What Is a Blockchain?

A blockchain is like a shared diary that everyone can see and add to, but no one can change the past. Imagine you and your friends all have copies of the same diary. When someone writes something new in it, every copy updates automatically. This makes sure nobody can cheat or lie about what happened before. That’s how blockchain works, simple, fair, and super secure!
