**Learn the foundations of blockchain technology - its core concepts and algorithmic solutions across cryptography, peer-to-peer technology, and game theory.**
## Key Features
* Learn the core concepts and foundations of the blockchain and cryptocurrencies
* Understand the protocols and algorithms behind decentralized applications
* Master how to architect, build, and optimize blockchain applications
Blockchain technology is a combination of three popular concepts: cryptography, peer-to-peer networking, and game theory. This book is for anyone who wants to dive into blockchain from first principles and learn how decentralized applications and cryptocurrencies really work.
This book begins with an overview of blockchain technology, including key definitions, its purposes and characteristics, so you can assess the full potential of blockchain. All essential aspects of cryptography are then presented, as the backbone of blockchain. For readers who want to study the underlying algorithms of blockchain, you'll see Python implementations throughout.
You'll then learn how blockchain architecture can create decentralized applications. You'll see how blockchain achieves decentralization through peer-to-peer networking, and how a simple blockchain can be built in a P2P network. You'll learn how these elements can implement a cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin, and the wider applications of blockchain work through smart contracts. Blockchain optimization techniques, and blockchain security strategies are then presented. To complete this foundation, we consider blockchain applications in the financial and non-financial sectors, and also analyze the future of blockchain. A study of blockchain use cases includes supply chains, payment systems, crowdfunding, and DAOs, which rounds out your foundation in blockchain technology.
## What you will learn
* The core concepts and technical foundations of blockchain
* The algorithmic principles and solutions that make up blockchain and cryptocurrencies
* Blockchain cryptography explained in detail
* How to realize blockchain projects with hands-on Python code
* How to architect the blockchain and blockchain applications
* Decentralized application development with MultiChain, NEO, and Ethereum
* Optimizing and enhancing blockchain performance and security
* Classical blockchain use cases and how to implement them
This book is for anyone who wants to dive into blockchain technology from first principles and build a foundational knowledge of blockchain. Familiarity with Python will be helpful if you want to follow how the blockchain protocols are implemented. For readers who are blockchain application developers, most of the applications used in this book can be executed on any platform.

What You Will Learn * Cryptography and foundation for Blockchain * The role of cryptographic algorithms and decentralized computing in Blockchain * Understanding the Blockchain, transactions and decentralization in cryptocurrency * Architecting and implementing decentralized Blockchain application with few use cases * Security, enhancement and optimization of Blockchain application * Depth comparison of Blockchain application categories and how to choose a Blockchain use case In Detail Blockchain and cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin have hogged the headlines for a long time. But after the hype and the money, there is a lot of technical work to be done, and developers in particular need to understand in some depth what foundations they are actually building their project on. There is quite a bit of cryptography which we have to understand, and the general security in p2p networking demands of Blockchain, before diving into the first Blockchain project

All these concepts are explained by building simple applications from scratch. Cryptocurrencies and decentralized applications are extremely popular, but not well understood technically, which is why Koshik Raj is presenting two of the core chapters of the book dedicated to both topics. Koshik Raj then compares the Blockchain application categories, which helps to choose a blockchain use case, followed by a chapter on how to optimize and enhance a Blockchain application. Security is always a concern in decentralized application, which is why a dedicated chapter will try to address all the visible concerns in the blockchain technology space and help to build a secure blockchain app. Finally, Koshik Raj shows us how to branch out into new territory, and which rules and observations to take into account when doing your own Blockchain R&D

Learning the Algorithms and Protocols underlying Blockchain before Undertaking Blockchain Projects About This Book * Explains all networking and cryptography inherent in Blockchain by creating simple applications * Talks about the theory as well as the nuts and bolts of blockchain applications and cryptocurrencies * Leads to the frontiers of Blockchain extensions and new application areas Who This Book Is For Readers should be comfortable with general security terms, but no knowledge of cryptography or decentralized application is assumed. Although the book begins with all the basic concepts, a hands-on python programming, and theoretical networking knowledge, would speed up the reading process

Blockchain is a distributed database that enables permanent, transparent, and secure storage of data. The blockchain technology is the backbone of cryptocurrency and it is gaining popularity with people who work in the finance, government, and arts sectors. This book is an up-to-date, one-stop guide to this leading technology and its ..

Tokenomics is the economy of the new world of cryptocurrencies, blockchain, and ICOs. This book is a deep-dive into the economics and technology of tokens, and how this will lead to a new tokenized economy. This is a no-holds-barred, in-depth exploration of how it all works, and how you can participate in tokenizing the world.
