I. Introduction

One of the most recent technologies to receive substantial study and invention is blockchain, which is one of today's rising technologies. In 2008, Satoshi Nakamoto pushed for the advancement of blockchain technology. There are numerous informational pieces about this technology. Technology today is quite safe and secure. The greatest technology for distributing such information is blockchain, since it provides real-time, shareable, and completely transparent data that is stored on a decentralized network and is only available to users of a permissioned network. Blockchain technology can be utilized to develop decentralized learning environments that promote peer-to-peer communication, student-driven content development, and more individualized learning processes. This may promote a climate that is more collaborative and focused on the needs of the students. The conventional learning environment in education has changed as a result of recent technological advancements. Blockchain is one of the disruptive technologies with high accountability and visibility. Education is one of the businesses that has attracted a lot of attention in recent years due to its seeming stagnation when compared to other technologies.
