I think the best projects understand that they don't need to invent a new currency. They don't need to use the block chain as their long-term data storage solution. And they don't need to use the peer-to-peer network as their communication mechanism. They should use the block chain as the world's most secure distributed ledger.

The blockchain concept was pioneered within the context of crypto-currency Bitcoin, but engineers have imagined many other ways for distributed ledger technology to streamline the world. Stock exchanges and big banks, for example, are looking at blockchain-type systems as trading settlement platforms.

Distributed ledger technologies have the potential to help governments to collect taxes, deliver benefits, issue passports, record land registries, assure the supply chain of goods, and generally ensure the integrity of government records and services.

Hunted for sport by the rich, then driven from large tracts of its natural habitat by agricultural and housing development, the giant panda deserves better than to be scrubbed from conservation's ledger books through false accounting.

I would not trade America's position in the world - our ledger, our debts and assets - for any country in the world. There isn't a country in the world even close to America.

Ledger in business often refers to detailed tracking of financial transactions over time.

Financial Tracking

There are various types of business ledgers, like sales and purchase ledgers, each for specific records.

Business ledgers are kept in a consistent format to ensure clarity and ease of use for audits.

Consistent Format

In funerary terms, a ledger is a stone marker, often horizontal, that commemorates the deceased.

Grave Marker

Different materials for grave ledgers, like marble or granite, carry varied durability and prestige.

Material Specifics

In construction, a ledger provides critical support and weight distribution for attached structures.

Structural Support

Ledgers in construction can be made of wood, steel, or other load-bearing materials.

Building Material

Blockchain ledgers create trustworthy records for transactions that are tough to tamper with.

Secure Transactions

In blockchain, the ledger is maintained collectively by a network, ensuring transparency and redundancy.

Shared Database

Once data is entered in a blockchain ledger, it cannot be altered, which helps prevent fraud.

Immutable Record

 a weird-looking figure placed at the beginning of the staff, which acts like a reference point, telling you that a particular line or space corresponds to a specific note on your instrument. If we want to play notes that aren't on the staff, we kind of cheat and draw extra little lines called ledger lines and place the notes on them.
