So there is all this buzz about blockchain, cryptocurrency, and NFTs. It can seem quite overwhelming especially to non technical people.

However, as companies like Facebook, Microsoft, and Nike make their way into leveraging blockchain technology to participate in the future of the Web, you need to pay more attention to how this will impact us in our daily lives.

The changes will come quickly. You want to be educated to stay on the forefront of the trends and not be a late adopter to this new world.

Why should you care about the blockchain?

The blockchain is a decentralized ledger where data is stored and managed by a self-governed community. There is no one governing organization that controls blockchain technology.

When information is confirmed on the blockchain, the majority or 51% of the community must agree the information is correct by solving complex math equations. Because of this decentralized concept, data is more secure and less likely to be hacked or mismanaged.
