Furthermore, it is a decentralized, distributed, and oftentimes public, digital ledger consisting of records called blocks that are used to record transactions across many computers so that any involved block cannot be altered retroactively, without the alteration of all subsequent blocks. Thus, the blockchain is popularly referred to as Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT).
