Abstract

PeerCash is an decentralized application built on Ethereum blockchain technology. Decentralization means that there is no concept of having admin. Blockchain is a decentralized, distributed ledger secured technology which is immutable and verifiable. Every events in blockchain is recorded on blocks and it is encrypted using cryptography hashing. The advantage of PeerCash is that we can completely avoid the middle man from the web shopping payment system. That is we can completely remove the bank from interfering with our payment system and the buyer and seller can directly proceed their transaction and make their purchase. PeerCash transactions is completely recorded on blocks and the transactions is secured. So we can call PeerCash as a cryptocurrency. This paper describes about this application.
