       About Blockchain Tech and Decentralization

       Blockchain is the technology the underpins digital currency
       (Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum, and the like). The tech allows
       digital information to be distributed, but not copied. That
       means each individual piece of data can only have one owner. The
       information is constantly reconciled into the database, which is
       stored in multiple locations and updated instantly. That means
       the records are public and verifiable. Since there’s no central
       location, it harder to hack since the info exists simultaneously
       in millions of places. Blockchain technology was invented in
       2008, but only came into the public conversation when Bitcoin
       launched.
       Decentralization is the process of distributing and dispersing
       power away from a central authority. Most financial and
       governmental systems, which are currently in existence, are
       centralized, meaning that there is a single highest authority in
       charge of managing them, such as a central bank or state
       apparatus.
