Trustless Trust with ELLIPAL Cold Wallet

Trustless Trust is a term widely used to describe blockchain.

When something is described as “Trustless”, it doesn’t mean that it can’t be trusted, on the contrary, it screams security. It refers to a state when you don’t have to trust a particular party, which could be arbitrarily malicious. Instead, you trust a system or technology that is fully verifiable, traceable and isn’t owned by anyone.

For example, when you make a purchase online, you’ll have to trust the payment provider to correctly process your payments. On the other hand, you can also send your payment through the blockchain. In this case, many computers, through complex algorithms, help verify your transaction and store the confirmation history on the distributed ledger. The confirmation cannot be changed in anyways, making things as transparent as possible. These many computers that verify your transaction is known as a decentralized system and is not owned by any single entity. You do not need to trust anyone but the “technology” which is blockchain.
