Blockchain Security Proofs

Definition

Blockchain security proofs are cryptographic mechanisms that validate transactions and maintain the integrity of a distributed ledger. These mathematical constructions ensure data immutability and resistance to unauthorized alterations across the network. They form the fundamental basis for trust in decentralized systems, verifying that recorded information is authentic and untampered. These proofs are essential for safeguarding digital assets and transaction histories from malicious actors.
