摘要：

PurposeAnchored in the Natural Resource-Based View (NRBV) and Dynamic Capabilities theory, this study examines blockchain's role in facilitating firms' transition to a circular economy (CE), aiming to provide a robust framework for understanding the interplay between blockchain, CE and sustainability.Design/methodology/approachThe study uses an interpretivistic approach and semi-structured interviews to explore how blockchain can drive the transition to a CE.FindingsThe study shows blockchain can expedite the shift to a CE through pollution prevention, product stewardship and sustainable development, by leveraging dynamic capabilities (DC). It emphasizes blockchain as a micro foundation of DCs, with these capabilities enabling NRBV strategic capabilities.Originality/valueThis study investigates the intersection of blockchain and CE, offering empirical validation for a robust conceptual framework and revealing the societal impact of the CE transition.
