Abstract

Blockchain technology has revolutionized financial and administrative systems through decentralization, transparency, and immutability. These attributes enable specialized hardware applications while paradoxically generating challenges regarding information governance and cross-border regulatory compliance. A fundamental contradiction exists between blockchain's inherent characteristics—trustless transactions, immutable data storage, and disintermediation—versus established cyberspace legal frameworks demanding data erasure rights and intellectual property protection. This analysis examines jurisdictional variations in regulatory approaches, with particular focus on UAE's implementation strategies. The research contributes to blockchain governance discourse by identifying cybersecurity vulnerabilities and advocating for regulatory innovation that balances technological advancement with ethical considerations, enabling sustainable adoption.
