The ledger can be accessible to some or all users, and the information stored on it can be verified and audited. Peer-to-peer transfers that have value can be recorded on a DLT. The value transferred could be money, securities, or even personal information....Read more

Cryptocurrency is generally defined as a digital or virtual currency that uses cryptography for security and operates independent of a government, central bank, or similar authority. Cryptography is used to regulate the release of currency units and to verify financial transactions.

The transaction also requires the sender to confirm the transfer with a private key. ...Read more
