Blockchain Development in Colab: An Ethereum-Based Bicycle Registry System

Abstract

Blockchain is a technology that has taken the business world by storm. The worldwide spending on blockchain solutions is expected to grow from 1.5 billion in 2018 to an estimated 15.9 billion by 2023. According to a recent study by LinkedIn, it is found that Blockchain tops the list of most in-demand hard skills for 2020. Colaboratory, or “Colab” for short, is a product from Google Research, that allows anybody to write and execute arbitrary python code through the browser. This paper will begin with the concept and discussion of Blockchain and Colab followed by developing an Ethereum-based project that creates smart contracts within Colab for bicycle registry that will communicate with a Database system.
