A blockchain based platform can ensure data integrity, reliability, and security by applying distributed processing and encryption technology for transaction records. In the existing knowledge sharing platform, the created knowledge could not be shared or utilized sufficiently due to information asymmetry and centralization. However little research has been done so far on this area. In this study, we will examine case studies and development potentials for blockchain based knowledge sharing platforms based on previous studies of blockchain technology, token economy, knowledge sharing, motivation theory, and social exchange theory. Blockchain based platforms can contribute to the activation of knowledge sharing, by resolving information asymmetry, simplifying unnecessary work procedures through unified knowledge sharing flow and excluded centralization of authority by decentralization, and strengthening access and utilization of the knowledge produced by the platform.

After Satoshi Nakamoto published 'Bitcoin: A peer-to-peer electronic cash system' in 2008, Blockchain has been GPT (General Purpose Technologies) that affect the whole cycle of the $4^{th}$ Industrial Revolution. This study attempted to identify the innovativeness of Blockchain. Because of Blockchain's ambidextrous characteristics, Blockchain has two kinds of innovativeness, technological innovation by physical technology and social innovation by social technology. Thus, this study will be useful to increase understanding and establishing strategy for Blockchain.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the user experience and suggest the necessary improvements, in the blockchain based social platform Steemit. First, I investigated what is the blockchain and the characteristic of social platforms based on blockchain system. The honeycomb model was used to investigate and analyze the Steemit user experience, and the quantitative and qualitative data were analyzed through questionnaires and in-depth interviews. As a result of the research, the voting function, which is core function of the service in use, has high usefulness. Improvements suggestion that the editing tools and the abuse of voting function should be improved. I hope that this study will be used as a basic research material to improve the user experience of blockchain based social platforms.
