What is blockchain technology?

How does blockchain technology work, and why is it considered very secure for cryptocurrencies?

[Kaile]

Blockchain technology is like a digital database where everyone can see the same information but can't change or manipulate the data. 
Data is stored in the form of blocks, so any new data that is added is added in the form of blocks, which makes it the most secure option. These blocks are linked together and form a chain. For this reason, we refer to it as a blockchain.

Its transparency, decentralized features, and data are present in encrypted form, making it a more secure option for cryptocurrency.
