Blockchain technology is most commonly utilized in the digital currency industry. The distributed and decentralized nature of blockchain technology aids in resolving several problems with knowledge processing security, transparency, trust, and dependability in businesses and organizations. Blockchain is a decentralized, peer-to-peer ledger or database that can be used safely with cryptocurrencies to manage all online transactions. Every node that updates its ledger to confirm a new node before adding it to the blockchain does so by updating the ledger with any modifications made. The most recent version of this ledger is then broadcast around the network. The collection of all transactions carried out by different users is known as the blockchain ledger or database. In its most basic form, a blockchain is a distributed ledger that keeps track of individual transactions in a tamper-proof manner. Each block in the chain is linked to the others in a linked list, and each block contains a timestamp and a link to a previous block that provides security. This manuscript will review the many forms of blockchain, how they function, and how they support cryptocurrencies like Litecoin, Ethereum, and Bitcoin
