Abstract
In the context of the rapid development of the national digital economy and platform economy, the risk
of platform companies abusing data and algorithms to monopolize markets has become increasingly prominent.
Traditional antitrust compliance models face challenges such as information asymmetry, difficulty in evidence
collection, and delayed post-event supervision, which make it difficult to address the covert and dynamic nature
of platform monopolistic behaviors. Blockchain technology, with its features of decentralization, immutability,
traceability, and smart contracts, provides new pathways for building a trusted data traceability system and a
multi-party trusted governance ecosystem. This paper, starting from the national antitrust policy and regulatory
needs, explores the practical paths for blockchain-enabled antitrust compliance, such as data on-chain, smart
contract regulation, privacy protection, and industry standard-setting. Through case studies and application
scenarios, the paper demonstrates the technological feasibility and regulatory value. Additionally, the paper
proposes countermeasures to address implementation challenges related to technical costs, legal validity, privacy
protection, and industry coordination. The research suggests that blockchain technology is expected to play a
foundational supporting role in future antitrust compliance, contributing to the establishment of an efficient,
transparent, and sustainable fair competition order.
