According to the results, the ability of blockchains distributed ledger to store data concerning ESG and ensure transparency is resistant to changes. However, problems like compatibility and scalability still have not disappeared and that is why tactical solutions remain relevant. From this study, it can be inferred that there is a potential of blockchain to greatly enhance stakeholders confidence through transparent and exemplary ESG process, which is then likely to enhance organizations ethical behaviour.
