Yıl 2018, Sayı: 35, 29 - 42, 01.07.2018

Öz

Teknolojik gelişmeler, gittikçe önem kazanan yeni hukuki kavramların da önünü açmaktadır. Günlük hayatta, Özel Hukuk alanında en çok gerçekleştirilen hukuki işlem türü sözleşmelerdir. Bu özelliği itibarıyla, söz konusu teknolojik gelişmeler, Sözleşme Hukuku alanında üzerinde büyük ve hızlı bir etkiye sahip olmaktadır. Akıllı sözleşme (smart contract) kavramı da teknolojik gelişmelerin, Sözleşme Hukuku alanına getirdiği son gelişmelerden biridir. Esasen, akıllı sözleşme kavramı, adının uyandırdığı izlenimin aksine, yeni bir sözleşme türü olmayıp; sözleşmeden doğan borçların ifası bakımından önemli çözümler getiren bir kavramdır. Çalışmamızda, akıllı sözleşme kavramının tanımı yapıldıktan sonra, akıllı sözleşmenin teknik altyapısı ile ilgili temel bilgiler verilecek ve akıllı sözleşme sürecindeki işlemler hukuki yönden nitelendirilecek ve akıllı sözleşmenin avantajları ve dezavantajları ortaya konulacaktır. Ayrıca akıllı sözleşmelerin hukuki yönden sağlayacağı kolaylıklar ile uygulamada ortaya çıkabilecek olası sorunlar da tartışılacaktır.
