Blockchain technology is transforming the banking industry by decentralizing data management, enhancing transaction security, and facilitating faster, cheaper cross-border transactions. It enables smart contracts, improving efficiency in banking processes and promotes financial inclusion for unbanked populations. Additionally, central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) built on blockchain can revolutionize monetary policy control and payment systems.

- 2. DECENTRALIZATION Traditional banking systems rely on centralized databases controlled by banks or financial institutions. In contrast, blockchain technology operates on a decentralized network of computers (nodes) where each node has a copy of the entire blockchain ledger. This decentralization reduces the risk of a single point of failure and enhances security.
- 3. TRANSPARENCY ANDSECURITY Blockchain utilizes cryptographic techniques to secure transactions and data. Each transaction is recorded in a block and linked to the previous block, forming a chain of blocks (hence the name "blockchain"). This immutable and transparent ledger ensures that transactions are secure and tamper- proof, reducing the risk of fraud and unauthorized activities.
- 4. FASTERANDCHEAPER TRANSACTIONS Blockchain enables faster and more cost- effective cross-border transactions compared to traditional banking systems. By eliminating intermediaries and streamlining processes, blockchain reduces transaction fees, settlement times, and paperwork, benefiting both customers and financial institutions.
- 5. SMARTCONTRACTS Smart contracts are self-executing contracts with the terms of the agreement directly written into code. These contracts automatically execute and enforce themselves when predefined conditions are met, eliminating the need for intermediaries and reducing the risk of disputes. In banking, smart contracts can automate various processes such as loan approvals, payments, and compliance, making transactions more efficient and reliable.
- 6. FINANCIALINCLUSION Blockchain technology has the potential to increase financial inclusion by providing access to banking services for unbanked and underbanked populations. Through blockchain-based solutions, individuals without access to traditional banking infrastructure can securely store, send, and receive money, access credit, and participate in economic activities.
- 7. IMPROVEDIDENTITY MANAGEMENT Identity theft and fraud are significant concerns in the banking industry. Blockchain offers solutions for secure and decentralized identity management, enabling individuals to maintain control over their personal information while providing institutions with a reliable way to verify identities. This can streamline customer onboarding processes and enhance security measures.
- 8. CENTRALBANKDIGITAL CURRENCY(CBDC) CBDC is a government-backed digital currency built on blockchain technology. CBDCs enhance payment system efficiency, reduce settlement times, and promote financial inclusion. They offer central banks greater control over monetary policy and have the potential to revolutionize cross- border payments. As central banks worldwide explore CBDCs, they mark a significant shift in money management within the banking system
