In this chapter, we examine how three properties of distributed ledger technologies (DLTs)—immutability, transparency, and traceability—enable tokenized information, defined as confirmed and uninterrupted information verifiably linked to a digital or physical asset. We then assess how tokenized information can help mitigate misinformation—false or inaccurate information that spreads regardless of intent—within complex and expansive collaborations. To illustrate, we explore how three blockchain-based organizations in the energy sector use tokenized information to address misinformation challenges. We conclude by considering the implications of blockchain-enabled tokenized information for decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) and key areas of management and organizational research, including coordination, control, trust, organizational boundaries, stakeholder relationships, and community governance.

摘要

In this chapter, we examine how three properties of distributed ledger technologies (DLTs)—immutability, transparency, and traceability—enable tokenized information, defined as confirmed and uninterrupted information verifiably linked to a digital or physical asset. We then assess how tokenized information can help mitigate misinformation—false or inaccurate information that spreads regardless of intent—within complex and expansive collaborations. To illustrate, we explore how three blockchain-based organizations in the energy sector use tokenized information to address misinformation challenges. We conclude by considering the implications of blockchain-enabled tokenized information for decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) and key areas of management and organizational research, including coordination, control, trust, organizational boundaries, stakeholder relationships, and community governance.
