Blockchain, as one of the emerging technologies in recent years, is essentially a decentralized distributed ledger. By leveraging blockchain, it provides a new approach to identity authentication. This paper provides an overview of the applications of identity authentication based on blockchain. Firstly, the background knowledge of blockchain is introduced. Then, the technical aspects of identity authentication based on blockchain are discussed and classified from the perspectives of identity authentication techniques and cryptographic algorithms. Subsequently, the applications of identity authentication based on blockchain technology are introduced and classified in various fields. Finally, a summary of the entire paper is presented.
