A ‘Public Blockchain’ is a distributed ledger system that is open for anyone to participate in, read transactions, and contribute to the consensus process. These networks are characterized by their decentralized nature and the absence of a single controlling entity. They form the foundation for many cryptocurrencies and decentralized applications.
