“…However, the blockchain technique can be used to facilitate communications between fog nodes and IoT devices. Huang et al [57] proposed a fair payment scheme for outsourcing computations of Fog devices. Based on the bitcoin, this scheme considers the following security properties, namely, completeness, fairness, and accountability.…”

This paper presents a comprehensive survey of the existing blockchain protocols for the Internet of Things (IoT) networks. We start by describing the blockchains and summarizing the existing surveys that deal with blockchain technologies. Then, we provide an overview of the application domains of blockchain technologies in IoT, e.g, Internet of Vehicles, Internet of Energy, Internet of Cloud, Fog computing, etc. Moreover, we provide a classification of threat models, which are considered by blockchain protocols in IoT networks, into five main categories, namely, identity-based attacks, manipulationbased attacks, cryptanalytic attacks, reputation-based attacks, and service-based attacks. In addition, we provide a taxonomy and a side-by-side comparison of the state-of-the-art methods towards secure and privacy-preserving blockchain technologies with respect to the blockchain model, specific security goals, performance, limitations, computation complexity, and communication overhead. Based on the current survey, we highlight open research challenges and discuss possible future research directions in the blockchain technologies for IoT.

“…By using Bitcoin's confirmation system, Huang [35] is able to generate a model that both parties will benefit: there is now an implicit guarantee that the worker will receive compensation for this work done if there is no substandard or dubious work submitted, regardless of the outsourcer's malicious intent or otherwise, and a third-party will be able to help the outsourcer clawback his deposit to the worker, should the worker fail to perform satisfactorily or at all.…”

“…Moreover, since the blockchain has an openness attribute, it can provide transparency in data when applied to an area requiring the disclosure of data. Due to such strengths, it can be utilized in diverse areas including the financial sector and the Internet of Things (IoT) environment and its applications are expected to expand [2][3][4][5][6].…”

Blockchain has drawn attention as the next-generation financial technology due to its security that suits the informatization era. In particular, it provides security through the authentication of peers that share virtual cash, encryption, and the generation of hash value. According to the global financial industry, the market for security-based blockchain technology is expected to grow to about USD 20 billion by 2020. In addition, blockchain can be applied beyond the Internet of Things (IoT) environment; its applications are expected to expand. Cloud computing has been dramatically adopted in all IT environments for its efficiency and availability. In this paper, we discuss the concept of blockchain technology and its hot research trends. In addition, we will study how to adapt blockchain security to cloud computing and its secure solutions in detail.
