Decentralization in Blockchain

One of the key features of blockchain is its decentralization. In traditional systems, information is usually stored on a central server, controlled by a single entity. However, in blockchain, data is distributed across a network of computers (nodes).

This feature is important for several reasons:

1. Increased Security: Since data is stored in multiple locations, hacking or manipulating it becomes much more difficult. To alter information, one would need to control over half of the network, which is nearly impossible.


2. Transparency: Everyone in the network can access the data and observe any changes. This makes it easy to detect fraud or misconduct.


3. No Dependence on a Central Authority: Users can transact with one another without the need for intermediaries. This reduces costs and increases transaction speed.



These features make blockchain an attractive technology for many industries and have the potential to change the way businesses operate.
