Blockchain and Accounting: a reflection on their interrelationship
Abstract
In today's digital era, blockchain technology has emerged as a disruptive innovation with the potential to profoundly transform the field of accounting. This article explores the interrelationship between blockchain and accounting, analyzing how this technology can redefine traditional accounting processes. Initially conceived for cryptocurrencies, blockchain offers unique features such as decentralization, transparency, immutability, and security through advanced cryptography. These features not only promise to improve operational efficiency and audit accuracy but also reduce errors and fraud, which are crucial for the integrity of financial records. Additionally, the article explores the prospects of this emerging technology, considering both challenges and opportunities.
