Abstract
Blockchain is a technology that collects data in a blockchain and allows transactions securely and transparently. It is used in many fields. Bibliometric publications examining detailed research trends in blockchain and cryptocurrency are still rare, but one bibliometric report did include research on the topic. The present work is filling in the void that eludes the study of research in the blockchain area. In the current work, we have included a wide range of blockchain and cryptocurrency research efforts to date. This study used the Scopus database to extract 2,045 articles from 2014 to 2021. The goal was to examine blockchain and cryptocurrency growth in volume, trend, global distribution, significant journals, pioneering authors, leading nations, and dominant sectors. This study highlights many aspects of worldwide blockchain and cryptocurrency research by researchers from all over the world. This research also studies how consensus decision-making and its processes are used. This study highlights many aspects of global blockchain and cryptocurrency research. This study also examines their use and consensus methods.
