There is nothing more powerful than an idea, whose time has come.
What is Blockchain ?
Blockchain is a set of growing records that are bound with one another using cryptographic algorithms. It allows records, called as blocks to be distributed among different system without being copied. Imagine that, you can see all the transactions that are being carried out in your bank. The main ledger, if is seen by thousands of people, would there be any malpractice anymore.
The prime idea of blockchain was for Bitcoin, but now the tech community is now finding other potential uses for the technology.
What is Bitcoin ?
It is the first decentralized digital currency, as the system works without a central bank or single administrator. The system works as a peer-to-peer network, in which transactions take place between users directly, without an intermediary. These transactions are verified by blockchain. Bitcoin was invented by an unknown person or group of people using the name Satoshi Nakamoto and released as open-source software in 2009. It's value started growing up to peak in December 2017. It gained everybody's attention from then.
Blockchain system is going to change your life from the way you transact business or manage assets, to the way you use your machines, vote, rent a car, and even prove who you are. Along the way, it will transform banks and other financial institutions, hospitals, companies, and governments among others.
It’s important to note that for the blockchain to work, the node-to-node network must be motivated and agree to work under ethical standards. Once, and only if, these standards are adhered to, the blockchain could become a powerful tool for improving business, conducting fair trade, democratizing the global economy, and helping support more open and fair societies.
