A Secure NFT-Based System for Eliminating Counterfeit Certificates

In recent times, the proliferation of fake certificates has become a growing concern, undermining the credibility of educational and professional qualifications. This paper presents a system based on blockchain designed to avoid the issuance and circulation of counterfeit certificates using Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs). Using the unchangeable and see-through nature of blockchain technology, the proposed system ensures secure verification and authentication of certificates. By employing NFTs, each certificate is tokenized, making it unique, indivisible, and tamper-resistant. The system provides a robust and trustworthy platform for institutions, employers, and individuals to eradicate the menace of fake certificates, promoting trust and integrity in the certification ecosystem.
