“…In most cases, these actions are transactions in which a pre-determined amount is sent to a specific address. Ethereum is measured by market capitalization, the second largest crypto-currency, and is therefore the most famous public BC supporting Smart Contracts [18] (p. 93).…”

“…Smart Contracts come with many problems, which is one reasons why there are hardly any real applications of Smart Contracts in SCM in the literature. The problems can be divided into four categories, which are described in more detail in the next section: programming, security, data protection and performance problems [18] (p. 94).…”

“…There is a dependency on time stamps; at Ethereum, for example, the execution of the contract may depend on Miner if two dependent transactions update the same Smart Contract in the same block. Other problems include transaction dependency, criminal activities and untrusted data feeds [18] (p. 94).…”

The most successful applications of Blockchain Technology are still in the area of crypto-currencies, although both scientists and practitioners have discovered the potential of Blockchain Technology in Supply Chain Management. There is a significant theoretical literature on Blockchain Technology, but there exists a lack of published case studies and concrete examples. This paper discusses whether this shortcoming is due to insufficient added value of the technology and identifies other possible reasons. Furthermore, this paper introduces Blockchain Technology, describes the origins of Bitcoin, the structure and core properties of the Blockchain, and examines smart contracts. A comprehensive and structured literature analysis identifies concepts for the use of Blockchain Technology in logistics in terms of economic benefits. Additionally, a cluster analysis regarding the topics of the relevant literature was conducted. One finding of the study is that Blockchain Technology is particularly worthwhile for goods with a high value. Moreover, if the trade volume of the respective goods is low, the advantages of BCT are maximized. At the same time, the demand for transparency and immutability of data must be more important than the protection of sensitive data. In addition to concrete use cases of Blockchains, an exemplary logistics process will be presented within the Luxury Supply Chain, showing the advantages of Blockchain Technology for each individual process step.

“…The ubiquitous digitalization of modern society inevitably entails integration of information technology in legal reality. All kinds of economic and legal relationships become more and more digitalized and it is especially vivid nowadays with the development of blockchain technology (Abdelhamid & Hassan, 2019). Today it is very difficult to imagine the functioning of government bodies and officials without the corresponding automated information systems.…”

“…As per the existing literature, some researchers classify blockchain technology into three broad divisions, namely public (or permissionless), private (or permissioned), and hybrid (or consortium). [24][25][26][27] More or less, these different types of blockchain indirectly represents the different types of consensus various applications provide. 28 Figure 7 illustrates the different types of blockchain, and Table 4 specifies the comparison amongst them.…”

Blockchain Technology, the fundamental technology behind Bitcoin, has drawn considerable recognition ever since its origin. Its potential has gained significant interest in various applications, varying from the music industry, financial services, Internet-of-Things (IoT), smart grid, edge computing, cybersecurity, and the healthcare industry. However, the information is divided amongst several intermediaries involved with adverse impacts on data quality in the healthcare domain. In the near future, blockchain technology can reshape the way the healthcare industry works by providing personalized and reliable patient data management, reforming the traditional healthcare practices, secure mechanisms for data sharing, efficient pharmaceutical supply chain management, and drug traceability and many more. In this study, an extensive literature review has been provided that includes the different prospects of using blockchain technology in healthcare. The review investigates the work done to enable the amalgamation of IoT and Blockchain in the health ecosystem. Significant blockchain-based healthcare use cases such as data storage, data sharing, drug traceability, clinical trials, and remote patient monitoring are investigated. Further, the Internet of Things and blockchain technology-based SWOT (Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, and Threat) analysis and the challenges linked in the healthcare domain because of the enactment of IoT and blockchain technology are discussed to support advanced studies in this domain.
