Over the past few years, Blockchain has emerged as a technology that is now discussed everywhere. From the tech corridors of Silicon Valley to the thriving tech capitals in multiple cities worldwide – Blockchain has become the talk of the town.
Everyone is excited about this modern technology, especially after a few staggering NFT sales surfaced on the internet.
However, many still don’t know what Blockchain is, yet they are eager to know what benefits has it hidden for the future.

It is indeed a revolutionary technology that is ready to power software systems around the globe. All the information or data that is verified is stored in the block in chronological order. Each block is linked with the previous one, forming a Blockchain.
