“…Even though the concept of cryptocurrency blockchain sources should be able to apply to other blockchains, there are some differences in the detailed mechanism (e.g., the transaction data structure and mining protocol) that need to be considered in the design of visualization systems. The visualization of private and consortium blockchains, or blockchains for non-cryptocurrency use cases such as in healthcare [26], mobility [18], supply chain management [38], or for government services [47] are fruitful areas for future works.…”

We present a systematic review of visual analytics tools used for the analysis of blockchains-related data. The blockchain concept has recently received considerable attention and spurred applications in a variety of domains. We systematically and quantitatively assessed 76 analytics tools that have been proposed in research as well as online by professionals and blockchain enthusiasts. Our classification of these tools distinguishes (1) target blockchains, (2) blockchain data, (3) target audiences, (4) task domains, and (5) visualization types. Furthermore, we look at which aspects of blockchain data have already been explored and point out areas that deserve more investigation in the future.

“…Because of its decentralized characteristics, Blockchain generates reliability and decreases the danger when searching for an unfamiliar party to enter into a company agreement [2]. The drastic rise in blockchain technology has created many fresh possibilities for implementation, including apps for healthcare [1]. The terms ' blockchain' and' distributed ledger technology'(' DLT') are frequently used interchangeably Also suggest in [4] a method of securely embedding covert Blockchain messages.…”

Encrypted algorithm used is a decentralized technique. It has enough power to resolve any business related issues. Cryptography secures the records in a blockchain transaction and each transaction is tied to previous transactions or records. One of blockchain's benefits is its inherent resiliency to cyber-attack. While not immune to all forms of cyber risk, blockchain's unique structure provides cyber security capabilities not present in traditional ledgers and other legacy technologies. The distributed architecture of an algorithm rise, the resiliency of the overall network from being exposed to compromise from a single access point or point of failure. Also improve the overall robustness and integrity of shared ledgers. The Merkle tree structure also help participants with enhanced transparency, making it much more difficult to corrupt blockchains through malware. Blockchains hosted on a cloud platform, cloud data owners prefer to outsource documents in an encrypted form for the secure infrastructure. Also the foundation of Bit coin is using blockchain data structure and now it has received extensive attentions recently. In this survey paper of privacy preserving algorithm author point out the advantages and usage of it through existing approach. Lastly, the author discuss the structure and main features of block chain are like Decentralization, Immutability Faster dealings, Transaction and validation happens in seconds etc. In This Survey paper author has discuss one challenge that the relationship between data will be normally concealed in the process of encryption, which will lead to significant search accuracy performance decrease while the volume of data dramatic high. For such challenges author in this paper will suggest some innovate ideas to get the efficient end product outcomes.

“…For example, the advantages of blockchain technology can be overshadowed by the intentionally resource intensive nature of their transaction verification process, which now menaces the climate on which we depend to survive [17]. There is previous research that has studied the relationship of sustainability with "bitcoin", "digital currency", "cryptocurrency", and "virtual currency" [29], or the relationship of sustainability with the "Energy Internet" [30]. From a legal point of view, smart contracts, in contrast to traditional contracts, should address issues such as trial risks, enforcement risks, and jurisdictional risks.…”

The advent and development of digital technologies has had a significant impact on the establishment of contracts. Smart contracts are designed as computer code containing instructions for executing user agreements, offering a technologically secure solution with numerous advantages and applications. However, smart contracts are not without their problems when we try to fit them into the traditional system of contract law, and their presumed benefits can become shortcomings. Bibliometric studies can help to assess the current state of science in a specific subject and support decision making and research direction. Here, this bibliometric study is used to analyze global trend research in relation to this novel contractual methodology, the smart contract, which seems to have experienced exponential growth since 2014. Specially, this analysis was focused on the main countries involved and the institutions that lead this research worldwide. On the other hand, the indexations of these works are analyzed according to major scientific areas and the keywords of all the works, to detect the subjects to which they are grouped. Community detection has been used to establish the relationship between countries researching in this area, and six clusters have been identified, around which all the work related to this topic is grouped. This work shows the temporal evolution of research related to smart contracts, highlighting that there are two trends—e-commerce and smart power grids. From the perspective of driving sustainability, smart contracts could provide a contribution in the near future.
