Considering the current diffusion of blockchain technology in the most different fields, ranging from public governance to economics, from contractual applications to health, the contribution addresses the issue of the legal regulation of this new technology, precisely because of its vast applications. From the comparison between the European model and the American one, the approach of the European legislator ‒ despite the delay with which the institutions have addressed the issue, seems to show, as already happened in other areas, a more 'social oriented' perspective and based on a sort of 'democratization' of data compared to the American approach, more 'business oriented', where the scholars have already had the opportunity to investigate this issue, especially in the field of corporate law. Aware of the complexity of the phenomenon at issue, due to its intrinsic dynamism, the intention is to highlight the opportunity to adopt a method known as "regulatory sandbox", to adequately interpret the naturally transnational character of the subject under analysis.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among American women (American Cancer Society [ACS], 2016b). Adolescents and young adults (AYAs) as a group have a worse prognosis when compared to older adults (e.g., Tichy, Lim, & Anders, 2013). Due to limited understanding of the biology of cancers for AYAs, inadequate representation of AYAs in clinical trials, and AYAs' unique psychosocial healthcare needs, the prognosis for this group, as compared to older women, is comparatively poor. One step in addressing the survival gap for AYAs is to explore the developmental and psychosocial factors that shape their illness experiences. This qualitative study explored the illness experiences of women diagnosed with breast cancer between the ages of 18 and 39 years old. Using a phenomenological approach, 23 breast cancer survivors were interviewed using a semi-structured interview. Findings indicated the centrality of developmental, sociocultural, and psychosocial systems in shaping women's health care experiences. Future studies should explore the ways in which medical providers attend to these systems across the breast cancer trajectory.
