Can a blockchain be Centralised Will it be called as Blockchain if it is centralised

0 votes

I was reading a lot of articles on blockchain and almost everyone has some different understanding of blockchain. Is there any accepted definition of Blockchain by any community? In few articles I read:

  • Blockchains are Decentralised while DLTs are not.

  • All blockchains are DLT but not all DLTs are blockchain. It added "if transactions get stored in blocks then it is a blockchain else it is not"

From above statements-

Is Decentralisation a must for a Blockchain or is it just an Immutable Distributed Database? which can be centralised or decentralised?
