Abstract

Blockchain technology (BCT) provides a decentralized mechanism for ensuring security, verifiability, and service delivery by enabling distributed nodes to cooperatively validate transactions and smart contracts. Specifically, BCT ensures the continuous preservation of transaction records, which are verified through consensus mechanisms and secured using cryptographic techniques. Consequently, BCT has gained significant popularity among technology stakeholders, developers, companies, scholars, academics, and practitioners seeking to optimize processes, guarantee security, and enhance transparency. However, several aspects of BCT related to its development and implementation remain subject to misunderstanding, particularly with respect to its development frameworks, platforms, and scenarios of use (SoU) and applications. This narrative review presents the major BCT development frameworks, platforms, and SoU and applications as the central themes of the study. Furthermore, the review provides an empirical guide for BCT stakeholders, offering a structured foundation to support both academic research and industrial practice in the systematic development and implementation of blockchain-based solutions. The practical contribution of this review is to provide a comprehensive operational roadmap to assist interested parties in the successful design, development, and deployment of BCT initiatives.

Keywords
