# Transparency via Blockchain Technology in Mistrust Sectors

“The blockchain does one thing: It replaces third-party trust with mathematical proof that something happened.” -Adam Draper

**Blockchain Technology** is undoubtedly one of the biggest innovations since the internet. In sectors where there is a lack of trust in institutions and the government, transactions are risky and difficult. Transactions in this sphere requires a mediator to facilitate the process.  People risk putting money in the bank, purchasing land and properties, transferring money and others. Blockchains are particularly useful in these cases to help provide trust and assurance to people whilst removing the intermediary.
Confidence and trust lay at the core of blockchain technology. It represents a system of trust between parties without the need for an intermediary involvement. This assurance creates seemingly endless possibilities for systems that utilizes blockchain.
