Security in blockchain Blockchain Blockchain comprises a digital network of blocks with a comprehensive ledger of transactions made in a cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin or other altcoins.One of the signature features of blockchain is that it is maintained across more than one computer. The ledger can be public or private (permissioned.) In this sense, blockchain is immune to the manipulation of data making it not only open but verifiable.

For instance, the banking sector is experiencing a shift with the adoption of smart contracts, a technology that is streamlining traditional financial processes while enhancing security.

As blockchain technology expands, smart contracts, which operate as self-executing contracts with terms coded into the blockchain, are reshaping banking transactions. The technology offers unprecedented efficiency and reliability, Finance Magnates recently reported.

Smart contracts are digital contracts that self-execute based on predefined conditions, leveraging blockchain technology. Unlike traditional contracts, they eliminate the need for intermediaries and execute actions automatically when specific conditions are met. This speeds up transactions and ensures accuracy.

Smart contracts reduce the time and resources needed for settlements and loan approvals for banking operations. Besides that, they minimize human error, leading to increased accuracy without the need for intermediaries. This benefits both banks and customers. However, some of the challenges banks face in the adoption of smart contracts include legal recognition and standardization.
