Abstract:
The Internet of Things (IoT) has become increasingly popular over the past two decades. It has a significant impact on many aspects of daily life, including smart cities, intelligent transportation, manufacturing, and several other industries. Processing and networking abilities of the Internet of Things are condemned/ censorious in today’s highly technological environment. These systems are also reasonably priced when used on embedded platforms and consume little power (Ismail and Materwala, 2019). Nearly all IoT devices have bounded storage and random access memory with 8-bit or 16-bit microcontrollers (Bosamia and Patel, 2020). Emerging technologies, such as blockchains, can be altered to accommodate IoT networks’ and devices’ limitations and requirements. Nowadays, blockchain has become the most secure medium of data transmission. The main goal of this paper consists of the usage of web3 storage in the fusion chain platform along with the fusion chain’s lightweight block structur
e that can be used by IoT devices resulting in minimal CPU power consumption. Moreover, the development of two consensus algorithms for the performance evaluation of the fusion chain blockchain to balance the computational power with the Internet of Things is proposed.
