  • Abstract:
  • Blockchain is a shared, immutable ledger that facilitates the process of recording transactions and tracking assets in a business network. An asset can be tangible (a house, car, cash, land) or intangible (intellectual property, patents, copyrights, branding). Virtually anything of value can be tracked and traded on a blockchain network, reducing risk and cutting costs for all involved. Blockchains are distributed systems that log transaction records on linked blocks and store them on an encrypted digital ledger. In other words, a block is a record of new transaction (medical data like medical device logs, patient’s sensitive information, temperature-sensitive medicine info during transport TTSPP time, or the location of cryptocurrency). When a new block is completed it gets attached with the old previous blocks carrying information and this way blockchain is created.
