Blockchain has been utilized across a wide range of industries, such as IoT, social media, robotics, government, supply chain, and healthcare. As the usage of blockchain is emerged in social media studies, the problem of storing and analyzing streaming social media data in a safe, anonymous, and reliable manner is emerged. Within the scope of this problem, in this study, the adaptation of the streaming social media dataset to the blockchain systems and analysis of this data are carried out. A new algorithm of Dense Region Detection Algorithm (DRDA) is proposed to detect dense social regions of urban areas. Streaming data are collected from New York City, and the proposed DRDA is performed by miners to determine the dense regions of New York. As a result, dense regions with intensive tweet sharing in New York are detected and discussed. © 2022 IEEE.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessblockchaindense region analysissocial mediastreaming data analysisConference Object10.1109/IISEC56263.2022.99983092-s2.0-85146370620N/A
