A permissionless blockchain is a type of distributed ledger that allows any participant to join the network, validate transactions, and contribute to its consensus mechanism without needing prior authorization. It operates on principles of open access and censorship resistance. Such blockchains, like Bitcoin and Ethereum, are typically public and transparent. They promote broad participation and decentralization.
