Summary
It is not knowledge, but non-knowledge that determines modern regulatory practice. Legal practice can no longer understand technical phenomena such as blockchain and yet must still regulate them. Sociological theory teaches that modern regulation is only possible through trust in the information processing power of others when dealing competently with one's own non-knowledge.
