Welcome to the "Blockchain Basics" webinar! In this session, we'll dive into the world of blockchain technology and explore its fundamental concepts. Blockchain is a revolutionary technology that has the potential to disrupt various industries.

What is Blockchain?

Blockchain is a decentralized digital ledger that records transactions across many computers so that the record cannot be altered retroactively without the alteration of all subsequent blocks and the consensus of the network.

Key Features of Blockchain

  • Decentralization: Unlike traditional databases, blockchain is decentralized, meaning there is no single point of failure.
  • Transparency: All transactions are visible to anyone on the network, ensuring transparency and trust.
  • Security: Blockchain uses advanced cryptographic techniques to secure transactions and prevent fraud.
  • Immutability: Once a transaction is recorded on the blockchain, it cannot be altered or deleted.

Why is Blockchain Important?

  • Financial Industry: Blockchain technology is being explored for its potential to revolutionize the financial industry by providing a more secure and efficient way to transfer funds.
  • Supply Chain: Blockchain can improve supply chain transparency and efficiency by providing a decentralized and immutable record of transactions.
  • Healthcare: Blockchain can enhance patient data security and streamline healthcare processes.

How Does Blockchain Work?

The blockchain works by validating and recording transactions in blocks. These blocks are then linked together in a chain, forming a decentralized and secure ledger.

  • Transaction: A transaction is created and broadcasted to the network.
  • Validation: Nodes on the network validate the transaction.
  • Block Creation: Once the transaction is validated, it is added to a new block.
  • Chain Formation: The new block is added to the existing blockchain.
