We look at the problem of lacuna in contract law resulting from fast development of technologies and their active use in the modern society. We analyze and structure legal acts regulating electronic contracts of purchase and sale as well as qualification features of the contract in question. We consider issues of making contracts in digital environment by the example of smart contracts by comparing them with other contracts made relying on the Internet; pre-requisites of making a smart contract and ways of integrating them in modern contract law are studied. |
