Blockchain technology is an emerging and rapidly growing technology in the current world scenario. It is a collection of records connected through cryptography. They play a vital role in smart contracts. Smart contracts are present in blockchains which are self-controlled and trustable. It can be integrated across various domains like healthcare, finance, self-sovereign identity, governance, logistics management and home care, etc. The purpose of this article is to analyze the various use cases of smart contracts in different domains and come up with a model which may be used in the future. Subsequently, a detailed description of a smart contract and blockchain is provided. Next, different case-studies related to five different domains is discussed with the help of use case diagrams. Finally, a solution for natural disaster management has been proposed by integrating smart contract, digital identity, policies and blockchain technologies, which can be used effectively for providing relief to victims during times of natural disaster.

The learning process has evolved with time. The primary change that technologies have brought into the learning process is more structure and activity based. It has become a necessity and a mandate as well to keep a track of details of educational activities so that it can be referred back to at any point in time. Moreover, it requires a secure protocol which is trustworthy, transparent, less vulnerable and requires near zero involvement of mediators. Blockchain technology has a tremendous potential to disrupt the education sector. Its implementation will help to maintain time-stamped record keeping that can be validated for all types of activities involved in the professional education system. This article proposes a blockchain-based model for professional education systems. The model not only ensures digital identity, verifiable records, but also motivates learning process by rewarding B-coins for learning activities. It inherits the security, robustness of underlying blockchain technology and eliminates the need for verification by an intermediate agency.
