“…BT can entail economically motived access, and it serves as an engagement-facilitating technology platform, especially in supply chain management (Bai & Sarkis, 2020;Di Vaio & Varriale, 2020;Kamble et al, 2020). It also extends the consumer's role to become that of a prosumer-for example, in the energy industry (Nieto- Martin et al, 2019;Trbovich, 2019;Zhu et al, 2020)-whereby resources are accessed and verified by multi-stakeholders (i.e., crowdsourcing). As BT is characterized as a distributed ledger technology, the blockchain-based sharing economy can facilitate peer-to-peer exchange (e.g., Avital, 2018;Chong et al, 2019;Dai & Vasarhelyi, 2017;Thakor, 2020).…”

Since the introduction of Ethereum in 2015, blockchain technology (BT) has been evolving, and BT has been associated with the concept of the sharing economy by business academics. Despite the marketing research on the sharing economy that has been extensively conducted in the last decade, the linkage between BT and ethical marketing in the sharing economy remains unclear. Through a systematic literature review of 163 articles and a co-citation analysis, this study identifies the key elements of blockchain capabilities, blockchain attributes, and the underlying economic theories of blockchain. It also synthesizes and proposes a shift of ethical marketing logic in the blockchain-based sharing economy that delineates the principles of stakeholder capitalism. The article concludes with a list of future research directions that underline three approaches of stakeholder theory (i.e., the descriptive, instrument, and normative approaches). These directions aim to guide marketing scholars concerning how BT enables an institutionally embedded view of ethical marketing activities and practices that enhance collaborative marketing and subsequently innovate value chains and create sustainable business models in the sharing economy, as well as to the metaverse.
