1. Define Blockchain extensively.

Blockchain is shorthand for a whole range of distributed ledger technologies that can
be designed to record and monitor anything of value from financial transactions to medical
records, which you would assume we already have processes in place to track data.

2. List down its uses or its potential in the future.


• When it comes to monitoring supply, blockchain is also particularly handy.
Businesses should be able to quickly identify inefficiencies within their
supply chains by removing paper-based trails, as well as to locate items in
real-time. Besides, blockchain would allow companies, and possibly even
customers, to see how goods performed from a quality-control perspective
as they traveled to the retailer from their place of origin.
• Copyright and ownership laws on music and other content have become
hazy in a world of increasing internet access. With blockchain, these
copyright laws will be greatly improved for downloading of digital material,
ensuring that their fair share is earned by the artist or producer of the
material being bought. The blockchain would also provide musicians and
creators of content with real-time and transparent royalty distribution data.
