Blockchain Programming
Blockchain promises to become a dominant technology in financial and other transactions, whether cryptocurrencies thrive or die. This module will also give you a practical and theoretical knowledge of security issues with blockchains, where blockchains come from, how to analyse competing notions for blockchains (i.e. proof of stake vs proof of work and Bitcoin vs Ethereum), and what applications there are in the future.
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 basic knowledge of Python, and you’ll emerge on the other side with a grasp of cryptocurrencies better than 99% of your peers and with a working prototype you can build on.
