Abstract
Since its conceptualization, blockchain technology has witnessed continuous and rapid development, bringing profound changes to computer science, law, and economics. In 2008, the initial blockchain system was merely a growing list of records linked together using cryptography. Today, however, blockchains have become the foundation of most digital currencies, robust cloud computing platforms, and dependable databases for tracking supply chain information. Despite challenges and controversies, blockchain technology has the potential to help build a trustworthy and efficient digital world.
