About the technology
Blockchain is more than just the tech behind Bitcoin--much more Combining impenetrable security, decentralized transactions, and independently verifiable supply chains, blockchain applications have transformed currency, digital identity, and logistics. Platforms such as Ethereum and Hyperledger make it easy to get started by using familiar programming languages.

The only thing you need to get started is standard hardware and open source software.
