Abstract: Crowdfunding through blockchain technology revolutionizes the traditional funding models by decentralization, transparency, and automation. Blockchain allows the development of secure systems through smart contracts, where conditional fund allocation reduces fraud and operational inefficiencies. The cryptocurrency payments make it possible to be access globally, enabling micro-investments and participation from diverse demographics. These immutable records provide transparency while decentralized governance empowers the stakeholders to have a voice in the project's output. This creates accountability, inclusivity, and innovation with blockchain being the transformative tool for crowdfunding generation and usage. The findings aim to guide entrepreneur, investors, stakeholders and leveraging crowdfunding for sustainable and impactable ventures.

It is based on collective contributions from a wide-ranging pool of people, typically facilitated through online platforms, to fund projects, startups, charitable initiatives, and creative. This research paper is a comprehensive review of the crowdfunding ecosystem in terms of two key areas: fund generation and fund utilization Our platform allows tracking in real-time how the funds collected are being utilized so that it can be ensured that it is utilized properly and misused is not done.
