Launch a Blockchain-Based Patent Registration and Verification System

Use blockchain to secure intellectual property through immutable timestamps, inventor verification, and transparent ownership tracking.

Why Use Blockchain for Patent Registration?

Traditional patent registration is slow, opaque, and vulnerable to tampering. Blockchain ensures tamper-proof, time-stamped, and publicly verifiable ownership records that reduce legal disputes and improve transparency for innovation claims.

Project Objective

Develop a decentralized platform where inventors can register patents by submitting hashed documents, receive immutable proof of ownership and timestamp, and allow anyone to verify originality and submission time through the blockchain.

Key Features of the Patent System

Patent Hash Timestamping

Inventors upload their work, which is hashed and timestamped on-chain to prove creation date.

Ownership Registry

Smart contracts store the submitter’s address, hash, and timestamp as proof of authorship.

Public Verifiability

Anyone can verify a patent claim by comparing document hashes with on-chain entries.

Transferable IP Rights

Allow optional transfer of patent rights via smart contract-based ownership reassignment.

System Architecture Overview

Users upload a document, and a cryptographic hash (SHA-256 or Keccak-256) is generated in the frontend. The hash, submitter wallet address, and timestamp are stored in a smart contract. Ownership can be verified or transferred by querying the blockchain with the hash.

  • Solidity smart contracts for patent entries and transfers
  • Frontend interface for file upload, verification, and search
  • Local hash generation using CryptoJS or ethers.utils
  • MetaMask login and signer identity verification
  • Optional IPFS storage for non-confidential patent content
Recommended Tech Stack

Blockchain

Ethereum or Polygon for secure and public recording

Smart Contracts

Solidity with mapping of hash → owner and timestamp

Frontend

React.js with Web3.js/Ethers.js and file hashing

Storage

IPFS for optional document upload and metadata storage

Development Roadmap

1. Create Smart Contract for Patent Registry

Store hashes of patent documents with timestamp and wallet address.

2. Build File Hashing and Upload Interface

Use CryptoJS to generate SHA-256 or Keccak256 hash of files in-browser.

3. Enable On-Chain Verification

Allow users to input a document and check if it matches an existing registered hash.

4. Add Ownership Transfer Logic

Support patent ownership transfers with wallet signatures and history logging.

5. Deploy Test Registry with Sample Patents

Register mock patents on a testnet and test the full flow of timestamping and verification.
