Transactions must be included in a block to be properly completed. When you send a transaction, it is broadcast to miners. Miners can then optionally include it in their next blocks. Miners will be more inclined to include your transaction if it has a higher transaction fee.

After reading all previous comments I can see that majority of people is now using term: 'blockchain'. I just think for now any  name will suffice whether it will be blockchain, Block Chain, block chain or Blockchain. We all know what is going on. But it would be helpful to use one standardized name in the future.

I wrote about this here:

Blockchain or Block Chain?
Bitcoiners spell Bitcoin’s transaction database two different ways, and it is likely that you will see both used: the blockchain (one word) or the block chain (two words). When discussing Bitcoin’s transaction database, they both mean the same thing. There isn’t an official term because there is no official Bitcoin dictionary. However, Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin, called it the block chain on multiple occasions. Also, the most popular Bitcoin wiki, bitcoin.it, calls it the block chain. For these reasons, block chain is considered to be more correct, however blockchain is often used colloquially.

I think calling it the "Blockchain" (proper noun) is the worst idea of all, because keeping it lowercase was one last stance against confusion with the company Undecided

I have alway written it as Blockchain.
I this when you see it as block chain written by people like Satoshi it could have just been the auto correct.

Satoshi Nakamoto always referred to it as such:
block chain

However, I see the term "blockchain" used a lot anyways. Do you think we should use Satoshi's terminology to prevent confusion with Blockchain.info, who will usually just refer to themselves as Blockchain? Or am I worried about nothing? Tongue
Pretty interesting find that Satoshi used an space between block and chain. Personally I say blockchain because im used to blockchain.info, or Blockchain if it's the begining of a sentence lol.

I only call the Bitcoin version "Blockchain" but call an altcoin a "blockchain" if it uses Proof-of-Work to build it. Satoshi's "block chain" still exists for those that also use his extra spaces between sentences.

Any significantly advanced cryptocurrency is indistinguishable from Ponzi Tulips.
