Abstract
This paper presents the development of a web application, which aims to provide a platform for white paper authors to upload and have their documents reviewed by industry experts and scholars. The web app will utilize Ethereum block chain technology to provide security and authenticity to the uploaded white papers, which will be converted into non-fungible tokens to ensure their uniqueness. The authors will have the ability to self-upload their white papers onto a secured IPFS (Inter Planetary File System) database and use ERC721 (Ethereum Request for Comments) protocols to mint them as non-fungible tokens. In addition, the web app will allow white paper authors to receive crowdfunded support from users holding ETH in their web3 wallets. With our unique authentication system utilizing decentralized techniques, the Paper Publication Portal ensures that only verified authors can publish their work, enhancing both the security and credibility of the platform.
