Abstract

        In recent years, counterfeit goods have grown to be a significant issue for the product manufacturing sector. They affect the companies' sales, profit margins, and brand. Block chain technology is used to distinguish between authentic and fake goods. It is a distributed, decentralized digital ledger that keeps track of transactions by storing blocks of data across several databases linked together by chains. It is secure, therefore no block can be changed or breached. Block chain technology allows users and customers to verify a product's safety without depending on outside parties. Quick Response (QR) codes, which capitalize on new developments in mobile and wireless technology, provide a potent means of countering the practice of product counterfeiting in this project. It is possible to detect counterfeit goods with a QR code scanner that connects a product's QR code to a block chain.
