Blockchain is the cryptographic principle behind bitcoin (among others).

Blockchain is used in financial transaction systems. SAS doesn't do these, but of course it could be used to analyse the data coming out of such systems.

The question should therefore not be "does SAS do blockchain" (once again, a much too general question), but "can the blockchain system in question deliver data in a format readable by SAS", and should be put to those running the blockchain system.

@SASKiwi: That's right, the blockchain used in the Financial Transaction System(Bitcoin, Dash...) , it can also be also used in Health care ( Traceability of medicines ......) and transport ... It is clear that's sas can be used to analyse DATA in the second time . But , in the first time, I am very interested by the transaction system, so AS R software is connected with SAS, what does R propose ?

Ask in an R forum.

Check out this video from SAS Global Forum:

Healthcare: Combining Blockchain and Analytics to enable greater access to care

Blockchain is a topic of interest at SAS, an emerging technology that SAS is following closely -- for the variety of applications you indicated. For those interested in a basic overview of blockchain, see this video from SAS CTO Oliver Schabenberger:

@ChrisHemedinger: That’s right; it’s a very interesting subject about blockchain and Healthcare. It is a great topic about the improving clinical care for patients (enhancing advancement of clinical care, extending the access of clinical care, insuring the security of clinical care) So, please, I have two questions to ask  1- Traceability of drugs, is it a topic of interest? Traceability of drugs from the pharmaceutics laboratories to the patient, in order to combat counterfeiting. I am intrested by the subject.  2 - In Sas forum, do you have some functionalities can allow the users to subtitle videos and generating a text. Thank you again,
