Abstract:

Blockchain Technology and Its Applications Blockchain technology — although originally used as a platform for cryptocurrency — first instance being the bitcoin — has brought together more than 40 years of computer science research in cryptography,, trusted computing, distributed computing, and recent developments of web enabled technologies. This has led to the evolution of the technology from Blockchain 1.0, through Blockchain 2.0 and now to Blockchain 3.0. However, Blockchain technology — due to the attention of the media — has often created many myths around the applicability of the technology as a panacea for all kinds of computing and automation problems. In this talk, we will talk about the basic principles of the technology, and how we use this technology in solving various E-Governance problems in the context of the National Blockchain Project at IIT Kanpur. We will outline its application in Land Record Registry automation, secure Health Record Sharing, and Self-Sovereign Digital Identity.
