The Blockchain-GDPR paradox

Andries Van Humbeeck

Journal of Data Protection & Privacy, 2019, vol. 2, issue 3, 208-212

Abstract: This paper highlights certain aspects of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which are incompatible or sometimes counter-productive with certain Blockchain technologies. These topics are discussed based on an example of multiple organisations working together while employing private/permissioned Blockchain technology. The goal of this paper is to show the reader that making Blockchain technology compliant with the GDPR has both benefits and disadvantages.
