In this technology, other users or developers have the opportunity to modify it as they see fit. But most important about it being open source is that it makes altering logged data within a blockchain incredibly difficult.\r\n\t</li>\r\n\t<li>\r\n\tTransaction costs: Transaction cost will be less because blockchain allows the party to party business-to-business transactions to be completed without the need for a third party, which is often a bank. Since there no other one involved in transactions that’s why it reduces costs to the user or businesses over time.\r\n\t</li>\r\n\t<li>\r\n\tDurability: When there’s no central regulator, there’s no central point of failure as well. The blockchain is more resistant to different types of malicious attacks.\r\n\t</li>\r\n\t<li>\r\n\tDistributed database:  It is a distributed database, in a block change each entity on a blockchain can access records on the entire database, but no single entity controls the data or the information.\r\n\t</li>\r\n\t<li>\r\n\tLoss of data: All miner has a full copy of the ledger on their system, it is virtually impossible to lose the data stored on a blockchain\r\n\t</li>\r\n\t<li>\r\n\tProvide high accuracy: Since all the execution of contracts and other processes are automated, the errors are much less possible.\r\n\t</li>\r\n\t<li>\r\n\tIncreased security: All information is encrypted, something which adds security by its own. Also, the fact that the users can not interfere with the system and change the information stored in the blockchain protects the market from fraudulent activities and various documentary manipulations.\r\n\t</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n\r\nUses of Blockchain\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>\r\n\tPayment processing and money transfers: The most logical use for blockchain is as a means to further the transfer of funds from one party to another. As noted, with banks removed from the equation, and validation of transactions ongoing 24 hours a day, seven days a week, most transactions processed over a blockchain can be settled within a matter of seconds.\r\n\t</li>\r\n\t<li>\r\n\tMonitor supply chains: Blockchain also comes in mainly useful when it comes to monitoring supply chains. By removing paper-based trails, businesses should be able to pinpoint inefficiencies within their supply chains quickly, as well as locate items in real time.\r\n\t</li>\r\n\t<li>\r\n\tEquity trading: At some point, blockchain could rival or replace current equity trading platforms to buy or sell stocks. Because blockchain networks validate and settle transactions so quickly, it could eliminate the multiday wait time investors encounter when selling stocks and seeking access to their funds for the purpose of reinvestment or withdrawal.\r\n\t</li>\r\n\t<li>\r\n\tImmutable data backup: Blockchain may also be the perfect way to back up data. Even though cloud storage systems are designed to be a go-to source for data safekeeping, they’re not immune to hackers, or even infrastructure problems.\r\n\t</li>\r\n\t<li>\r\n\tDigital voting : Blockchain offers the ability to vote digitally, but it’s transparent enough that any regulators would be able to see if something were changed on the network.\r\n\t</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n', image: '1542628826.jpg', post_date: '2019-08-21', created_at: '2019-07-25 15:03:33', created_by: 5cb5d954064f070fa8edc9a5, __v: 0, updated_by: 5cb5d954064f070fa8edc9a5 }
