description Achieving the sustainable goals of the United Nations requires improving supply chain sustainability (SSC). Blockchain technology (BCT) has attracted attention on a global level with the ability to transform supply chain management and sustainability efforts. Recognizing this, this study investigates how BCT plays a role in SSC. The current study looks into the importance of BCT in order to move supply networks towards sustainability by performing bibliometric analysis, and network cluster analysis. Through the literature review, the current literature was analyzed and future research directions were concluded. We begin our study by selecting 297 papers on the relevant subjects by applying various filters to the Web of Science (WoS) database. Influential individuals, journals, and organizations in this field were identified using bibliometric analysis. A network analysis was performed to identify influential co-author, and keywords, and for page rank, and cluster analysis. The network analysis was revealed ten distinct study clusters, and ten propositions were suggested from the analysis of these clusters. Additionally, a conceptual framework for the research was proposed, which can advise managers, practitioners, and researcher communities on the key trends and topics in this emerging research domain. Furthermore, to guide research scholars in this field, 33 future research directions were suggested.
