The Technology Behind Bitcoin: Blockchain

Henri Arslanian

Chapter Chapter 5 in The Book of Crypto, 2022, pp 121-132 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The technology that powers Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies can often be difficult to grasp. For instance, how does blockchain technology actually work? What use cases can it be applied to? And what distinguishes a public blockchain from a private blockchain? In this chapter, we provide a clear layout of how blockchains function, from the use cases this technology can be put towards to which industrial sectors around the globe can most benefit from continued blockchain adoption.
