Welcome to the essentials of blockchain technology. Here's a brief overview to get you started:

- Key Features 🌟
- Decentralization: No single entity controls the entire network.
- Immutability: Once data is recorded, it cannot be altered.
- Transparency: Transactions are visible to all participants.
- Security: Blockchain uses advanced cryptography to secure data.
Common Use Cases
- Cryptocurrency: Bitcoin, Ethereum, and others.
- Smart Contracts: Self-executing contracts with the terms directly written into code.
