What is Blockchain?
It is a digital ledger of financial transactions that is configured to save a record of all financial information. In a blockchain, information is stored in shared networks between multiple computers. Since it is not stored in a single location it becomes easy to verify and access all the transactions. Blockchain technology was first used by the Bitcoin currency and gained popularity with the success of the crypto-currency. Block-chain is a form of decentralized technology that makes it easy to verify financial transactions. Some analysts believe that blockchain could deliver savings of close to US$ 10 billion if used in the securities and settlement markets. In the coming years, blockchain will be implemented to create smart contracts, distributed accounting ledgers, auditing of supply chains and information storage.
