Utilise 5G Mobile Handset as DAO and Node in Layer 1 Proof of Authority Blockchain

As the demand for real-time, secure, and scalable transactions continues to rise, the intersection of 5G mobile connectivity and blockchain technology presents a promising solution. This paper proposes a novel approach to leverage the high-speed and low-latency capabilities of 5G mobile networks, integrating them as nodes in a Layer 1 Proof of Authority (PoA) blockchain architecture for microtransactions. Several advantages are achieved by utilising 5G mobile connections as nodes in the blockchain network. Firstly, the ultra-fast data transmission speeds and low network latency of 5G networks enhance the efficiency of blockchain transactions, enabling near-instantaneous settlement of microtransactions. Secondly, the distributed nature of the blockchain, combined with the security features provided by 5G networks, ensures a robust and tamper-proof transactional environment.
