Private DLT

Definition

A Private DLT is a permissioned distributed ledger technology where participation is restricted and controlled. Unlike public blockchains, a central authority or consortium manages access, dictating who can join the network, validate transactions, or access specific data. This architecture offers enhanced privacy, higher transaction speeds, and greater control over governance, making it suitable for enterprise applications. Participants are typically known and vetted, allowing for specific regulatory and compliance requirements to be met.
