Abstract - The present processes frequently experience inefficiencies and fraud susceptibility in a society where educational credentials are crucial. This study explores the idea of using blockchain as a decentralized,secure database for storing and verifying academic credentials. The study addresses how blockchain technology can provide a tamper-proof, transparent, and effective means for certifying educational credentials by using its immutability and consensus mechanisms. The study explores how blockchain implementation may affect students, educational institutions, and employers, stressing the potential for streamlined verification procedures, cost savings, and improved overall academic record integrity. This article clarifies the tremendous prospects of blockchain in altering the certificate authentication environment through a thorough examination. This problem is solved using blockchain technology. Changes made to blockchain data must be approved unanimously by all parties responsible for maintaining the records. This makes the system encrypted and non-transparent, improving data integrity.
Keywords— Blockchain, Certificate validation, Fake certificates, Metamask.
