WP – 2024-08-11 – Anders Brownworth, Jon Durfee, Michael Junho Lee and Antoine Martin: Regulating decentralized systems: evidence from sanctions on Tornado Cash

August 10, 2024

Blockchain-based systems are run by a decentralized network of participants and are designed to be censorship-resistant. We use sanctions imposed by the U.S. Department of Treasury on Tornado Cash (TC), a smart contract protocol, to study the impact and effectiveness of regulation in decentralized systems. We document an immediate and lasting impact on TC following the sanction announcement, measured by market reaction, transaction volume, and diversity of users. Still, net flows into TC contracts recover to and surpass pre-announcement levels for most pools, supporting viability of TC. Evidence on cooperation at the settlement layer is mixed: the aggregate share of non-cooperative blocks increases over time, but a shrinking number of actors process Tornado Cash transactions,

WP – 2024-08-07 – Gabriel Züllig and Valentin Grob: Corporate leverage and the effects of monetary policy on investment: a reconciliation of micro and macro elasticities

August 6, 2024

We investigate how the level of corporate leverage affects firms’ investment response to monetary policy shocks. Based on novel aggregate time series estimates, leverage acts amplifying, whereas in the cross section of firms, higher leverage predicts a muted response to monetary policy. We use a heterogeneous firm model to show that in general equilibrium, both empirical findings can be true at the same time: When the average firm has lower leverage and therefore reduces its investment demand more strongly after a contractionary shock, the price of capital declines sharply, which incentivizes all firms regardless of their leverage to invest relatively more, muting the aggregate decline of investment. We provide empirical evidence supporting this hypothesis. Overall, if there
