Blockchain technology must be used in the education sector despite its challenges. Education is one of the sectors where blockchain-based solutions are still in use. Many academics possess extensive knowledge of the societal benefits blockchain technology might bring. The vast potential of blockchain can only be realised if education expands its knowledge of the technology. The primary goal of this research is to identify current problems related to educational institutions and identify blockchain features that could assist in addressing them. This research article will provide an overview of existing activities and address several perspectives on how blockchain can revolutionize the education sector. In prolongation, this article investigates the categories of blockchain technology applications, especially in the field of education. An in-depth discussion on the benefits and impact that blockchain brings to education is explored. Further, deliberate the abundant challenges of adopting blockchain in education.
