A novel approach to solve a mining work centralization problem in blockchain technologies Available to Purchase

This paper aims to solve a mining work centralization problem using a gamification-based approach.

The authors have developed a simple blockchain application that incorporates a gamification concept into the mining work. Then, they asked some participants in an experiment to use the application for a week and gathered some insights from the responses on questionnaires.

The results show that the gamification-based approach distributed mining work among many participants by increasing their motivation to participate mining work.

The gamification-based approach solves a mining work centralization problem and opens a new direction for future blockchain technologies.
