探索智能合約對當代數字平台商業模式的採用：機遇、挑戰和收益研究分析

Abstract

近年來，人們對將智能合約納入現代數位平台的營運框架的興趣顯著增加。這些平台作為各種線上交易和互動中的重要中介，越來越多地研究與採用智慧合約技術相關的潛在優勢和障礙。由區塊鏈技術驅動的智慧合約提供了一種去中心化和自動化的方法來執行和執行合約協議，從而改變了傳統的業務流程。 （區塊鏈技術）智能合約與數位平台商業模式的整合帶來了一系列機會、挑戰和優勢。掌握這些錯綜複雜的問題對於平台開發人員、利害關係人和研究人員來說至關重要。本文致力於深入研究智能合約在當代數位平台商業模式中的採用，對與此整合相關的機會、挑戰和好處進行徹底的研究。 此外，本文也將研究在以太坊等區塊鏈支援平台上運行的去中心化應用程式（DApp）的開發。 DApp 是一種在區塊鏈網路上運行的分散式開源軟體應用程式。從本質上講，DApp 與傳統的網路或行動應用程式相似。底層的基礎支撐架構是去中心化和智慧合約。這項研究也使我們能夠了解使用者介面層的發展和成長。

In recent years, there has been a notable rise in interest concerning the adoption of smart contracts into the operational frameworks of modern digital platforms. These platforms, acting as vital intermediaries in diverse online transactions and interactions, are increasingly examining the potential advantages and hurdles linked with the adoption of smart contract technology. Smart contracts, driven by blockchain technology, present a decentralized and automated approach to executing and enforcing contractual agreements, thereby transforming conventional business procedures. The integration of (blockchain technology)smart contracts into digital platform business models brings forth a range of opportunities, challenges, and advantages. Grasping these intricacies is crucial for platform developers, stakeholders, and researchers alike. This thesis endeavors to delve into the adoption of smart contracts within contemporary digital platform business models, providing a thorough examination of the opportunities, challenges, and benefits associated with this integration. Also, this thesis will investigate the development of decentralized applications (DApps) that run on the blockchain-enable platforms such as Ethereum. DApp is a type of distributed, open-source software application that runs on a blockchain network. Essentially, DApps exhibit resemblances to traditional web or mobile apps. The underlying fundamental back-up architecture is decentralization and smart contracts. This study enables us to also understand the development and growth at the user-interface layer.
