Abstract

This paper delves into the sustainable development of financing paths for small and medium - sized enterprises (SMEs) in the context of blockchain - finance empowerment. By comprehensively analyzing the current financing landscape and challenges faced by SMEs, elaborating on the distinctive features and advantages of blockchain technology in the financial domain, exploring innovative financing models enabled by blockchain for SMEs, and proposing strategies to ensure the long - term viability of these paths, this research aims to offer novel insights. The study reveals that blockchain technology can effectively address long - standing issues such as information asymmetry and complex credit assessment in SME financing, presenting fresh perspectives and approaches. Additionally, through measures including regulatory system enhancement, technological innovation promotion, and talent cultivation, the sustainable development of blockchain - finance - empowered SME financing paths can be significantly advanced.
