A tamper-proof, shared digital append-only ledger that records transactions grouped into blocks in a decentralized peer-to-peer network. The permanent recording of transactions in the Blockchain stores permanently the history of asset exchanges that take place between the peers.
Updating the ledger (usually) requires solving Byzantine Agreements (hash) with economically incentivized participation, secured by cryptography
1. Transaction is broadcasted
2. Each node collects transaction into blocks
3. Each round a random node is selected to state the "truth"
4. Other nodes accept it only if certain conditions are met
5. They express acceptation by including the block's hash into their next blocks
