Chapter 1: A Literature Review in Support of Blockchain Technologies

Blockchain technology has to be one of the biggest innovations of the 21st century given the ripple effect it is having on various sectors from financial to manufacturing as well as education. Unknown to many is the fact that Blockchain history dates back to the early 1990s. Since its popularity started growing a few years back, a number of applications have cropped up all but underlining the kind of impact it is destined to have as the race for digital economies heats up. This chapter examines the literature on Blockchain technologies and potential benefits of Blockchain technologies wherever it is used. This research is being carried out because there is no literature review on Blockchain Technology, and so, this chapter will ease the research of the scholars who want to know about Blockchain Technology. This research is important because this chapter will make people aware about Blockchain and all the places it is used and how people can benefit from this technology. Search terms identified more than 30 papers in support of blockchain technologies. The methodology used to carry out the research is also discussed in this chapter, such as various databases that were searched using different search terms. From the papers identified, specific criteria were then applied to identify appropriate articles. Data analysis verified the purpose of blockchain, categories of blockchain and alternatives to blockchain. The findings revealed that blockchain is one of the leading technologies in the world currently that possesses one of the more secure platforms for carrying out any task.
