“…For any modification in the data, a massive amount of computational power is required because, to do so, an attacker has to change the hashes of each block from the current to the genesis block. The genesis block is the first block created by the blockchain creator, and subsequent blocks are added after the genesis block by the network nodes (miners in the Bitcoin blockchain) [37]. Blocks contain difficulty level; socalled nonce is important for miners to solve to append a block to the latest copy of the blockchain [38], [39], [40].…”

Mobile smart contracts (MSCs) are essential to facilitate quick, safe, and decentralized transactions on mobile blockchain networks. Scalable blockchain solutions facilitate the establishment of a mobile blockchain ecosystem characterized by enhanced resilience and adaptability. This encourages an increase in the number of users and, thus, spreads the adoption of blockchain technology in the mobile domain. With the inception of blockchain technology, a wide range of applications use smart contracts due to their high customizability. However, problems with scalability and resource-intensive consensus procedures prevent their general use. Therefore, by conducting a systematic survey using Kitchenham's guidelines of available scalable blockchains and consensus methods, this work seeks to identify and analyze these constraints. Out of a preliminary pool of 2,073 publications, our study, which consists of 25 selected studies, identifies 12 consensus mechanisms and 13 scalable blockchain systems. Our investigation shows that, despite the wide range of techniques, no existing blockchain solution provides the scalability and lightweight operating requirements to implement smart contracts on mobile devices. This realization draws attention to a significant gap in academic and industry-driven blockchain research that may have implications for the creation of MSCs. Our findings encourage academics to explore scalable and energy-efficient blockchain technology, targeting the creation of more approachable smart contracts designed with mobile devices in mind.INDEX TERMS Blockchain, smart contract, scalability, consensus mechanism, proof-of-stake, proof-of-Work I. INTRODUCTIONT HE aim of this study is real-world impacts on Web3 adoption by mobile device users, where Web3 mobile adoption is critical to its success. Recently, Web3 has gained tremendous attention, and following major analysts such as Gartner [1] and Harvard Business Review [2], [3], [4], it will stay with us in the future. The Web3 vision takes blockchain to the next level by making disintermediation ubiquitous -establishing disintermediation not only for basic payments but also for a wide range of financial services, digital identities, data, and business models [5], [6]. As such, Web3 consolidates and integrates the fragmented landscape of specific blockchain visions expressed in the many initial coin offerings (ICO) that we have seen over the past decade. According to Jin and Parrot, ''Web3 is our chance to make a better Internet'' [3] by making Web3 ''owned and operated by its users'' [3]. However, a critical success factor for Web3 to take off is its acceptance by users of mobile devices. According to the International Telecommunications Union (ITU), in 2022, ''mobile continues to dominate as the platform of choice for online access'' [7] and "Internet use is becoming as ubiquitous as mobile phones" [7].

“…Homomorphic encryption technology is adopted to overcome the problems of raw data leakage and single point trust, and support the calculation of encrypted IoT data. Li et al 29 solved the privacy leakage problem of data sharing in smart grid scenarios based on blockchain and multi‐receiver encryption technology. They adopted off‐chain storage technology to improve the scalability of blockchain, and also proposed a compensation mechanism for user privacy loss.…”

With the advancement of information technology, electronic contracts are gradually replacing paper contracts. Blockchain can serve as a decentralized trusted third party to help signatories solve the fairness of electronic contract signing. However, most of the existing blockchain‐based contract signing protocols are only applicable to two‐party signing, and lack the supervision of the contract and the protection of its confidentiality under supervision. This article proposes a privacy‐preserving blockchain‐based contract signing system with multi‐party supervision (CSS), in which multiple supervisors are set up to supervise contracts by voting. Before supervision, an identity‐based multi‐receiver re‐encryption algorithm is used to encrypt the contract, which takes less computation and can control the access rights of different supervisors, thus ensuring the privacy of the contract. Security analysis shows that the proposed CSS system enjoys unforgeability, non‐repudiation and fairness of electronic contract signing, and realizes privacy protection and access control under multi‐party supervision. Performance analysis demonstrates the high efficiency of our construction.
