Abstract

Blockchain and cryptocurrency are some of the buzzwords in recent years. This chapter provides an organized review of literature on blockchain-based applications in various domains. The main purpose of this study is to explore the latest trends of blockchain technology and its applications and to focus on certain features of this disruptive technology, which can transform traditional business practices in the near future. There are many researchers working in this field for more than 10 years, and they have published their articles in highly reputed journals. Also, many reports and white papers are available. Therefore, a systematic collection of those articles and reviews of this literature will be very much helpful for the upcoming researchers. In this paper, a detailed classification of blockchain-based applications from different domains such as land registration, healthcare, Internet of things, security, and the latest areas for research are presented. The challenges and issues that were identified from various works of literature are presented for deeper understanding. Also, based on the review, the identified gaps in the research and the potential future work directions are given in predicting the importance of value for the researchers and academicians.
