- Being public is not required. E.g. banks could form an internal block chain shared only with other banks.
- Blockchains are a database. An immutable and usually distributed database.

Unterstützt Bogen noch x86? Eventuell brauchst du da was spezielleres für sowas. Oder alte Verteilung und weit weg von Netzwerken halten
Well, Wikipedia describes it sufficiently vague: “a database is an organized collection of data”. But is a linked list on its own a database? I’d say the blockchain itself is the data structure but any software using it is most likely a database.
