Abstract

In today's digital age, online communities have become an integral part of our lives, fostering collaboration, knowledge sharing, and community engagement. Higher education institutions, in particular, can greatly benefit from dedicated platforms that facilitate academic discussions and provide incentives for active participation. This research paper presents a comprehensive study and implementation of a decentralized application (DApp) leveraging the blockchain technology to address these needs specifically for E-JUST (Egypt-Japan University of Science and Technology) students and academic staff.
