Blockchain is also known as Distribution Ledger Technology (DLT). An article published by Built-in, defines blockchain as it makes history of any digital assets unalterable and transparent through the use of decentralization and cryptographic hashing. In simple words, Blockchain is a type of database that takes a number if records and puts them into blocks.
Let’s understand blockchain with the help of a simple analogy ‘Google Doc’.
When we create document, and share it with the group of people. The document is distributed not copied or transferred. This Creates a decentralized chain that allows all the users to access document at the same time. None of the users ate locked out awaiting changes from other users.
All Modification to the document are recorded in real-time, making changes completely transparent. Blockchain is defiantly more complex then Google Doc.
The idea of analogy is that-
- Digital assets are distributed instead of copied or transferred.
- The asset is decentralization
- Transparent ledger of changes
