Blockchain: A distributed database that maintains a continuously growing list of records (blocks) secured by cryptography. It is used in digital currencies and distributed systems to provide a secure and transparent way of storing and verifying data. For example, a blockchain network can be used to record and verify transactions in a decentralized manner without the need for a central authority.
