Application to Detect Fake Social Media Profile & Verification Using Block Chain Technology

Abstract

This paper proposes a novel social media platform that leverages blockchain technology to address the rising concerns of fake profiles and privacy violations. Our system prioritizes robust identity verification through a decentralized approach and immutable user data storage on a blockchain ledger. By eliminating centralized control and single points of failure, the platform enhances trust and security in online interactions. Additionally, we integrate government-issued ID verification (e.g., Aadhaar card) through smart contracts to add an extra layer of trust and strengthen user profiles. This paper details the design, implementation, and functionalities of the proposed system, aiming to showcase its effectiveness in revolutionizing online identity verification within social media applications
