In recent years, the blockchain technology has inspired widespread enthusiasm as a technology that can revolutionize IT usage in many industries. Potential usage of the technology are numerous and wide-ranging. The technology is specifically useful in the financial and business sectors. Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML), crowd funding, digital identity and asset management, chain of custody and supply chain management, regulatory reporting and tax automation are just few examples where application of the technology can transform how we do business and finance.
In the blockchain technology, a collection of autonomous, possibly mutually distrusted entities come together to form a peer-to-peer network, called a blockchain network. The distributed blockchain network maintains a ledger of transactions in the form of a chain of blocks. Each network participant, called a miner or peer, validates all transactions sent to the ledger and maintains a complete copy of the transaction ledger in its local storage.Only those transactions accepted by the majority network participants stay in the ledger – others are rejected. Blocks of transactions are chained in the ledger in such a manner that it is impossible to compromise the ledgerif the majority network participants remain honest. The resiliency of the blockchain network allows it to be treated as a distributed computer where programs encoding real-world business logic, called smart contract, can be deployed and executed to automate many financial and business processing.
