From the invention of blockchain (BC) concepts in 2008, with the development of distributed data storage, point-to-point transmission, consensus mechanism, encryption algorithm and so on, the blockchain technology has been paid more and more attentions by all countries. At present, the application of blockchain has been extended from the financial field to the Internet of Things, intelligent manufacturing, supply chain management, and many other fields. The blockchain is creating a new technological innovation and industrial change on a global scale. We indeed need creative thinking, long-term visions, and innovative methodologies to respond to such a change.  The first International Conference on Blockchain (ICBC 2018) was created in 2018 to promote research and application innovations around the world in the field of blockchain. Part of the SCF 2018, ICBC 2018 was successfully held on June 25 - June 30, 2018, Seattle, USA. Part of the SCF 2019, ICBC 2019 was successfully held on June 25 - 30, 2019, San Diego, USA. Part of the SCF 2020, ICBC 2020 and ICBC 2021 was successfully held over the Internet. ICBC 2022 was successfully held on December 10 - 14, 2022, Hawaii, USA. In 2023, we will celebrate our 2023 version of gathering, to strive to advance the largest international professional forum on blockchain services.
