š Blockchain Certificate Verification System | Ethereum + Solidity + React | Full Project Explanation In this video, I built a Blockchain Based Certificate Verification System from scratch using Ethereum blockchain. This project solves a real world problem ā fake certificates. Using blockchain technology, certificates are stored as tamper-proof SHA-256 hashes on a smart contract that nobody can edit or delete. Ever. š ļø Tech Stack Used: Solidity ā Smart Contract Hardhat ā Local Ethereum Blockchain ethers.js ā Blockchain Connection React.js ā Frontend Website MetaMask ā Crypto Wallet š What you will learn: What is blockchain and why it's useful for certificates How to write a Solidity smart contract How to deploy a contract using Hardhat How to connect MetaMask to a local blockchain How to verify certificates by ID and by file upload How SHA-256 hashing works for document verification ā±ļø Timestamps: 0:00 ā Introduction and problem statement 2:00 ā Technical implementation and code walkthrough 8:00 ā Running the project and seeing live output 14:00 ā MetaMask connection and admin features 18:00 ā Outro š» How to run this project: Install Node.js and VS Code Run npm install Run npx hardhat node Run npm run deploy:local Run cd frontend && npm install && npm start Open http://localhost:3000 š How it works: University uploads certificate ā app calculates SHA-256 hash ā hash stored permanently on Ethereum blockchain Employer uploads same certificate ā app calculates same hash ā checks blockchain ā instantly verified ā If certificate is fake ā hash won't match ā NOT FOUND ā š This project is perfect for: College final year projects Blockchain beginners Web3 developers learning Solidity Anyone interested in document verification systems ā ļø Note: This project runs on a local Hardhat blockchain for demonstration purposes. No real ETH is used. All certificates and transactions are completely fake and only exist on your local computer.
