Many people in the industry predict that the blockchain will disrupt the ways we interact with technology on the same way the Internet did in the early 2000s.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>The blockchain is the main technology behind Bitcoin, Ethereum, and the other prominent cryptocurrencies that we read about in the news today.&nbsp;<\/strong>By leveraging the blockchain, cryptocurrencies create a system of &ldquo;trustless&rdquo;ness. This cuts the need for middle men like banks and traders in economic systems.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Do you want to enter this young market, and become a highly sought-after&nbsp;blockchain engineer?&nbsp;<\/strong>The industry is starving for people who understand, and even better, can build blockchains. The supply is low, but the demand is high. So having a blockchain project under your belt will open doors and jobs for you.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>For engineers, coders, and software developers, the best way to truly understand the revolutionary technologies of blockchain and cryptocurrencies, is to build a blockchain and cryptocurrency yourself.&nbsp;<\/strong>Therefore, this course will take you through implementing a blockchain and cryptocurrency - discovering the underlying techniques and concepts.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>The course is designed into sections that introduce the main concepts of the blockchain one-by-one. By the end of the course, you will have a respectable blockchain project in your repertoire.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Some of the main course highlights:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>\r\n<p>Build a Blockchain in the object-oriented programming style.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li>\r\n<p>Generate hashes for blocks in the chain.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li>\r\n<p>Unit Test Components of the Blockchain.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li>\r\n<p>Create an API around the Blockchain.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li>\r\n<p>Create a real-time connected peer-to-peer server.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li>\r\n<p>Implement a proof-of-work algorithm.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li>\r\n<p>Sign Transactions with cryptography and digital signature.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li>\r\n<p>Create a Transaction Pool for a real-time list of incoming data.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<li>\r\n<p>Include transactions in core blocks of the chain.<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>We&rsquo;ll use NodeJS to implement this project. Don&rsquo;t worry if you&rsquo;re not familiar with JavaScript. This course explains the purpose behind every line and keyword. So, while JS experience will help, it&rsquo;s not an absolute requirement.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Written summaries supplement each tutorial.<\/strong>&nbsp;That way, you can move along at your own pace, either watching the more thorough filmed tutorial, or reading the&nbsp;summary.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Ultimately, knowledge of the Blockchain will set you up for success in the future, as an engineer in a blockchain-dominated world. So what are you waiting for? Let&rsquo;s get started building a blockchain!<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"styles--audience--2xuzW\" data-purpose=\"target-audience\">\r\n<h2 class=\"ud-heading-xl styles--audience__title--1qhlO\">Who this course is for:<\/h2>\r\n<ul class=\"styles--audience__list--16EaN\">\r\n<li>The Blockchain engineers of the future.<\/li>\r\n<li>Anyone wanting to understand how cryptocurrencies are built.<\/li>\r\n<li>Cryptocurrency holders, so that way they can understand the underlying system.<\/li>\r\n<li>Anyone who wants to build a huge project in NodeJS, and it to their repertoire.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/div>"}
