In this paper, we use a Delphi approach to investigate whether, and to what extent, blockchain- based applications might affect firms' organizations, innovations, and strategies by 2030, and, consequently, which societal areas may be mainly affected.

Abstract

In this paper, we use a Delphi approach to investigate whether, and to what extent, blockchain- based applications might affect firms' organizations, innovations, and strategies by 2030, and, consequently, which societal areas may be mainly affected. We provide a deep understanding of how the adoption of this technology could lead to changes in Europe over multiple dimensions, ranging from business to culture and society, policy and regulation, economy, and technology. From the projections that reached a significant consensus and were given a high probability of occurrence by the experts, we derive four scenarios built around two main dimensions: The digitization of assets and the change in business models.
