“…The significance of the research presented in this paper is twofold. First, as shown in the reported studies about the sustainability issues of adopting blockchains for supply chains reviewed in this paper and by other researchers (e.g., [16,20]), many previous studies (e.g., [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30]) focused on how blockchain technology can be applied to improve environmental, economic, and social sustainability for supply chain sustainability, but little research explored technical sustainability. Technical sustainability refers to the longterm technical administration, maintenance, development, and support of an innovative technology in order for its continuation, advancement (e.g., increased efficiency [31]) and resilience (e.g., resilient supply chains [32]).…”
