Special Issue Introduction
As the blockchain ecosystem continues to expand, so do the challenges and innovations in ensuring the integrity and resilience of these decentralized systems. The current state of blockchain security reflects a dynamic interplay among advancements in cryptographic techniques, the emergence of new threat vectors, and the ongoing quest for robust solutions. This Special Issue delves into the multifaceted dimensions of blockchain security, aiming to provide a comprehensive analysis of the existing landscape. From the vulnerabilities inherent in smart contracts to the intricacies of consensus algorithms, our goal is to unravel the complexities and shed light on potential pitfalls. This Special Issue is imperative, recognizing that as blockchain technology becomes more ubiquitous, understanding, addressing, and advancing its security measures is not just a necessity but a collective responsibility.
Our exploration will navigate the challenges blockchain networks face, exploring topics such as privacy concerns, scalability issues, and the ever-present specter of cyber threats. At the same time, we will spotlight innovative solutions, protocols, and strategies that push the boundaries of what is feasible in blockchain security.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
● Consensus Algorithms Security;
● Vulnerabilities in Smart Contracts and Prevention;
● Security for Decentralized Applications (DApps);
● Privacy Protection in the Blockchain Ecosystem;
● Potential Threat of Quantum Computing with Blockchain;
● Attacks and Defense Mechanisms in Blockchain Networks.
