Abstract

The implementation of Blockchain Technology (BT) within Internet of Things (IoT) systems has numerous benefits, whereas if it is not correctly adapted to the specific use case, it can present some disadvantages. In the design of IoT Blockchain-based platforms, to identify where the use of BT may present a drawback and search the alternatives that overcome that flaw it is needed to perform a systematic analysis of the platform needs. In order to being capable of face the design of IoT Blockchain-based systems at a later stage, in this work it is performed an analysis of the key characteristics that BT has to take into account when working with it and a literature review of different Blockchain-based IoT platforms.
