Abstract

Blockchain and cryptoassets are transforming how business is conducted. Leaders from Canadian practice provide insights on how consultants, standard setters, auditors, and regulators have been getting involved to support business and work through the challenges to raise funds, report to investors, and protect the public interest in a blockchain‐enabled world. These leaders share the challenges and opportunities they see, and the role accountants can play, including how educators and researchers can help. La chaîne de blocs et les cryptoactifs transforment la manière de faire des affaires. Des chefs de file dans leur domaine au Canada fournissent un aperçu de la façon dont les consultants, les organismes de normalisation, les auditeurs et les organismes de réglementation contribuent à soutenir les activités des entreprises et à relever les défis liés à la collecte de fonds, à la communication d'information aux investisseurs et à la protection de l'intérêt public dans un monde sécurisé par la technologie de la chaîne de blocs. Ces chefs de file présentent les défis et occasions qu'ils entrevoient, et le rôle que peuvent jouer les comptables, notamment la contribution que peuvent apporter les professeurs et chercheurs du domaine de la comptabilité.Mots clés : Chaîne de blocs; Cryptoactifs; Cryptomonnaies; Comptabilité; Audit
