Become a Blockchain Expert for Less Than $20Set to go mainstream later this year, blockchain is a must-know tool.

Once presumed to be the domain of ostentatious Wall Streeters and tech bros, theMIT Technology Reviewpredicts 2019 will be the year the blockchain finally goes mainstream. The publication notes that the technology could soon revamp the realms of banking, healthcare, supply management, and even entertainment, making it "more useful" than ever before, and so popular that it becomes "boring."

Initially introduced some 11 years ago as a log for Bitcoin transactions, the blockchain is a decentralized and distributed digital ledger. It's structured just like a literal chain of blocks with the "block" being digital assets and the "chain" being a public database. What makes this system so unique is a trio of signature features that are intrinsic to every blockchain ever made: They're compiled and verified in real time, cannot be retrospectively edited, and don't rely on a central, overseeing authority.

It's exciting to imagine this technology's game-changing potential across various industries—and for a limited time, it's affordable to learn how to use it.
