Abstract

The chapter begins by defining blockchain technology and its initial use case in Bitcoin. It then delves into the rapid growth of blockchain applications across sectors like supply chain management, IoT, healthcare, and energy markets. The study focuses on the bibliometric analysis of blockchain publications in finance, economics, and social sciences, revealing trends in publication types, countries, and authors. The analysis shows that China leads in the number of publications, but the USA has the highest-quality research as measured by citations. The University of Surrey in the UK is highlighted for its significant contributions to the field. The chapter concludes with recommendations for future research and acknowledges the limitations of the study, such as the focus on English-language publications and the time frame up to March 2021.
