Federated Blockchain—Trends and Challenges

FBTC-2025 is an upcoming edited volume titled "Federated Blockchain: Trends and Challenges", which aims to bring together pioneering research, practical case studies, and interdisciplinary innovations at the intersection of federated learning and blockchain technology. The book will be published by Bentham Science, a globally recognized academic publisher.

As organizations move toward secure, collaborative, and privacy-preserving data systems, federated blockchain is emerging as a game-changing paradigm. This book invites contributions that explore the architecture, applications, challenges, and future research directions of federated blockchain technologies across domains such as AI, Industry 5.0, digital twins, and privacy-centric data ecosystems.

The proposed book seeks to address both foundational theories and advanced implementations, making it a valuable resource for academics, researchers, practitioners, and policymakers involved in distributed systems, cybersecurity, and intelligent infrastructure.

We invite original and unpublished chapter proposals for Federated Blockchain—Trends and Challenges, to be submitted through our Microsoft CMT portal.
