Description
TL;DR: A practical selection framework for matching healthcare IoT use cases with consensus and cryptographic designs instead of declaring one blockchain suitable for everything.
About This Document
Mwaffaq Abu Alhija, Osama Al-Baik, Abdelrahman Hussein, and Hikmat Abdeljaber examine proof of work, proof of stake, zero-knowledge proofs, homomorphic encryption, transaction volume, frequency, privacy requirements, compliance, and constrained hardware. A choice matrix maps those factors to tailored architectures.
Why Bitcoin People May Care
Healthcare sensors expose the trade-offs that cryptocurrency systems can often postpone: sensitive data, limited power, high transaction volume, regulatory duties, and no tolerance for casual leakage. The paper gives Bitcoin readers a structured comparison between decentralization benefits and operational constraints.
