摘要

本文重新考虑了不能作出跨期承诺的持久利益垄断者的问题。买方的估价是二元的，而且是他的私人信息。卖方可以访问动态合同，并在每个时期决定是否部署前一时期的合同或用新合同替换它。本文的主要结论是，科斯猜想不成立:不管贴现系数如何，垄断者的收益都与低估值有界限。(凝胶d42, d82, d86, 12)

Smart Contracts and the Coase Conjecture

This paper reconsiders the problem of a durable-good monopolist who cannot make intertemporal commitments. The buyer’s valuation is binary and his private information. The seller has access to dynamic contracts and, in each period, decides whether to deploy the previous period’s contract or to replace it with a new one. The main result of the paper is that the Coase conjecture fails: the monopo-list’s payoff is bounded away from the low valuation irrespective of the discount factor. (JEL D42, D82, D86, L12)
