Abstract
As a disruptive technology, blockchain has become a strategic priority for many businesses. A vast amount of research exists on blockchain's innovative nature and immense potential for multiple industries. This study aims to synthesize the existing research to classify the findings into various themes and propose avenues for further research. A total of 2,360 academic articles were analyzed using the text-mining method of structural topic modeling. The identified fifteen topics were mapped to the four quadrants of the Datatopia model, leading to the development of the Datatopia-blockchain (DBlock) framework. The results present future scenarios that provide an understanding of what is known about blockchain, its characteristics, and potential research areas. The contributions to the theory and implications to the practitioners are discussed in detail.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Innovation and Knowledge (JIK) explores how innovation drives knowledge creation and vice versa, emphasizing that not all innovation leads to knowledge, but enduring innovation across diverse fields fosters theory and knowledge. JIK invites papers on innovations enhancing or generating knowledge, covering innovation processes, structures, outcomes, and behaviors at various levels. Articles in JIK examine knowledge-related changes promoting innovation for societal best practices.
JIK serves as a platform for high-quality studies undergoing double-blind peer review, ensuring global dissemination to scholars, practitioners, and policymakers who recognize innovation and knowledge as economic drivers. It publishes theoretical articles, empirical studies, case studies, reviews, and other content, addressing current trends and emerging topics in innovation and knowledge. The journal welcomes suggestions for special issues and encourages articles to showcase contextual differences and lessons for a broad audience.
In essence, JIK is an interdisciplinary journal dedicated to advancing theoretical and practical innovations and knowledge across multiple fields, including Economics, Business and Management, Engineering, Science, and Education.
