OUR VISION

Blockchain, a decentralized method of creating and disseminating cryptographically-secured electronic records, has an incredible potential to reduce costs across industries and professions, including the legal profession.

The BCLS was established to gather graduate and undergraduate students who are interested in blockchain or other emerging technologies. With the help of BCLS, students write about issues of and attain internships related to, blockchain technology. We seek to provide meaningful and unique networking opportunities for our members by hosting thought-provoking forums and events in the Washington D.C. metropolitan area.
