What is Blockchain?

Blochchain is a decentralized, distributed and public digital ledger that is used to record transactions accross many computers so that involved record cannot be altered.

  • Decentralized - no unit can take control over it;
  • A distributed ledger is a database that is consensually shared and synchronized across multiple sites, institutions, or geographies, accessible by multiple people. It allows transactions to have public "witnesses".

    Why Blockchain

    Blockchain demand is booming as comapies are turning to blockchain to change the way people consume and use data. Blockchain is not all about cryptocurrency, this is just one application of Blochchain.
    Imagine if the department/ministry of Lands could use blockchain to store land data, this could reduce land frauds by 90%.
    Over the next 4 months you will learn how to Create your own private blockchain, and secure a digital asset using blockchain identity. Explore the Ethereum platform, and use Solidity and smart contracts to develop your own decentralized app.
