The logical essence of this research is the actor-network theory and the practical strategy of the research is futures research. The required data were collected and analyzed based on grounded theory (GT). Objective sampling was employed to select 36 experts as the sample and until theoretical saturation, continued. Then, the scenario-building process continued until reaching the ideal scenario based on the global business network matrix method. After extracting all types of organization scenarios (after implementing Blockchain technology) by scriptwriting, in the ideal scenario this fact was determined that the organization can implement this technology in relation to other parts related to the services of the organization in best ways and use its benefits. with the help of network activists and acceptable Blockchain establishment, all organizations which have the communal approaches can reach the necessary information to facilitate their work approaches in minimum time and maximum fastness.
