What you'll learn:
- Build a cryptocoin from scratch using Python
- Digitally sign messages and verify signatures
- Design and build a tamper-proof blockchain to store any kind of data
- Secure your blockchain with a proof-of-work requirement
- Open sockets to communicate transactions and block with peers
- Build a wallet and miner for your cryptocoin
You'll learn theins and outs of blockchain like only a blockchain programmer knows. Using only a fewPython libraries, we'll build a cryptocurrency from the ground up. Even if you have very little programming experience we can help you through it!
You'll learn about digital signatures, hashing and proof-of-work mining. We'll design and build a scheme for decentralized consensus including communicating over TCP/IP sockets. Bring your basicknowledge of Python, and you'll emerge on the other side with agrasp of cryptocurrencies better than 99% of your peersand with aworking prototype you can build on.
You'll make smarter cryptocurrencyinvestment decisions, launch a career in blockchain programming or justbe the smartest crypto-junkie in the room. Clear your weekend, click the enroll button and let's go!
