Abstract

This systematic review is a trailblazer for the blockchain-based sharing economy concept, mainly in hospitality and tourism. It highlights the potential integration of blockchain across sharing economy sectors (e.g., accommodation, transportation, and business services). Following the PRISMA protocol, 43 publications from 12 scholarly databases were analysed. It identifies different types of implementations, including decentralised apps and specific functionalities that utilise blockchain. Key issues are discussed, including contradictory aspects (transparency vs privacy, centralisation within decentralisation, and users' euphoria vs technical barriers) and advantages (increased security, automated sharing mechanisms, and user participation). The review offers practical implementation paths for blockchain-based sharing economy systems in hospitality and tourism, emphasising the importance of context, scope limitation, focusing on increasing advantages, and managing technological trade-offs. It also suggests critical future research topics and action agendas for hospitality and tourism stakeholders.

释放基于区块链的共享经济在酒店和旅游业中的潜力：系统回顾

本系统综述是基于区块链的共享经济概念的先驱，主要应用于酒店和旅游业。它强调了区块链在共享经济领域（如住宿、交通和商业服务）的潜在整合。按照 PRISMA 协议，对来自 12 个学术数据库的 43 篇出版物进行了分析。报告确定了不同类型的实施方案，包括去中心化应用程序和利用区块链的特定功能。对关键问题进行了讨论，包括相互矛盾的方面（透明度与隐私、去中心化中的中心化、用户的兴奋与技术障碍）和优势（更高的安全性、自动共享机制和用户参与）。综述为酒店和旅游业基于区块链的共享经济系统提供了切实可行的实施路径，强调了背景、范围限制、注重增加优势和管理技术权衡的重要性。它还为酒店业和旅游业的利益相关者提出了重要的未来研究课题和行动议程。
