Blockchain technology, since its introduction, has been expected to be implemented in many areas. Cryptocurrency is one unique example that established a functioning application. On the other hand, blockchain technology is not immune to various challenges related to the nature of itself, privacy management, and antitrust laws, among others. This study lays out the nature of blockchain and applications in the maritime industry, while highlighting the bottlenecks. Potential resolutions and anticipated developments are proposed. To do this, we adopt a systematic approach and present an overview of blockchain in maritime literature. In addition, the fundamental problems with blockchain are investigated, beginning from their essentials to the pain points that are claimed to need improvement. For establishing a legitimate and practically meaningful blockchain platform, stakeholders need to achieve pluralism (consensus validation), privacy, and security of the system.


The time it takes from the development of new technology to the introduction of operational systems in naval defence is generally approximately two decades; thus most of what will be applied in the 1990s is already in development. Some of the key areas of defence interests that are directly affected by advances in maritime technology are undersea detection (by sonar), atmospheric detection of flying objects, and ocean forecasting to the fleet. Developments in remote sensing, oceanic and atmospheric phenomena and very large computers and data banks are important in both deployment and operational strategies as well as the development of new systems. Some of the major oceanographic and geophysical advances in this century were made because of the availability of defence technology. Examples are expendable temperature probes, sonobuoys for seismic refraction, and fathometry. It is interesting to examine what is being developed for defence purposes that may affect ocean research.
