- [02:11] Blockchain is a method of data storage. It's a distributive ledger. It's like a giant spreadsheet that is duplicated thousands of times on a network of computers that also keeps it updated.
- [02:54] The data is public and easily verifiable. It doesn't have a single location or a single point of failure.
- [03:40] When transactions occur, the data is encoded in digital data or encrypted. Each block is connected to the one before it and the one after it and it creates a chain.
- [04:52] Blockchain provides you with an immutable indelible record of your transactions or data. A software interface using blockchain will be customized by the industry.
