The promise of peer-to-peer trading? The potential impact of blockchain on the actor configuration in the Dutch electricity system

Blockchain e a Perspectiva Tecnológica para a Administração Pública: Uma Revisão Sistemática

“…Given the distributed way data is stored in Blockchain, applications related to logistics, land properties, electricity, government payments and smart contracts turn out to be appropriate, since the different actors involved in each process would benefit from the distributed ledger (Atzori, 2018;Buth, Wieczorek, & Verbong, 2019;Engin & Treleaven, 2019;Kossow, 2019;Li, Greenwood, & Kassem, 2019;Marchionni, 2018;Maza, 2019;Ølnes, Ubacht, & Janssen, 2017;Thakur, Doja, Dwivedi, Ahmad, & Khadanga, 2019). Polls, Supply Chain, Digital Identity and Building Construction share Blockchain's data processing efficiency; the technology stands out for its security in storing data, as they are important information, be it for social control -elections and document maintenance -or for the control of buildings and food and/or medication, and the public administration must control or regulate these processes (Abelseth, 2018;Johnson, 2019;Kossow, 2019;Lander & Cooper, 2017;Li et al, 2019;Tseng, Liao, Chong, & Liao, 2018).…”

“…Among the potential impacts from the results obtained (Figure 4), it is demonstrated that the use of Blockchain leads to improvements in data storage, which could result in the reduction of bureaucratic processes, speeding up data processing and allowing, for example, the use of smart contracts. Furthermore, Blockchain is an important tool for sharing information such as clinical pathological data, drug distribution and supply chain stages of a wide number of products, contributing to more efficient surveillance and control (Abelseth, 2018;Atzori, 2018;Berg et al, 2018;Buth et al, 2019;Engin & Treleaven, 2019;Johnson, 2019;Kossow, 2019;Li et al, 2019;Marchionni, 2018;Thakur et al, 2019;Tseng et al, 2018).…”

“…This change would begin with the reorganization of public administrative structures and could lead to a state reform because, with the new operating dynamics being provided by Blockchain -such as efficiency in data management -institutions, government bodies or sectors may become obsolete, needing to alter their activity or functionality (Berg et al, 2018;Marchionni, 2018;Ølnes et al, 2017). It should also be considered that the use of Blockchain technology requires greater cooperation between State, society and market, given that technology has its core in sharing the database, generating transparency and accountability, making it necessary to build permanent dialogue structures among actors (Abelseth, 2018;Buth et al, 2019;Scholl & Bolívar, 2019). However, for the implementation of Blockchain in the current context, the legal adaptation of this technology to existing structures is imperative (Abelseth, 2018;Engin & Treleaven, 2019;Kossow, 2019;Scholl & Bolívar, 2019;Ølnes et al, 2017), given that modern states have as their fundamental characteristic the legitimacy of law enforcement.…”

A Systematic Review of Blockchain Literature in Logistics and Supply Chain Management: Identifying Research Questions and Future Directions

“…(1) Network effects seem also to contribute to the rapid internationalization of blockchain start-ups [39] (2) Blockchain can influence the actor configuration of the electricity system using social network analysis Buth et al [40] (3) Network theory was used to develop a design for a blockchain-based accounting information system [41] To [42] (1) Smart contracts lead to an increase in competencies, and have the potential to automate processes by running rules encoded in computer programs [43] (2) Blockchain can help to make the customer order management process more efficient, but the evaluation of resources and capabilities is necessary [34] (3) The resource-based view can help to answer questions pertaining to the management of organizational structures [44] What blockchain-related resources generate competitive advantage? How does blockchain change a company's core competencies?…”

“…For example, Queiroz and Wamba [58] drew on the emerging literature on blockchain and network theory to develop a technology acceptance model (TAM). Buth, Wieczorek and Verbong [40] used social network analysis to examine how blockchain can influence the actor configuration of the electricity system in the Netherlands. McCallig, Robb and Rohde [41] developed a design for a blockchain-based accounting information system using network analysis.…”
