2023 Digital Nigeria Conference Abuja Roadshow :Harnessing Digital Technologies for a Brighter Future

Blockchain is a decentralized, distributed ledger technology that records transactions across multiple computers in a way that is secure, transparent, and tamper-resistant. 

Have you been hearing of blockchain but you still don't know what it is?🤔
 
In a simple term &nbsp;blockchain is a special kind of digital ledger, it's like a record book, but instead of being on paper in one location, it's copied and distributed across a network of computers around the world. This record book keeps track of transactions, like who owns what and how things move from one person to another.
 
&nbsp;Special Qualities✨
 
✅ &nbsp;Distributed: The information/ data &nbsp;is spread out across a network of computers, making it decentralized and not controlled by any single entity.
 
✅ Immutable: Once information is added to the blockchain, it's very difficult to change or delete it. This creates a secure and transparent record of transact &nbsp;a complex system of codes, to ensure the accuracy and security of information.
 
✅ Secure: Blockchain uses cryptography, a complex system of codes, to ensure the accuracy and security of information.
 
How Does Blockchain Work?
 
Think of the ledger as a chain of blocks, where each block contains information about a transaction. These blocks are linked together in a chronological order, forming a secure chain.&nbsp;
 
✅ A transaction occurs: This could be anything from sending money to transferring ownership of a digital asset.
 
✅ The transaction is verified: Computers on the network, called miners, compete to solve a complex math problem. The first miner to solve it gets to add the transaction to the next block.
 
✅ &nbsp;The block is added to the chain: The new block includes the transaction data and a reference to the previous block, creating a tamper-proof chain.
 
What is Blockchain Used For?
It is used for:&nbsp;
 
• Finance: Secure and transparent recordkeeping for transactions and ownership.
 
• Supply Chain Management: Tracking the movement of goods from origin to destination.
 
• Voting: Creating a secure and auditable voting system.
 
• Healthcare: Storing and sharing medical records securely.
 
The Benefits of Blockchain are:&nbsp;
 
• Security: The distributed and tamper-proof nature of blockchain makes it highly secure.
 
• Transparency: Everyone on the network can see the transaction history, creating transparency and trust.
 
• Efficiency: Blockchain can automate processes and reduce the need for intermediaries.
 
Blockchain secures, tracks, fosters trust, &amp; streamlines processes for a faster, cheaper, &amp; more transparent tech experience.
