What’s Blockchain, Simply Put? A blockchain is a secure and open digital ledger system that cannot be tampered with or changed at any time. This means that everyone on the ledger has access to all recorded entries within the blockchain at every moment in the lifespan of the transaction.

Benefits of a Blockchain It is ‘trustless’ and allows for ‘trust and verification’ for all transactions committed to the ledger. It operates through consensus and cannot be tampered with by a single individual or entity. It provides an immutable public record of transactions which add to transparency, accounting and compliance measures. It removes the risk of forgery and eliminates the ‘double-spend’ problem. It enables an interconnected financial ecosystems and global value transfer systems. It provides mathematical and digital representation of real world objects towards the “Internet of Things” Every single person can participate following the same rules
