Global Blockchain in EduTech Market: Market Outlook

Blockchain technology is a distributed system that records and stores transactional records. More specifically, blockchain technology is a shared and immutable record of extensive peer-to-peer transactions built from interlinked transactional blocks and stored in a digital locker or a digital ledger.

Participant in a network can interact through the blockchain technology that is been established by cryptographic processes and techniques without any pre-existing dependence or trust between the involved parties. There is no central authority in a blockchain system.

Instead, transactional records are accumulated, stored and shared across all the network participants. Interactions with blockchain technology are known to all the involved participants and demand verification by the network before data is added, thus accommodating trustless collaboration among the network participants, while recording an unyielding and inflexible audit trail of all the interactions.
