Public vs Private Blockchains: What’s the Difference?

In this episode of In Simple Terms with Satish, we explore whether all blockchains are open to everyone and why that distinction matters.

This conversation breaks down the difference between public and private blockchains, how access and control vary between them, and where each type is commonly used across industries and organizations.

A clear, non-technical explanation of how different blockchain models balance openness, security, and control — and why there’s no one-size-fits-all approach.
