Background Blockchain is highly secure version of Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) and it is

claimed by some very high profile supporters that it has the capacity to revolutionise the way financial institutions manage both payments and their FCC obligations. Its supporters talk in terms of “world changing” possibilities whereas its critics are unconvinced that

“secure” is really possible in the light of the numerous cyber breaches that have taken place recently. Is Blockchain the answer?
