The Role of Blockchain on B2C and C2C Markets

The article discusses the potential impact of blockchain technology on B2C and C2C markets in the eCommerce industry. It highlights that while previous focus has been on B2B payments, there is now a significant shift towards blockchain's influence in B2C and C2C markets. The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the shift towards online shopping, leading to increased growth and profits for platforms like Amazon and OLX. However, centralized systems and third-party involvement pose challenges to these platforms, including data security risks and lack of transparency. Blockchain technology offers solutions to these challenges, such as establishing a decentralized peer-to-peer network, traceability of transactions, and the use of smart contracts. Additionally, the adoption of cryptocurrencies as payment methods in B2C and C2C transactions is increasing due to their efficiency and lower costs. Overall, businesses that incorporate blockchain technology have advantages in terms of transparency, security, and cross-border transactions, making blockchain the future of B2C and C2C payments.
