It also allows financial institutions to execute and verify transactions discretely without any human intervention. The electronic ledger of transactions is continuously maintained and verified in 'blocks' of records.
Combining Blockchain with IoT will definitely open the door to numerous advantages. At some point the combination will become a necessity. The decentralization capability of blockchain will clear the mounting data pumped by the centralized cloud storage platforms.
The volume of data will accumulate with the increasing connected device. Complementing each other, the blockchain technology will smooth the IoT powered connection structure between boundless devices, thus taking down the cost associated with the installation and maintenance of centralized data centres.
Blockchain will help to detect breakdown in any single knob, thus preventing the entire network from collapsing.
