Abstract

This study aims to examine how blockchain technology is currently being applied in various fields, as well as the methods and limitations involved in constructing blockchain, and to gauge the potential future of blockchain technology. The success or realization of the technology's applications will depend on how quickly certain technical challenges can be overcome. This paper emphasizes that with the advancement of blockchain technology, when transparency and reliability are improved, it will become a significant force in changing not only the industrial sector but also the economic and political domains. Even if the problem awareness demonstrated by blockchain technology cannot be the most effective solution for solving real-world problems, the framework it presents will provide a significant window for us to understand the problems we face in reality.

본 연구는 블록체인 기술이 현재 각 영역에서 어떻게 적용되고 있는지와 함께 그 블록체인을 구성하는 방법과 한계를 살펴보고, 이어 블록체인 기술이 제시하는 미래의 모습을 가늠해 보는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이 같은 블록체인 기술이 함축하고 있는 지향은 일정 부분 기술적 난제를 얼마나 빨리 극복하느냐에서 그 성공적 적용이나 실현 여부가 결정된다. 이 논문에서는 블록체인 기술의 진보를 기반으로 투명성과 신뢰성이 향상될 때, 산업의 영역뿐만 아닌, 경제나 정치적 영역에서 세상을 바꾸는 주요한 힘으로 작용하게 될 것이라는 점에 주목한다. 설사 블록체인 기술이 보여주는 문제의식이 현실의 문제를 해결하는 가장 효율적인 최선의 길이 될 수 없다고 하더라도, 이것이 제시하는 틀은 우리가 대면한 현실의 문제를 이해하는 주요한 창이 되어줄 것이다.
