Application and tooling developers are encouraged to use Sepolia to test applications, smart contracts, and other EVM functionality. Its permissioned validator set provides a stable test environment. Alternatively,…

What is Blockchain? Blockchain is a decentralized, digital ledger that records transactions across multiple computers in a network. It’s best known as the technology behind cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, but its applications extend far beyond digital money. Unlike traditional ledgers maintained by a single authority, blockchain operates without a central control point, making it secure, transparent, and resistant to fraud. Key Characteristics of Blockchain Decentralization: Blockchain operates on a peer-to-peer network where no single entity controls the data. All participants have a copy of the ledger, ensuring consensus rather than relying on a middleman. Immutability: Once recorded, transactions cannot be altered…

Blockchain technology has long been synonymous with cryptocurrency, particularly Bitcoin. However, its potential extends far beyond digital currency. At its core, blockchain is a decentralized, immutable ledger that records transactions across numerous computers, making it secure, transparent, and resistant to fraud. This foundational technology has sparked innovation across various sectors, from supply chain management to healthcare and voting systems. ### Decentralized Finance (DeFi) One of the most significant applications of blockchain beyond cryptocurrency is DeFi. Unlike traditional finance, which relies on intermediaries like banks and clearinghouses, DeFi leverages decentralized networks and smart contracts to facilitate lending, borrowing, trading, and other…
