The Blockchain was originally designed for the Bitcoin cryptocurrency by a person or group of people known by the pseudonym, Satoshi Nakamoto. However, since then it has evolved into something much bigger. The term Blockchain refers to a list of records that constantly grow when more information is added to it. These blocks (chains of information) are linked and secured using cryptography. Blockchain is no longer just limited to Cryptocurrency, but instead it has also spread through other sectors such as database, finance, IoT, etc. It also has the potential to become so much more and ushering a new generation of blockchain technology. This is the perfect time to get hands-on with Blockchains and we have designed this course specifically to help you learn how! We have created an effective guide to help breakdown the Blockchain technology to help students become masters at Bitcoin and Blockchain technology. Using simple to understand concepts that help break the jargon, you will learn the core concepts of Blockchains, including how the Blockchain is changing the way people trade, important cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, how a distributed ledger works and why big banks and software companies are excited about this technology.
