The use of blockchain smart contracts for divorce property division has sparked controversy over potential gender bias. These contracts, designed to automate and transparently allocate assets, rely on predefined algorithms. Critics argue that such algorithms may perpetuate existing inequalities, as they often reflect the biases of their creators or historical data, which can disadvantage women due to traditional disparities in income, property ownership, or financial contributions. Proponents claim blockchain ensures fairness through impartial execution. However, without careful design, smart contracts risk embedding systemic gender biases, raising ethical concerns. Addressing this requires diverse development teams, transparent coding processes, and mechanisms to audit and adjust for equitable outcomes, ensuring blockchain serves as a tool for justice rather than reinforcing discrimination.
