Abstract

Blockchain has been enforced in many sectors, and its implementation has drastically improved those sectors. Diamond trade has been greatly helped by the employment of blockchain to digitally track the diamonds being well-mined and sold-out within the market. The potential of the blockchain is being tested by varied government agencies for distribution of the various services. Through this paper, we’ve explored the entities concerned within the blockchain network enforced in an academic institute. This paper focuses the employment of the blockchain account for each student maintaining the records of the scholare that helps to spot the talents of the scholars by their prospective employers.
