The blockchain is a decentralized database stored on multiple computers as identical copies. Being decentralized in nature, a blockchain is highly secure as no single user can alter or remove an entry in the blockchain since it would require changing all the nodes, which is practically impossible.

Currently, 69 percent of banks are experimenting with blockchain technology to make their services more secure, seamless and transparent.
Despite the wonderful world of possibilities that the blockchain technology has opened up for us, most of us remain largely ignorant about the technology and its applications.
