In this paper, we cut through the hype and shed light on the expectations of industry professionals towards the benefits and challenges of Blockchain. Also, we categorize current Blockchain applications that are expected to provide tangible benefits for supply chain and logistics processes. To explore such potentials, we argue that companies should gain own first-hand experiences through small-scale experiments.en2196-7032Information technology20215-6263271De Gruyterhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/Blockchainapplicationlogisticssupply chainsurveyapplied computingoperations researchindustries and manufacturingsupply chain managementInformatikWirtschaftHandel, Kommunikation, VerkehrMapping the sea of opportunities : Blockchain in supply chain and logisticsJournal Article10.15480/882.284910.1515/itit-2017-003110.15480/882.2849Journal Article
