What business of mine is the future? No doubt Seldon has foreseen it and prepared against it. There will be other crises in the time to come when money power has become as dead a force as religion is now. Let my successors solve those new problems, as I have solved the one of today. - Foundation (Isaac Asimov)

Notara

Efficient Blockchain Asset Notarization Service

Traditional asset notarization methods are inefficient, expensive, vulnerable to fraud, and rely on the trust of a third party, such as a notary. In contrast, blockchain-based smart contracts enable the creation of decentralized notarization services, ensuring transparency and security without intermediaries. However, existing blockchain-based solutions often lack the flexibility for specific deployment for individual entities our groups. This work presents a demonstration for a unique customer-deployable notarization service, based on blockchain smart contracts. Our solution is designed to be a cost-efficient notarization service that can be quickly integrated into decentralized applications requiring notarization functionalities.

This project was done during my internship at the French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission (CEA).

This project was a great opportunity to gather experience in the following:

  • Decentralized application development.
  • Smart contract programming in Solidity.
  • Web application design.
