WHAT IS BLOCK CHAIN?
➤ Blockchain is a cloud based database shared by every participant in a given system. The blockchain contains the complete transaction of the crypto currency or other record keeping in other applications. Think of it as a cloud cased peer to peer ledger.
➤ It uses cryptography and a distributed messaging protocol to create a shared ledger between trading counterparties.
➤ This is made possible by simple transfer of assets through smart contracts
➤ Data on the ledger is persistent and transactions cannot be lost or corrupted by participants
➤ Suggested use cases include - KYC, AML, Reg reporting and Clearing and settlements
