- Traditional apps rely on centralized databases, while blockchain apps run on decentralized ledgers.
- Data immutability means you can’t simply “edit” a record; you create a new transaction instead.
- Security and cryptographic hashing replace standard authentication systems.
- Blockchain development involves consensus mechanisms (Proof of Work, Proof of Stake) rarely seen in regular coding.
- Testing and deployment take place on testnets rather than traditional staging servers.
