Blockchain is considered as distributed records or lists assigned to network nodes. They store information in blocks where each block is linked to the previous one. These blocks establish a chain (blockchain). Initially, blockchains were created for cryptocurrency systems to sustain a secure and decentralized collection of transactions. Soon after, many different applications of blockchains emerged.
Financial systems depend on key agencies and trustworthy intermediaries to smoothen the progress of business transactions. Blockchain as a technology minimizes the need for such authorities. Blockchain assists in the authentication and trackability of various transactions that need verification and traceability. It can ensure secure transactions, minimize compliance costs, and accelerate data transfer handling. The technology can assist in managing contracts and the auditing of the source of an artifact.
Principles and Practice of Blockchains provides an essential compilation of relevant and cutting-edge academic and industry work on key blockchain topics. Further, it introduces blockchains to the public at large to develop their blockchain knowledge and awareness. The book can be a valuable resource to blockchain experts towards their professional development efforts and to students as a supplement to their cybersecurity courses. It provides a glimpse of future directions where blockchains are heading. The book is a rich collection of carefully selected and reviewed manuscripts written by diverse blockchain experts in the listed fields and edited by prominent blockchain researchers and specialists.
