A blockchain is a decentralized, distributed and public digital ledger that is used to record transactions across many computers. Blockchain records are immutable so it cannot be altered retroactively without the alteration of all subsequent blocks and the consensus of the network.

Satoshi Nakamoto invented blockchain in 2008 to solve double-spending problem in bitcoin, making it the first digital currency without a trusted authority or central server.

The blockchain is tamperproof, as each block contains a unique identifier, timestamped transactions, and the previous block’s hash. This method links blocks together, preventing any alteration or insertion between existing blocks, making it a secure.

Smart contracts are agreements or rules governing business transactions stored on blockchains, executed automatically. Consensus is achieved through various mechanisms like proof of stake and PBFT, ensuring all parties agree to the network-verified transaction.
