Abstract
The Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized the way devices interact and share information, creating a vast network of interconnected devices. Studyproposed a robust blockchain framework tailored for the unique requirements of IoT environments to address these challenges. The proposed blockchain framework aims to enhance data integrity, security, and efficiency in IoT networks by leveraging the decentralized and tamper-resistant nature of blockchain technology. By incorporating smart contracts, the framework enables autonomous and secure execution of predefined rules, ensuring transparent and trustworthy interactions among IoT devices. The use of consensus algorithms specific to IoT requirements enhances the efficiency of data validation and ensures timely and accurate information dissemination. Furthermore, the framework focuses on scalability to accommodate the growing number of devices in IoT networks without compromising performance. Through the integration of consensus mechanisms and optimized data structures, the proposed solution minimizes the computational overhead associated with blockchain operations in resource-constrained IoT devices. By enhancing security, efficiency, and scalability, the study establishes the development of resilient and trustworthy IoT ecosystems, fostering innovation and growth in the rapidly evolving landscape of interconnected devices. The scalability index of the proposed method is 98.12% when compared with existing methods like ripple, DPOS and tendermint.
