Abstract
If blockchain technologies are emerging as important game changers in the supply chain, this is largely attributed to their high operational and strategic business value. While this high potential is acknowledged by the practitioner’s literature, very few empirical studies have been conducted on the factors explaining the adoption, use and continuance of blockchain-enabled supply chain applications. To fill this knowledge gap, this study extended the expectation-confirmation model (ECM) by integrating the supply chain stakeholders trust to analyze to the continuance intention in blockchain-enabled supply chain applications. The proposed model was tested and supported by the data collected among 344 supply chain professionals in India. The paper ends up with the formulation of important implications for practice and research.
