This research is being carried out because there is no literature review on Blockchain Technology, and so, this chapter will ease the research of the scholars who want to know about Blockchain Technology. This research is important because this chapter will make people aware about Blockchain and all the places it is used and how people can benefit from this technology. Search terms identified more than 30 papers in support of blockchain technologies.
