Abstract

Blockchain technology, initially introduced as the underlying technology for Bitcoin, has garnered significant attention for its decentralized advantages. This paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the feasibility of applying blockchain technology to address bottlenecks in supply chain finance. Starting with a brief introduction to blockchain technology, the paper explores its key characteristics, architecture, and consensus algorithms. Subsequently, it delves into the outlook for supply chain finance in China, highlighting the challenges faced by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The feasibility analysis examines the macro-environmental and technical aspects, demonstrating how blockchain’s features, including immutability, decentralization, smart contracts, and transparency, can offer solutions to trust-related issues and reduce operational costs in supply chain finance. This analysis reveals the promising potential of blockchain technology in transforming the supply chain finance landscape.
