Examining Various ML Approaches in Blockchain for Fraud Detection

Abstract: Fraudulent transactions significantly impact blockchain network trust and the economy. Traditional consensus methods (e.g., proof of work or proof of stake) can't confirm the identity of participants, leaving the network susceptible to fraud. Machine learning algorithms offer a potential solution to detect fraudulent transactions and participants. Fraudulent exchanges in the blockchain economy deter investors and raise skepticism. This study explores the effectiveness of controlled AI and deep learning models in identifying fraudulent transactions and users, integrating machine learning with blockchain technology.
