Abstract

This study constructed and empirically validated a blockchain-enabled multiloop collaborative model for managing intangible-cultural-heritage information resources. It addressed structural dilemmas in intangible-cultural-heritage digitalization, including ownership ambiguity, centralized storage risks, and insufficient participant incentives. The methodology involved designing a system for on-chain registration and smart contract-driven incentives, which was tested using large-sample operational data from four mainstream Chinese digital platforms. Results indicated a 98.1% success rate for the primary traceability process and confirmed that dynamic incentives significantly boosted node activity; however, high process rollback ratios and manual intervention costs were identified as primary operational constraints. These findings established a theoretical and practical framework for shifting from static archiving to dynamic, trustworthy governance, offering a replicable path for optimizing organizational efficiency and ensuring the sustainable activation of cultural assets in the digital era.
