Today, businesses across industries are leveraging blockchain for secure transactions, transparent supply chains, and streamlined operations. By offering a decentralized, tamper-proof ledger system, blockchain has the potential to transform how companies exchange value and build trust in the digital economy.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"649\" data-end=\"673\">What is Blockchain?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"675\" data-end=\"995\">Blockchain is a <strong data-start=\"691\" data-end=\"721\">distributed digital ledger<\/strong> that records transactions across multiple computers. Each transaction is stored in a \u201cblock\u201d and linked to the previous one, forming an immutable \u201cchain.\u201d This structure ensures that once data is recorded, it cannot be altered without the consensus of the entire network.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"997\" data-end=\"1027\">Key characteristics include:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"1029\" data-end=\"1310\">\n<li data-start=\"1029\"
