Summary/Abstract: Considering the growing interest shown in block-chain and the involvement of public and private systems in the development of this technology, this paper aims at a systematic analysis of the literature to identify areas that use block-chain or intend to use it as soon as possible. The review covers 507 articles from economic, business and management from Springer's electronic database. The results show that the first 5 areas of interest for research are cryptocurrencies, supply chain, energy, banking, healthcare. The added value of this paper is a forecast of key industries that will develop and operate using block-chain technology in the next future.
