Abstract

Blockchain technology, introduced by Satoshi Nakamoto in 2008, has undergone significant evolution from its origins in decentralized transaction documentation. Known for its transparency, robustness, and decentralization, blockchain now permeates various sectors, including finance, healthcare, supply chains, and the arts via Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs). The architecture of blockchain comprises five synergistic layers: Data, Contract, Consensus, Network, and Application. These layers collectively enhance the integrity, efficiency, and reliability of blockchain operations. The utility of blockchain extends beyond its foundational role in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin. It is instrumental in improving traceability in supply chains, securing electronic health records, and even democratizing the ownership of digital and physical assets through NFTs. As blockchain technology continues to mature, its potential for fostering transparency and efficiency presents opportunities for innovation across an expanding array of industries. This ongoing development not only promises to streamline current systems but also paves the way for novel applications that could transform the technological landscape.
