Abstract: Abstract This study aimed at analyzing the effect of blockchain technology in innovating accountants’ skills as a multimethodology study in the industrial companies listed on the Amman Stock Exchange. For achieving this goal, the researchers adopted the multimethodology approach using mixed methods between quantitative and qualitative research methodologies by conducting interviews with accountants, auditors, and financial managers forming a study sample of 50 individuals. Results show that the highest remarkable indication concerning the phenomenon of analyzing the effect of Blockchain technology in innovating accountants’ skills is (Increasing performance efficiency) as an emerging theme. Then followed by (Blockchain technology will work on innovating accountants’ skills) as the second emerging theme. And then followed by (Enhancing accountants’ skills) as the third emerging theme. And these results reflect the convictions and expectations of the study sample of accountants, auditors, and financial managers that the impact of implementing blockchain technology will innovate accountants’ skills.
