What is a Blockchain?
A blockchain is basically a shared digital record that stores information across many computers instead of keeping everything in one central place.
Think of it like a digital ledger that many computers agree on. �

Why “Block” + “Chain”?
Transactions are grouped together into blocks.
Each new block is connected to the previous one, forming a chain.
That’s where the name Blockchain comes from. �

Who controls it?
Instead of one company or bank controlling the entire database, blockchain networks use many independent computers called nodes.
These nodes help maintain and verify the network. �

What makes it different?
Once information is properly added to the blockchain, changing it later is extremely difficult because the blocks are cryptographically linked together and the network must agree on the state. �

What is Blockchain used for?
Blockchain can power:
• Digital currencies
• DeFi
• NFTs & digital ownership
• DAOs
• Smart contracts
• Decentralized applications
Ethereum, for example, uses blockchain infrastructure to support applications and smart contracts. �

Simple example
Imagine 1,000 people have the same notebook.
Whenever a transaction happens, everyone updates their copy.
If someone tries to secretly change their own copy, the others can see that it doesn't match.
That’s the basic idea behind a distributed ledger.

The important part
Blockchain is not the same thing as cryptocurrency.
Crypto is one use case of blockchain technology.
Blockchain is the underlying technology that can support many different types of applications.

Remember this:
Blockchain = shared digital infrastructure for recording and verifying information without relying on one central database.
