Public interest in cryptocurrencies and NFTs has increased since the Covid-19 pandemic, especially for artists and art lovers. The function of NFTs is to apply the usability of credits or royalties to a work. Hic et Nunc is an alternative marketplace that is known to be environmentally friendly compared to other Ethereum-based marketplaces that are known for high gas fees and ecological issues. Unfortunately, in the midst of its popularity, Hic Et Nunc was discontinued without any warning and its website is no longer accessible. This situation created sites that mirrored Hic Et Nunc such as objkt.com or henext.xyz. This research discusses the factors that make art collectors have loyalty to Hic Et Nunc by staying and not switching to the dominant market location. The research method was based on a descriptive qualitative approach with in-depth interviews with 3 informants, all of whom are active art collectors and loyal to the Hic Et Nunc marketplace. Based on consumer behaviour theory and market theory, the results stated that collectors are influenced by their work, social and cultural environment. Besides, the factors for choosing Hic et Nunc as a marketplace include being an alternative platform to the dominance of Ethereum, a digital investment medium and recognition by the social environment.Keywords: NFTs, Hic et Nunc, Collectors, Marketplaces

Technological developments have resulted in a trend of cryptocurrencies that use a technology called blockchain to create and record all transactions made into a digital ledger. Along with the emergence of the trend of cryptocurrencies, this development has also resulted in crimes that hit the digital world, such as data leakage and cyber espionage. This threat can be prevented by applying blockchain technology to the database that has been used. Therefore, we need a system that can facilitate the use of blockchain technology and can process data from an existing relational database into a blockchain-based database. The system developed in this study was built with the FastAPI framework that uses the Python programming language and the React framework that uses the Javascript programming language. This system was tested using Katalon and Wireshark software to perform throughput testing and man-in-the-middle attacks. Evaluation of this system is assessed based on the average throughput time and also the results of Wireshark packet capture. The system designed in this research is expected to help overcome interoperability problems when using blockchain and improve relational database integrity. The results of the test show that the system is safe from man-in-the-middle attacks while sending data through API and has a faster throughput time than BigchainDB system by 4.151 seconds.

<p class="Abstract"><span lang="IN">Massive
 transformation and multifaceted nature of innovation due to increasing
 interconnectivity in globalisation era–particularly through the discourse of
 the Internet of Things (IoT)– have made technology and its instruments nearly
 inevitable in human life, not least in the economic sector. Cryptocurrency as
 one of the products of this activity is getting a great deal of public
 attention. Over time, this currency is gradually favoured by many people around
 the world, especially with the demands for ease of business and transactions in
 the era of digitalisation. The shift allows individuals with access and
 associated resources to store personal assets that cannot be censored/detected
 by central and banking authorities, carry out anonymous financial transactions,
 make high-speed transfers, invest in start-ups, mine new cryptocurrency, and
 even buy land or property in the virtual world/metaverse. All these advantages
 and conveniences encourage individuals, especially businesspersons and
 investors to switch to cryptocurrencies. However, its volatility also incites
 hesitation to adopt it as a medium of exchange/trading transactions. Due to the
 functionality, legality, and disputable implications of its use, this issue
 evokes our interest to study it as a subject matter, especially through the
 lens of axiology. This study employs a qualitative method to generate
 descriptive results. Cryptocurrency serves as a form of digital asset that
 functions as a virtual medium of exchange run in a blockchain system and is
 secured using an automated cipher called cryptography. From an axiological
 point of view, the writer considers at least 5 (five) values constituting
 priority scales in crypto transactions: trust, agreement, utility, pride, and
 speculation. Finally, the writer concludes that cryptocurrency utilisation
 cannot be separated from the axiological perspective of science, considering
 the gap between personal and social values is pertinent.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Blockchain is an up-and-coming technology designed to ease the process of verifying legitimate products without the need of a centralized system. An example of a well-known technology using Blockchain is Bitcoin and Ethereum cryptocurrency. Blockchain technology will ensure that data residing within each block cannot be tampered with by anyone other than the owner. This paper uses Blockchain technology to develop a system where customers can validate a product legitimacy without the need of a corresponding merchant. This system will be able to be used by manufacturers and companies to ensure that their products will be harder to counterfeit, therefore they will gain more trust from customers. The Ethereum blockchain is used to build the proposed model that is capable of tracing every item's creation and transactions, ensuring the credibility of an item's genuineness. Our simulation results in an effective model and a cost analysis that shows that the model uses an average gas amount of 715,046.3 gwei.

Blockchain to everyone seems to comprehend, a rapidly growing business, and it is safe to assume that it has already had an effect on related sectors like banking and cryptocurrency. The success of this endeavor will go a long way toward guaranteeing blockchain technology's widespread adoption in the farming/agricultural sector. However, it is our responsibility to educate and train farmers in this regard, since this is likely to be one of the developing team's most time-consuming challenges.Once our work is up and running, clients will be able to purchase things at fair prices, and we will be able to quickly cut out the middleman who is making a profit just by delivering or selling the goods.The lending institution that this initiative is based on will allow farmers to borrow money at a reduced interest rate. All analyses are, thus, based on the most recent data and evidence at this time. In order to have a true image of the advantages of blockchain technology in agriculture/farming company, more study has to be done on large-scale data processing and established blockchain infrastructure.This article aims to work on a website that will allow farmers to enter information about their operations and produce, while also allowing retailers to get the goods they need for their stores or homes at competitive prices. By eliminating the need for middlemen, the use of this technology will cut out the people who are just interested in making money off of the sale of goods.

Smart contracts and Blockchain are necessary for transactions in supply chain management. A smart contract is an agreement in the form of a cryptographic code digitally signed by the actors. This technology holds the data transaction transparently and securely between the actors. The actors may benefit without intermediaries involved in the transaction. Supply chain management will be easily tracked by decentralized data sharing. Supply chain management involves transactions in agricultural sectors such as farmers, Village Cooperatives units, distributors, and consumers. The Cooperative is a party that buys goods from farmers and sells them to consumers. A smart contract is a digital signature that can access the system in transactions. The system records log activities that show the origin of transactions. All actors can see the transaction of agricultural products stored in the blockchain ledger in the Blockchain. This paper discusses blockchain-based smart contracts scenario for supply chain management that is simulated and implemented in the Serious Game. The Game is developed using Unity 3D Development Platform, programming language contract using Solidity, Moralis as Web3 Development Platform and dApp as backend blockchain, Network Environment Polygon Ethereum, and Database that is Redis Enterprise, MongoDB Compass, and Mumbai Testnet.

Blockchain is a chain of blocks that are connected together and are continuously growing by storing transactions on the blocks. This platform uses a decentralized approach that allows the information to be distributed and that each piece of distributed information or commonly known as data have shared ownership. Blockchains holds batches of transactions that are hashed thus providing them security and they are managed by peer-to-peer networks. Blockchain, an information administration method, has the potential to encourage responsibility and openness. In a blockchain, each user of the computer network can access the same copy of the transaction ledger. The blockchain technology has the potential to handle various security attacks as it can eliminate the need of the centralized authority to perform various operations. In the blockchain technology, a number of users participate in transaction verification and validation.
