“…However, distant medical professionals may be unable to continuously access health data obtained during telemedicine treatment episodes, resulting in an incomplete medical history and putting the overall quality of care at risk. As a result, in this situation, the blockchain technology [71][72][73][74] can bridge the communication gap between different providers by eliminating the need for third-party authorities and empowering engaged participants to interact directly. At this level, it is worth noting that the ability to store and handle large volumes of patient health data, ensure privacy and reduce operational costs are all requirements for implementing blockchain in healthcare [75][76][77].…”

Blockchain is a modern technology that has revolutionized the way society interacts and trades. It could be defined as a chain of blocks that stores information with digital signatures in a distributed and decentralized network. This technique was first adopted for the creation of digital cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. However, research and industrial studies have recently focused on the opportunities that blockchain provides in various other application domains to take advantage of the main features of this technology, such as: decentralization, persistency, anonymity, and auditability. This paper reviews the use of blockchain in several interesting fields, namely: finance, healthcare, information systems, wireless networks, Internet of Things, smart grids, governmental services, and military/defense. In addition, our paper identifies the challenges to overcome, to guarantee better use of this technology.
