Abstract

This paper investigates the impact of blockchain technology and smart contracts on digital entrepreneurial finance and venture funding. Through a systematic review of literature from 2015 to 2023, the study highlights how smart contracts automate contract execution, reduce administrative costs, and enhance transparency and security in financial transactions. The decentralized nature of blockchain facilitates peer-to-peer funding and risk mitigation, disrupting traditional financing models. Despite these advantages, challenges such as scalability, energy consumption, and regulatory compliance persist. The paper concludes with recommendations for future research and policy frameworks to harness smart contracts? full potential in entrepreneurial finance.
