software' in workshops where participants can iterate and bodystorm [34] new applications for location-based 'smart contracts' [32].…”

This pictorial describes in detail the design, and multiple iterations, of PizzaBlock -a role-playing game and design workshop to introduce non-technical participants to decentralised identity management systems. We have so far played this game with six different audiences, with over one hundred participants -iterating the design of the artefacts and gameplay each time. In this pictorial, we reflect on this RtD project to unpack: a) How we designed artefacts and roleplay to explore decentralised technologies and networks; b) How we communicated the key challenges and parameters of a complex system, through the production of a playable, interactive, analogue representation of that technology; c) How we struck a balance between playful tangible gameplay and high-fidelity technical analogy; and d) How approaches like PizzaBlock invite engagement with complex infrastructures and can support more participatory approaches to their design.

“…The availability of open-source and community forums will help reduce the level of development complexity, thus will gain acceptance from management and technical perspective [14]. Furthermore, the simplification of the process and the usage of common language did help in the ease of developing a physical prototype [23]. Li et al [12] explained that using hyperledger fabric is easy due to free participation and easy access to information.…”

The adoption factors of two-factors authentication in blockchain technology for banking and financial institutions

Malaysian <span>banks and financial organisations urgently require a secure authentication mechanism. However, there is a lack of research on the factors that drive blockchain authentication technology adoption, notably in Malaysian banks. This study identified the factors impacting adopting blockchain authentication technology in Malaysia. This document will be a roadmap for replacing existing technology utilizing the traditional transaction authorization code (TAC) via a short messaging service (SMS). In addition, this study looks into the elements that influence the new blockchain authentication technology's acceptability in Malaysia. The data was gathered from articles and research papers written by other scholars on blockchain authentication. To examine and categorise the aspects that influence the acceptance of blockchain authentication technology, we used risk management in technology (RMiT) standards to map them. Based on the result, security risk, regulatory support, technology latency, and technology complexity have been established as components of blockchain authentication adoption factors that can be a guideline to implement blockchain authentication in banking and financial institutions in Malaysia. In addition, the findings can contribute as a reference for future researchers to develop models or guidelines for blockchain authentication methods in banking and financial institutions.</span>

We present a survey of toolkits employed in research workshop approaches within TIPS (Trust, Identity, Privacy and Security) domains. Our survey was developed within wider design research to develop prototypes that support people in evaluating whether to trust that an online actor's identity is not recently faked, and that a service they are registering personal information with is legitimate; and a subsequent project involving a tool that invites people to reflect on the cumulative risks of sharing apparently harmless personal information online. The radically multidisciplinary nature of both these TIPS projects has determined that we create a research space to promote exchange to, as design researchers, better understand the 'opaque' immediate and longer term implications of our proposed services and invite cross-disciplinary discussion towards interdisciplinary understandings. This paper is intended as an at-a-glance resource, or indeed toolkit, for researchers from a range of disciplinary backgrounds working on TIPS research to inform on various different material engagements, with research stakeholders, through creative workshop approaches. Our survey focused on the literature from Design (especially Participatory Design and Codesign), Human Computer Interaction (HCI) and cybersecurity. It comprises 27 papers or toolkit examples organised across: review papers; example toolkits; case studies reporting relevant toolkit use; applied toolkits for learning/knowledge exchange; research toolkits focused on demonstrating a methodological-conceptual approach (some problematising emergent or near-future technologies); and two papers that straddled the latter two categories, focusing on future practical application. We begin with an overview of our rationale and method before presenting each group of texts in a table alongside a summary discussion. We go on to discuss the various material components, affordances and terminology of the toolkits along with core concerns often left out of the reporting of research; before going on to recognise toolkits not so much as things that diagnose and fix things, but as a loose collection of readily available material and wider resources, used in particular participatory approaches, which together help account for techno-relational differences and contingencies in TIPS-related fields.
