Blockchain Technology Presentation

Blockchain technology underlies cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin. It allows digital information to be recorded and distributed, but not edited, deleted, or modified, creating an open yet secure system. A blockchain is a growing list of data blocks linked together, containing a digital record of transactions. It works through consensus across a network of participants to validate transactions and agree on a single shared ledger, without a central authority. This cuts out middlemen and makes the records transparent, immutable, and resistant to tampering.
