Cryptocurrencies make use of distributed public ledger called a blockchain to run. When users transfer the cryptocurrency funds, their transactions are recorded in this public ledger (Blockchain). A blockchain consists of a record of all the updated and held transactions by currency holders. A mining process is used to create units of cryptocurrency.
