Secure Blockchain Transaction: A Literature Survey

Abstract

Abstract In today’s era of digital transformation, online transactions have become vital to financial systems, e-commerce, and decentralized applications. However, increasing dependence on digital payment infrastructures has also raised major security concerns such as hacking, identity theft, and unauthorized access. To address these challenges, the proposed project “Blockchain Secure Transaction” presents a decentralized framework that ensures transparency, integrity, and confidentiality in digital transactions. The system uses blockchain technology to record and validate each transaction in a distributed ledger, eliminating centralized control and making data immutable and tamper-proof. The workflow begins with user registration, where users provide details and set a picture password for secure recognition. During login, the system verifies credentials and performs biometric authentication to confirm user identity. Unregistered users are redirected to the registration page, maintaining process integrity. Once authenticated, users access the dashboard to initiate secure transactions. To preserve privacy, Zero-Knowledge Proof (ZKP) is used, allowing users to prove transaction authenticity without revealing sensitive information. Transactions then pass through smart contract verification, which ensures compliance with predefined conditions. Successful verifications result in completed transactions, while suspicious or invalid ones are blocked or frozen automatically. All user data and transaction logs are securely stored in Firebase, with backend processing handled in Java and the frontend designed using React (app.jsx). By combining blockchain’s immutability, smart contract automation, ZKP privacy proofs, and biometric authentication, the Blockchain Secure Transaction System offers a multi-layered, tamper-resistant, and transparent solution for secure online payments — enhancing trust and reliability in the digital economy.
