Abstract

In the difficult times of history, human beings sought a solution to the crisis by using the existing technological facilities outside of the structure used until that day or by further developing the technology. The COVID-19 outbreak, which affected the whole world in 2020, also increased the diversity and use of blockchain applications. The first coronavirus case in China and then declaration of COVID-19 by the World Health Organization as a pandemic caused countries to be extremely unprepared for this epidemic. The fact that the pandemic is felt in almost every area of daily life has forced individuals to digitalize their daily work and habits. In this study, the existing and innovative blockchain applications developed against the epidemic during the pandemic process will be discussed, and possible future opportunities will be mentioned.
