According to the authors, their focus is on blockchain, the distributed ledger technology, because it promotes consensus as a record-keeping platform. They emphasize on the fact that blockchain is a transparent and permanent medium as ledgers, containing the records, can’t be altered. Like education, blockchain is intended to transfer not just the content, but also the underlying value. Hence, the research team behind the study is more than confident in the growing share of blockchain-based solutions, such as OS.University, within the edtech space.
