A blockchain is a decentralized, digital ledger of transactions that uses cryptography to record and verify transactions on multiple computers. It is a continuously growing list of records, called blocks, which are linked and secured using cryptography.
Each block typically contains a cryptographic hash of the previous block, a timestamp, and transaction data. By design, a blockchain is resistant to modification of the data.
Blockchains are often associated with the concept of cryptocurrencies, as the first and most well-known blockchain is the one that underlies the Bitcoin digital currency. However, the technology has potential uses in many other fields as well, such as supply chain management, voting systems, and digital identity.
There are many books available on the topic of blockchain technology, covering a wide range of topics and perspectives.
