Evolution or involution? A systematic literature review of organisations' blockchain adoption factors
通过系统文献综述识别出880个组织区块链采纳因素，归为29个主题，并基于TOE和BEnA框架分析其多维性和条件性，发现近期研究趋于内卷而非进化。
To understand the slow adoption of blockchain technology by organisations, we conduct a systematic literature review of adoption factors using a mixed-methods approach. Using thematic analysis, 880 factors are identified and grouped into 29 themes, which offer a comprehensive overview of the literature. Using statistical analysis, the identified factors are dissected into technological (T), organisational (O), and environmental (E) dimensions (the TOE framework). Themes are further classified as barriers (B), enablers (En), and ambiguous (A) to describe a firm's readiness for blockchain adoption (the BEnA framework). We emphasise the multidimensionality of adoption factors across the TOE dimensions and the conditionality of adoption enablers across the BEnA dimensions. Analysis of research trends shows that recent blockchain adoption literature has focused on elaborating upon existing research themes (involution) rather than on developing new themes (evolution). Based on our analyses, we propose future research directions, including scrutinising the interdependence and multidimensionality of blockchain adoption factors, further examining factors with conditional or unclear effects on adoption, and broadening the contextual, temporal, and theoretical aspects of blockchain adoption research. • Identified 880 factors and 29 themes of blockchain adoption by organisations. • Developed multidimensional theoretical frameworks to analyse factors and themes. • Adoption barriers are mostly unambiguous, while enablers are often conditional. • Recent research on blockchain is mainly an involution rather than an evolution.
