This study presents a systematic literature review using the PRISMA framework to look at the DL T governance models. Six DL T governance models were identified: network, decentralized autonomous organisations, organisational, corporate, managerial, and operational. These models were then assessed based on how each is influenced by the four DLT governance dimensions, economical, political, technological, and social. Seven components of DL T governance were also considered during the evaluation such as stakeholders, participation, accountability, transparency, flexibility, enforcement, and decision-making. The results show that each governance model has a different level of influence from each dimension and a different level of consideration from key DL T governance components. The selection of which model to use depends on the requirements of each organisation and the users of the DL T system. Promoted results can assist organisations and researchers in selecting the best model that fits their requirements and prioritisation of dimensions and each component.AbstractenDistributed ledger technologyDLTDLT Governance dimensionsDLT Governance componentsConference PresentationN/A
