Abstract

News is a form of information sharing that tells the people about current event that is happening. With the advancement of technologies, the rate of spreading of the news is also increasing. One of the most popular places to read news is through the Internet. However, most of the people that read news from the Internet is not aware about the news sources. This leads to the spread of some fake news in society. In this paper, we suggest a way to verify a news using Ethereum smart contract and IPFS. There are four entities that involved in the system, such as Journalist as the one that provides the news, Validator as the one that will rate the news, Ethereum Smart Contract that will store the data inside the blockchain, and IPFS that will store the news and giving hash code to be stored inside the blockchain. This paper also analyzed the cost required to run the function of the smart contract deployed. The result is that all of the Rating Functions cost the same. However, the News Submit Function is not. The difference is the bigger the news stored in the IPFS, the more expensive the cost required to run the function.

使用以太坊智能合约和星际文件系统(IPFS)进行新闻验证

新闻是一种信息共享的形式，它告诉人们当前正在发生的事件。随着科技的进步，新闻的传播速度也在增加。最受欢迎的阅读新闻的地方之一是通过互联网。然而，大多数从互联网上阅读新闻的人并不知道新闻的来源。这导致了一些假新闻在社会上的传播。在本文中，我们提出了一种使用以太坊智能合约和IPFS来验证新闻的方法。系统中涉及四个实体，例如提供新闻的Journalist，对新闻进行评级的Validator，将数据存储在区块链中的以太坊智能合约，以及将存储新闻并给出哈希码存储在区块链中的IPFS。本文还分析了运行部署的智能合约功能所需的成本。结果是所有的评级函数的成本都是一样的。然而，新闻提交功能不是。不同之处在于IPFS中存储的新闻越大，运行该函数所需的成本就越高。
