relation to the concept of blockchain, the types of
blockchain which include details about the public

comparison between the public and the private

to make transactions securely. The focus is then
moved towards the introduction of public and

that in public blockchain the participants’ access,
read/write into the system whereas, in private
blockchain, the participants are restricted, and it
is not open for the public. There are number of
similarities and differences between the public

comparison is being a debating topic in both sides
of users and developers. This study tried to answer
for the question of best type of blockchain can be
used, either public or private depend on their
specific use. It found that both types of blockchains
