Trustless systems

Trustless systems are digital frameworks that enable secure, transparent transactions without relying on a central authority or intermediary. They use cryptography and decentralized ledger technologies, like blockchain, to verify and record activities automatically. This ensures that participants can trust the system's integrity and accuracy solely through its design and protocols, reducing the need for mutual trust or third-party validation. Essentially, trust is built into the system’s security features, allowing for reliable exchanges and data sharing even among strangers.
