We find that DT significantly inhibits greenwashing. Moreover, mitigates by enhancing green technology innovation (i.e., channel), reducing information asymmetry increasing trade credit resource channel). From perspective investor attention, both retail investors' online opinions institutional site visits strengthen inhibitory effect Furthermore, such more pronounced large firms, industries with high competition, regions strong intellectual property protection. This research provides new insights policy suggestions for governing behavior.
