# {{Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT)}}

## Overview

Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) is a decentralized method of recording, sharing, and synchronizing data across multiple locations without needing a central authority. Unlike traditional databases, which are centralized and managed by a single entity, DLT distributes data across various participants, or nodes, in a peer-to-peer network. This structure enhances data integrity, transparency, and security, as all participants share identical copies of the data and can independently verify its accuracy. DLT underpins blockchain and offers a foundation for developing trustless systems, where users interact without intermediaries.
