“…Some solutions started to emerge that enable legacy systems to connect to a blockchain backend. For example, Modex Blockchain Database [39] was designed to help organizations without much exposure in blockchains to relish the potential benefitso and remove the dangers posed by the loss of sensitive data.…”

This survey presents a comprehensive study of recent advances in blockchain technologies， focusing on how issues that affecting the enterprise adoption were progressively addressed from the original Bitcoin system to Ethereum, to Solana etc. Key issues preventing the wide adoption are scalability and performance, while recent advances in Solana has clearly demonstrated that it is possible to significantly improve on those issues by innovating on data structure, processes and algorithms by consolidating various time-consuming algorithms and security enforcements, and differentiate and balance users and their responsibilities and rights, while maintaining the required security and integrity that blockchain systems inherently offer.

“…Therefore, this study aims to implement and develop a blockchain-based E-transcript/diploma system design in previous research [35]- [38] where the research is still a concept model, as well as the design of the e-transcript/diploma system. The novelty of this study provided a recording of student academic data as well as diploma and certificate documents stored on the blockchain network and IPFS.…”

A diploma is a certificate or official document given by a school or college that is useful for continuing education, applying for jobs, and assessing student intelligence. The main problem with diplomas and other academic documents is that many are forged. This study aims to develop a prototype for recording student academic data using blockchain and blockchain and InterPlanetary file system (IPFS). The research stages were conducted with system conceptualization, data modeling, smart contract development, IPFS integration, data transaction development, user interface/user experience (UI/UX) development, and system testing. A blockchain is a permanent information structure formed by data blocks that are interconnected with transaction data blocks before and after it. The transaction data for each block are encrypted using asymmetric cryptography. IPFS is a peer-to-peer network protocol for storing and sharing data in a distributed file system applying the concept of decentralization to make the manipulation more difficult. The results show that student academic data and documents were successfully stored in a blockchain network using smart contracts and IPFS. Blockchain technology, smart contracts, and IPFS strengthen the value of these documents into documents that are safe, difficult to counterfeit, and easy to trace, such that authentication and integration are better preserved.

“…Mastercard is another organization that has over 100 blockchain patents filed. This company uses technology to increase protection against fraud and to reduce transaction costs [14]. Last, but not least, some authors used blockchain technology to develop the BookChain project-a secure library book for storing and sharing in academic institutions.…”

Blockchain technology contributes to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Education for sustainable development (ESD) is UNESCO’s education sector response to the urgent and dramatic challenges the planet faces. The traditional way of donating money to charitable causes, such as education, has been through centralized methods and organizations that lack transparency, and donors often do not have a clear understanding of how their contributions are being utilized. Blockchain technology, particularly, platforms like Ethereum and Polygon, has the potential to address the issues associated with traditional donation systems. This paper proposes a decentralized web3 application that utilizes blockchain technology to enhance transparency and efficiency in educational donations in the context of sustainable development. The platform leverages decentralized protocols and smart contracts to ensure secure and transparent transactions, enabling donors to track the utilization of their contributions and ensuring their funds reach their intended beneficiaries. This paper discusses the design and implementation of the platform, highlighting its features and potential for transforming the landscape of charitable donations. This software application can be used in education, and a demo plus some scenarios/work cases are presented/analyzed. The main results and contributions open other future research directions for not only authors.
