  The Bitcoin ledger, also known as the blockchain, is updated and reconciled approximately every 10 minutes. This is done through a process called mining, where miners compete to solve complex mathematical problems and add new transactions to the ledger. Once a block of transactions is added, it becomes a permanent part of the blockchain. This decentralized and transparent system ensures the accuracy and security of the ledger.

  The Bitcoin ledger is updated and reconciled every time a new block is added to the blockchain. On average, this happens every 10 minutes. The process involves miners verifying and validating transactions, and once a block is added, it cannot be altered or tampered with. This frequent updating and reconciling of the ledger ensures the integrity and immutability of the Bitcoin network.

  The Bitcoin ledger is updated and reconciled every 10 minutes, thanks to the mining process. Miners compete to solve complex mathematical problems, and the first one to solve it successfully gets to add a new block of transactions to the ledger. This process not only updates the ledger but also ensures the security and decentralization of the Bitcoin network. So, you can rest assured that the ledger is constantly being updated and reconciled to maintain the accuracy and trustworthiness of the system.
