Abstract
The term trustless transactions refers to the notion that blockchain technologies enable trust where it wouldn't normally exist so that even strangers can transact online with confidence without the need for costly and cumbersome third party authentication. But what happens when technologies designed to automate 'trust' amongst strangers are applied to creative collaborations between colleagues? By enabling data sharing between distributed, but linked ledgers accessed by a team of co-operate and separate entities blockchain technologies are increasingly framed as tools for collaborative business model. This study explores that potential in the context of the games industry.
