当代的电子媒介平台可以进行市场层次和个人交易，将复杂的人为决策与密集的计算和数据处理结合在一起，所有这些都在工程化的经济环境中相互作用。示例包括：在线市场，众包平台，频谱拍卖，金融平台，加密货币以及大规模匹配/分配系统，例如肾脏交换和公立学校选择系统。这些平台涵盖了越来越多的经济活动，并且正在改变市场和非市场交易的范围和效率。由于协调或信息摩擦而无法进行的某些形式的交换（集中肾脏交换，车辆共享）突然变得重要。以前被认为需要集中管理和监督的其他市场活动现在可以分散和自我调节（加密货币是最典型的例子）。此外，
Contemporary electronically mediated platforms for market-level and individual exchange combine complex human decisions with intensive computation and data processing, all interacting within an engineered economic environment. Examples include: online markets, crowdsourcing platforms, spectrum auctions, financial platforms, crypto currencies, and large scale matching/allocation systems such as kidney exchange and public school choice systems. These platforms encompass a growing slice of economic activity and are shifting the scope and efficiency of market and non-market exchanges. Some forms of exchange that were simply infeasible due to coordination or information frictions (centralized kidney exchange, vehicle sharing) are suddenly available and important. Other market activities that were previously thought to require centralization and oversight, can now be decentralized and self-regulated (crypto-currency being the leading example). Moreover, the technology enabling that decentralization (so-called blockchain) is likely to have many further applications.
