おはようございます。KANOです。今回はこちらの記事から。
ブロックチェーン技術と仮想通貨の違いについて。
今更だけどふわっとしか知らない言葉だなw 仮想通貨は、一時期FXをやってた頃に少し調べたけどまあ手を出さなくてよかったです。
immense
意味 〈場所· 物などが〉（計り知れないほど） 広大な, 巨大な; 〈程度· 量などが〉膨大な, 計り知れない (enormous); (くだけて) すばらしい, すごい
“Blockchain” and “Cryptocurrency” are words that frequently pop up in conversations. Both blockchain and cryptocurrencies are innovative advancements in the immense world of technology. But what is a blockchain? What is a cryptocurrency? In brief, a blockchain is a form of distributed ledger technology used to store records of transactions. Cryptocurrency, on the other hand, is a form of currency that exists digitally and can be used to perform transactions.

この文章、後半は完全に読み飛ばしましたw 無理な領域には挑まなくていい。
ledger
意味 出納簿, 台帳.
Blockchain is a distributed ledger that can store data of any kind. But what makes blockchain different to a basic excel sheet is that blockchain is completely decentralised. This means copies of the blockchain exist in multiple different computers around the world instead of in one central location. These multiple different computers spread out across a worldwide network is called a node.

一応、もう10年以上前に初級シスアド取ったんですけどね…全く理解できないw（そりゃそうだ）
conjoin
意味 (かたく) (…が [を]) 結合する [させる], 団結する [させる]
Blocks containing various forms of data are conjoined together to form a chain of blocks, hence the name blockchain. Once a new block of data is added to the chain, the new version of the blockchain is updated throughout all the nodes on the network. A majority of the nodes must verify and confirm new transactions for them to be added to the blockchain. This is what makes a blockchain highly secure.

まあ、ふわっと「安全性の高い技術」って覚えとけばいいと思います！
fiat
意味 （法の権威に基づく） 命令, 法令.
A cryptocurrency is a form of currency that exists digitally or in a virtual environment. Just like regular currency, which is referred to as fiat, cryptocurrencies can be exchanged for goods and services. However, the severe fluctuations in prices have hindered an extensive worldwide adoption of cryptocurrencies.

manipulation
意味 (非難して) （情報· 資料などの） 改ざん, ごまかし
What makes cryptocurrencies so special is that they are based on Blockchain networks, meaning they are not governed or authorised by one central figure such as the government. Instead, it is authorised by multiple nodes on the blockchain network, ensuring that cryptocurrencies are immune to manipulation.

distinguish
意味 〈人が〉〈複数の人· 物· 事〉を識別する
Another difference between blockchain and cryptocurrency is their transparency. As blockchain is distributed amongst a network, it is highly transparent as multiple nodes can view and verify transactions. On the other hand, cryptocurrencies offer anonymity as you cannot distinguish the owner of a cryptocurrency transaction.
