DLT Technology

Definition

DLT technology refers to distributed ledger technology, a decentralized system for recording transactions across multiple computers. DLT systems maintain a continuously synchronized, immutable database across a network of nodes, with each node holding an identical copy of the ledger. This architecture eliminates the need for a central authority to validate or store transactions. Blockchain is a specific type of DLT that organizes data into blocks linked cryptographically. DLT offers enhanced transparency, security, and efficiency for various applications beyond cryptocurrencies.
