Abstract

Using a sample of 48 policies on the blockchain industry issued by central and local governments. To analyze the content of these documents, the researchers employed Nvivo12 software for coding through content analysis. Utilizing a comprehensive three-dimensional analysis framework encompassing supply, demand, and environment, this paper conducts a quantitative analysis of the Chinese blockchain industrial policy text. It was found that: (1) National-level policies not only focus on the implementation of regulatory measures but also prioritize research on blockchain technology policies. (2) There is geographical variability observed in the policies across the eastern, central, and western regions of the country. The eastern and central regions exhibit a greater emphasis on the utilization of environmental policy tools. Science and technology innovation centers like Beijing, Shanghai, and the Greater Bay Area provide extensive support for the growth of blockchain enterprises, particularly in the areas of finance, taxation, and regulation. On the other hand, the western regions tend to prioritize demand-based policies. For instance, the Chengdu-Chongqing Economic Circle emphasizes the importance of application scenario implementation and fostering cooperation at various levels. Finally, some suggestions are made for the construction and improvement of the key core technology innovation policy system in China, to provide theoretical support and decision-making reference for the collaborative development of China's key core technologies and regional industries.
