By virtue of its nature, such as being an immutable trustworthy ledger of records, no single point of failure, no centralized third party, and decentralized trust, DLT and blockchain have created a hype (catalyzed by imagination) that allows us to envision various use cases of DLT and blockchain.
One such application of blockchain that grabbed everyone's attention is Bitcoin, which is a globally distributed immutable ledger of records. Since...
