Ledger-based recordkeeping involves maintaining records of transactions and ownership on a distributed or centralized digital ledger. This system provides a transparent, immutable, and auditable history of all entries. It contrasts with traditional recordkeeping, which often relies on disparate databases and manual reconciliation. The digital ledger serves as the authoritative source of truth.
