Internet of Things (IOT) :
Blockchain technology has emerged as the next revolutionary technology since inception of Bitcoin in 2008. Though blockchain began as a core technology of Bitcoin, its applications are expanding to include finance, the Internet of Things (IoT), security, and other areas. We propose that blockchain be used to build an IoT system. We can control and configure IoT devices using blockchain. We manage keys using RSA public key cryptosystems, which store public keys in Ethereum and private keys on individual devices. Even though we can simply use account as a key management system, which most of blockchain platform supports, we decided to use Ethereum because we can manage the system in a more fine-grained way.
