Beyond Transcripts
The main benefit of blockchain-based digital records is that they are tamper-proof and independently verifiable. That means recipients can share their certificates online or directly with a potential employer via an Applicant Tracking System, and any claims can be automatically verified by checking the blockchain. No third party or school involvement is required to transmit official documents. —Chris Jagers, Learning Machine Blog
