Digital Signature in Blockchain

When you write your name and sign on a piece of paper, it means that you agree with what's written on that paper, right?

That's the case for Digital Signature in Blockchain. In blockchain, instead of a pen and paper, we use computers. But, just like normal signatures when someome say "Yes, I agree with this information," they use a digital signature instead of a pen.

A digital signature is like a special seal or stamp that proves who sent a message or made a transaction. It is a way of ensuring that information in the blockchain system is authentic and not tampered with.😏

Let's use this example Just like phones with fingerprints, you can only access your phone with your unique fingerprint, that's your digital signature. It's more of a verification process.

So, when someone wants to make sure something in the blockchain is real and doesn't look suspicious, they check the digital signature to see if it matches the one that person used. If it matches, it means that person has access.

DS helps to make sure that all the information recorded in it is trustworthy and gets to the right people. Did you get something?
