Blockchain Technology: Wipe-Out The Misbelief

 


Whenever there is a conversation about blockchain, people behave like it’s a nigh-on impossible. But the reality is just the opposite since understanding blockchain is as easy as understanding the two words that make blockchain i.e. ‘block’ and ‘chain’. The block resembles records of any form of data and the chain associates the linkage between these blocks. Having said that, it’s not the easiest thing on the planet and can be grueling at times.


The technology is used for various business purposes to keep an unaltered record of its activities, mostly known for secure banking purposes. The decentralized form of blockchain is unchangeable because the blocks consist of the cryptographic hash value of the preceding block along with the time frame record. So, in order to make changes to any record in the blockchain, one should change every single hash and timestamp from every block present in the system. In simple words, the task is impossible for any human being as it takes tremendous time and is tedious as well. So, the demand for blockchain is high as companies would want immutable data for their businesses.





Blockchain differs from traditional databases in terms of structure and storage protocols. However, grasping the idea of this technology becomes much easier for beginners when it is compared to the normal database. This database is shared along a peer-to-peer network which enables every single node to access the same information. Furthermore, the change in one or a few nodes is not sufficient for altering the blockchain data. Hence, programs called scripts manage the distributivity and management of blockchain.


On the other hand, a strong encryption algorithm is applied to each block of data and the hash value of the previous block is placed on each next block to create an unbreakable chain as mentioned above. That is also the main reason that digital currencies like Bitcoin run on blockchain technology. Well, Satoshi Nakamoto, an anonymous founder of Bitcoin generated this platform in 2009 with the major highlight of eradicating third parties for monetary transactions.  


Blockchain can be used for several important purposes such as

  • Collecting votes in national elections,
  • Banking transactions,
  • Medical data for keeping unaltered health records of patients,
  • Non-fungible tokens(NFTs),
  • Fundraising sectors, 
  • Artificial intelligence, etc.


The conversations and discussions on blockchain and digital currencies should be widened in the least developed countries like Nepal as it could open up roads for employment and financial growth.

Looking at affluent companies that use blockchain might be convincing for readers who are still in doubt:

  • IBM
  • WallMart
  • Oracle
  • Microsoft
  • ConsenSys
  • Amazon
  • Bank Of America
  • Google and so on.

Corona is innocent, I'm insane

She born my body through her body And  You born my soul through your divine light Let me now be yours Since you were always mine Although I ignored you You were the one for me in hard times Fingers are pointed at Both you and they Where they blame my needs  And you show me the way The only thing I lament on is you making me so sensitive Too delicate for this time and pace Too slow to compete for this storm and race Oh God!!!

"How are you feeling miss Manishaa?"........... I looked up to see a young, beautiful, smiling lady in sky blue typical nurse's uniform standing beside me.                 "Umm....better",i whispered. I was lying in a bed (bed covered with blue bed sheets), my head resting on a soft pillow(that felt the softest pillow ever). The room was probably 320 square feet having spotlessly white-colored walls. On my left was a table (flower vase stayed calmly on the table), beside the table was a huge grey lounge(so huge that three like me could easily sleep). "How am I supposed to be here?....err...what happened to me?....and who brought me here?......since how long I'm here?..."I asked politely to the nurse and tried to be as calm as possible. My questions followed one after another like the semester exams not giving them time to pause(till then I was aware of being in a hospital bed)..... "Miss Manisha, Please take this medicine and rest. You can go

Why should a man play the major role in family's economy?

  Families in East Asia are considered to be perfect when men look after the family’s finances, women look after the kitchen and children and the elders(mostly men) take the major family decisions. The circumstances of perfection have changed a little bit as we see men changing baby diapers and cutting vegetables, women working outside the home and making money, and elders considering the opinion of other younger family members. But the major responsibility of kitchen and children goes to the women no matter how hard they work the whole day. This is the major issue which female activists have been raising now and then. Today I am not here to put my views upon this cliche topic though it’s important because all of you have been doing that time and again. For now, let's talk about men and the by birth duties that have been prescribed to them so that we might be able to find the route of equality for both men and women. It is unjust to hand over the major financial responsibility of a

That’s me!

  That’s me! I know a girl who is Brave but Sensitive Emotional and Creative Talkative as well as Tentative Actually, Her attitude fits in none of the nouns and adjectives shhhhh…….. I got a tale to tell Few of her secrets to yell   Once upon a time was a full moon(Purnima) with lots of flaws. She kept gasping for Oxygen while sharpening her claws. Her bold feminism and that downpouring rainstorm She was in a dilemma: whether to install an Internet Explorer or Google Chrome She thought: Time: high or low Will come and go Who will stay with even when I say no? Though it was raining, I saw her tears Even in that pitch darkness, I witnessed her fears She thought and thought and thought till her head cracked with pain Yet could not decide which web browser to actually claim  Among many, two were the most Between those two she herself was lost This or that or this or that or this……. Severe headache and stress so deep **ck that creep! She shut down her laptop and went to sleep

My mom always lived in the quarantine

Where the whole world is trembling with the fear of Coronavirus, it is my mother who doesn't give a damn about the virus. Let me describe my mom's personality before telling you guys about the secret of her quarantine.  My Mother is a quiet lady with an abundance of skills and intelligence. I am overwhelmed to see how she finds a solution to every little-big problem effortlessly. I often give her the title of an engineer as she has the intellect of an engineer, although her smallest daughter is going to get the certificate. She creates her own jewelry by giving them an extraordinary design, which is found in no market. She knows to make Dhaka cloth, knit woolen clothes, sing, etc none of which I am skilled at doing. Despite having all these qualities she lives in-home quarantine ever since I remember.  Talking about the experiences, my mother has traveled to more places than I ever had. She is the dear daughter of her lost father who still keeps pride in her birthplace and s

While passing through the sub-street of the heart of New York City at midday of February, something unusual stroked my head with an unexpected beat in my heart. Well! this was not the first time that I was walking through those large pavements. Those pavements touched the same old church, Rosemary's romantic cafe, department stores, a cyber, and so on. Though I lived in California, I used to visit my old, loving, and kind grandpa[an American citizen I have known in Nepal(my country)] in New York City every weekend. I could not understand what was happening to me as it had never happened in these long years in America. At an instant, my body was shivering with sharp goosebumps as if I was going to face an adventure. I held my breath and pressed my palms with my fingers(making the fist hard) as hard as I could. Before my mind could get the information from my eye nerves, my whole body turned back towards Rosemary's romantic cafe that I had just crossed. And then what I actually s
