However, in the buyer\u2013supplier networks along supply chains, there remain concerns despite the potential benefits of deploying the BCT. The buyer\u2013supplier networks often have several complex factors that make the BCT implementation less compelling. Considering this, the current study aimed at analysing the facets that would convince the buyer\u2013supplier networks to implement the BCT.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Design\/methodology\/approach<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The study has identified the key Strategies for Blockchain Technology Implementation (SBCTI) by using the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP).
