A Study of the New Role of Blockchain in the Indian Education System

Abstract

Blockchain is the foundational technology that allows cryptocurrencies like bitcoin to exist. Blockchain technology has been used in numerous domains such as banking, justice, and commerce as part of the fourth industrial revolution since the invention of the steam engine, electricity, and computer technology. People's willingness to adopt technology has been influenced by rapid technological improvement. The traditional education system in developing nations has lately been improved through the implementation of distributed ledger technology. Disruptive technology in education is a key prerequisite for better accountability and exposure. The authors investigated the key factors influencing educational institutions' (knowledge providers) and learners' (knowledge recipients) intentions to use blockchain technology.
