Princeton University established the Princeton Center for the Decentralization of Power Through Blockchain Technology, known as DeCenter, in March 2022 to support interdisciplinary blockchain research. Seed funding for DeCenter came from a combined major gift by four Princeton alumni: Peter L. Briger Jr., Joseph M. Lubin, Daniel W. Morehead, and Michael E. Novogratz. The center is designed to advance broad research inquiry rather than to advocate for cryptocurrencies or any specific blockchain application.
Princeton University is also affiliated with the Center for Information Technology Policy, which examines the intersection of digital technology and public life, and is a member of the Ripple University Blockchain Research Initiative. On the educational side, Princeton offers the online course "Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency Technologies" alongside undergraduate and graduate courses covering blockchain and decentralized finance.
