Blockchain Basic Learning Path - From Bitcoin to Web 3.0… the technologies around blockchain Created byLaia Güell Paule|Updated05 October 2023Although some initiatives had been published around those topics earlier, it is back in 2008 that Satoshi Nakamoto introduced the concept of a cryptocurrency (Bitcoin) that could be managed securely and independently from a central authority thanks to the use of a Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) aka blockchain. This technology allows to securely store information in a way that is secure, immutable, transparent and resilient, even in case of malicious behaviors.
