Blockchain technology facilitates secure and transparent peer-to-peer transactions․ Unlike traditional systems that rely on intermediaries, blockchain allows direct transfer of value․

Initiating a Transaction
A transaction begins when someone wants to send value (e․g․, Bitcoin) to another person․ This transaction is represented as a data record containing sender’s and receiver’s addresses and the amount being sent․
Verification and Mining
The transaction is then broadcast to a network of computers, called nodes, that validate it․ Miners, special nodes, group valid transactions into a block․ They solve a complex computational problem to add the block to the existing blockchain, a process known as mining․
Adding to the Blockchain
Once a miner solves the problem, the new block is added to the chain, becoming part of the permanent, immutable record․ This block contains a hash of the previous block, linking them cryptographically․
Confirmation and Completion
As more blocks are added after the block containing your transaction, confirmations increase․ After enough confirmations, the transaction is considered final and irreversible․ The receiver now has the funds․
Each owner transfers value by digitally signing a hash of the previous transaction․ Blockchain is a digital ledger, recording transactions across computers․ Bitcoin transactions explained in steps involve peer-to-peer transfers without banks․ Blockchain’s potential stretches beyond finance․

This decentralized and secure process ensures trust and transparency in every transaction․ The technology’s applications extend beyond cryptocurrencies, impacting supply chain management, healthcare, and more․
Blockchain is revolutionizing how we exchange value and manage data, offering a more secure and efficient alternative to traditional systems․
