Blockchain was created to reduce risk and cut costs for all involved. It is a shared, immutable ledger that facilitates recording transactions and tracking assets in an organization’s business network; this could be tangible items like cars or intangible ones such as intellectual property rights.

Anything with value gets tracked on Blockchain networks even if it does not seem valuable at first glance.

Elements of a Blockchain

Immutable records

Transactions are irreversible and tamper-proof, which makes them a great way to combat fraud. If the transaction doesn’t include an error, then it can stand on its own without any changes or adjustments being needed whatsoever.

Distributed ledger technology

In a traditional business network, records are often duplicated, and this leads to inefficiency. The immutable distributed ledger used by Nexus makes it so that each transaction is recorded only once.

Small contracts

Smart contracts have rules stored on the Blockchain; transactions can be executed automatically while adjusting depending on certain conditions. Imagine defining terms for corporate bond transfers with insurance and other protections in place without ever having to worry about them taking effect.

How Blockchain works

Every occurring transaction is recorded as a “block” of data

The data block is a new way to keep track of an asset, whether tangible or intangible. You can record ANY information you want: who, what, when, where, how much, and even the condition- such as temperature for food shipments.

Each block connects

Every block is different, and they form a chain of data as an asset moves from place to place or ownership changes hands. The blocks confirm the exact time and sequence of transactions, which prevents any in-between manipulation minutes. No matter how much pressure you apply to it with your fingernail - not even break.

The transaction is blocked again in an irreversible chain

Blockchain technology delivers the critical strength of immutability. It renders the blockchain tamper-evident and eliminates tampering by malicious actors, giving you a trustworthy ledger to count on.

Benefits of Blockchain

The arrival of Blockchain has revolutionized the way we do business. The rise in cyber-attacks and record-keeping fraud often leaves businesses vulnerable, which is why many are turning to this new technology for help with their data verification process.

Trust

Imagine a world where you can trust the data that is presented to you. Blockchain technology removes all doubt and ensures your information will not get shared with anyone outside the network.

Security

The network is more secure because it’s designed to have consensus on data accuracy and all validated transactions are immutable, ensuring that no one can ever tamper with them.

Efficiency

According to oschain.io, blockchain provides a shared database for recording transactions. With this system, time-wasting record reconciliations are eliminated, and speed increases since the intelligent contract executes automatically based on the blockchain network’s predetermined rules.
