What makes a blockchain healthcare insurance project succeed in the real world — and what sinks it?
In this compelling mixed-methods study, six researchers from Northeastern University dissect the technical, regulatory, and strategic factors that separate high-performing blockchain insurance ventures from those that
stall. Using market data from CoinGecko and curated public metadata, they identify what truly moves the needle for commercial success.
Key takeaways:
• HIPAA compliance is a top predictor of higher market capitalization
• Insurance partnerships, despite potential, may
hinder early growth due to implementation complexity
• Team size and regulatory alignment correlate strongly with success
• Strategic insight: Investors should focus on clear regulatory strategies; founders should embed compliance early
• Policy angle: Regulators must offer clearer frameworks to
support scalability
With an Adjusted R² of 0.957, the model offers a powerful lens into what works — and what doesn’t — in scaling blockchain in healthcare insurance.
Essential reading for digital health founders, blockchain entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, and policymakers shaping the future of health tech
regulation and
investment.
