In this episode of In Simple Terms with Satish, we explore how new blocks are added to a blockchain through the process commonly known as mining.
This conversation explains how computers solve cryptographic puzzles, why this process keeps blockchains secure, and how agreement is reached before new data is added to the chain.
A clear, non-technical explanation of how blockchain networks stay trustworthy, decentralized, and resistant to tampering — one block at a time.
In Simple Terms — technology explained without the noise.
