Ledger technology refers to systems used for recording and maintaining a chronological, immutable record of transactions. Traditional ledgers are centralized, controlled by a single entity. Distributed Ledger Technology, such as blockchain, operates as a decentralized, shared, and synchronized database across multiple participants. It provides transparency and resistance to tampering.
