  Blockchain technology has the potential to revolutionize the architecture of
cyberspace by transforming the way information is stored, circulated, and
exchanged in cyberspace through decentralization, transparency, and
de-identification. This means that ordinary participants can simultaneously
become traders, miners, retailers, and customers, thus breaking down barriers,
reducing the information gap between participants in the community, and
contributing to the futuristic metaverse with an open, progressive, and equal
ideology. The impact of this information transformation empowered by blockchain
extends to our understanding of methodology, legal governance in cyberspace,
and financial and technological development. This study asks: what are the
implications of the blockchain-driven information revolution for society and
social sciences? In order to answer this main question, the paper focuses on
four key perspectives: methodological, legal, financial, and technical. Through
the analysis of these four perspectives, the paper provides a comprehensive
understanding of the impact of blockchain on society, the social sciences, and
technology, making a contribution to current scholarship. It finds that
blockchain is not only an innovative cognition method, but also a community
representative, serving as a source of trust, a governance watchdog, an
enforcer of cyber laws, and an incubator for future technologies. Despite some
challenges in integrating blockchain with existing social structures, this
paper concludes that blockchain has the potential to play a significant role in
shaping the future.
