Talk Abstract:
Blockchain is emerging as a game changing technology in many industries. Although it is increasingly capturing the business community's attention, a comprehensive overview of commercially available applications was lacking to date. Our research aimed at fill this gap. Firstly, a structured approach to assess the application landscape of blockchain technologies will be proposed. To build our framework, we relied on largely accepted classifications of blockchains, on the base of protocols, consensus mechanisms and ownership type, as well as on the most cited application areas emerging from the literature. Then, the results emerged from a market analysis performed on a database of 460 released blockchains will be presented.
