The article is devoted to the study of prerequisites for the codification of competition protection legislation.The author starts from the history of competition law, which is divided into four stages, and comes to the conclusion that Russian competition law was formed after the transition of the Russian economy to the market and does not have continuity with pre-existing legislation.The study of the current state of competition law allowed the author to draw a conclusion about the relevance of its codification. This conclusion is justified, in particular, by the considerable volume of regulatory material that is devoted to the protection of competition, its distribution on different legislative acts, as well as the presence of internal conflicts and inconsistencies in it.

New technologies are assuming a prominent role in the transformation of economic and social systems and are capturing the interest of many businesses and international institutions. Blockchain is an emerging technology that is relevant in all sectors, as its applications can be adapted to multiple contexts with possible significant advantages for business. The ability to perform transactions without a central entity acting as a trust guarantor, typical of blockchain, offers the opportunity to rethink the way business processes are managed. Based on the case study methodology, this work aims to understand how blockchain could affect the business model in the banking sector and how the COVID-19 pandemic impacts the implementation of blockchain.

This paper looks at the opportunities and challenges of implementing blockchain technology across medical, finance and banking sectors, and provides a clear view which can enable Blockchain for more extents. After going through few articles and papers related to applications of Blockchain, we gained a vivid knowledge on pros and cons on Blockchain applications from each article. Few drawbacks that we encountered are using Power of Work (POW) in medical sector which is destroying the computing ability at a stage when system is getting bigger and eventually which is wasting lots of resources. One study over conceptual proposal on blockchain is the idea of using trade credit as the value of transactions, and this trade credit is in the scope of trade secret which improves trade confidentiality and makes it more secure. Moreover, centralization systems have few risks owing to their dependence on a high scale which could tamper the data or can even block access, change the rules and might even completely shut down the system. Few more drawbacks are designing and building a secure blockchain system is much more difficult on large-scale of banking sector with large database. To address these challenges, recent developments in blockchain technology are enabling novel opportunities in every possible sector by using Trust-worthy cloud, IoT and artificial intelligence, which makes it more powerful and secure. After analyzing Blockchain implementations and identifying their limitations, we conclude with several promising directions for future research.
