What is blockchain technology?
Blockchain technology is a cutting-edge database mechanism that facilitates transparent information sharing within a business network. It operates on a structure of blocks, interconnected like a chain. The data stored in these blocks remains chronologically consistent, as modifications or deletions require network consensus. This immutability enables the creation of secure and tamper-resistant ledgers, tracking orders, payments, accounts, and various transactions.
Through built-in safeguards, blockchain prevents unauthorized transaction entries and maintains consistency across the entire transaction history. This ensures that all participants in the network share a trustworthy and synchronized view of the data. Embracing blockchain technology empowers businesses with a robust and reliable infrastructure for seamless and accountable data management, revolutionizing the way transactions are conducted in the modern digital era.
What are blocks in a blockchain?
In a blockchain, blocks are the fundamental units of data that store information about transactions, records, or any other data relevant to the blockchain network. Each block contains a specific set of data and is linked to the previous block through cryptographic hashing, forming a continuous chain of blocks.
