What Is Blockchain Immutability?
Immutability can be referred to as the ability of a blockchain ledger to remain unaltered and unchanged.This means that the data kept in a blockchain cannot be altered. Furthermore, each block of information like transaction details uses a cryptographic principle or a hash value to keep the data unaltered.
You should also note that blockchain is decentralized and distributed in nature as consensus is made among the numerous nodes that store the replica of the data. This consensus ensures that the data originality is maintained.
