        abstract = {This is a blockchain-based decentralized file storage application designed to ensure secure, immutable, and tamper-proof file management. Users can upload files of any type and size, which are stored in blockchain blocks alongside metadata such as the username, file size, and file data. The application employs a proof- of-work mechanism with a difficulty level of 3, utilizing a randomly generated nonce to validate and secure each block. Once a block is appended to the blockchain, it becomes immutable, preventing any unauthorized modifications or deletions. The decentralized architecture allows all peers to access and download stored files, eliminating reliance on a central authority while enhancing reliability and security. This innovative approach leverages blockchain's immutability and transparency to provide a robust solution for secure file storage and sharing, addressing challenges such as data integrity and unauthorized access.},
