This course provides general overview of Blockchain technology and is specifically designed to answer the following questions:

What is Blockchain? (What exactly is it?)
Non-Technical Technology Overview (How does it work?)
Benefits of Blockchain (Why should anyone consider this?)
Use Cases (Where and for what apps is it appropriate?)
Adoption (Who is using it and for what?)
Implementation (How do I get started?)
Future of Blockchain (What is its future?)

1

  • What is Blockchain?

  • A record keeping system
    Trust
    Decentralization
    Trustless environment
2

  • Announcements
    Blocks
    Nodes
    Chaining
    Verification
    Consensus

  • Types of Blockchains

  • Public vs Private
    Open vs closed
    Smart Contracts
    Blockchain as History
    Tokens / Coins
    Gas
4

  • How is Blockchain different from what we have today?

  • Decentralized
    Peer-to-peer architecture
    Software vs Firmware

6

  • What does a Blockchain app look like?

  • DApp
    Resembles typical full stack web application
    Any internal state changes and all transactions are written to the blockchain
    Node.js
    IDE
    Public Blockchain visibility
    Private Blockchain solutions
    Oracles
7

  • How do I design a Blockchain app?

  • What does this solution need to let users do?
    Will the proposed solution reduce or remove the problems and pain points currently felt by users?
    What should this solution prevent users from doing?
    Do you need a solution ready for heavy use on day 1?
    Is your solution idea enhanced by the use of Blockchain? Does the use of Blockchain create a better end-user experience? If so, how?
    Has your business developed custom software solutions before?
    What level of support are you going to need?
    How big is the developer community?
    Does your vision of the future align with the project or platform's vision of the future?
    Does the platform aim to make new and significant contributions to the development space, or is it an efficiency / cost play?
    Should the solution be a public or private Blockchain?
    Should the solution be an open or closed Blockchain?
    Create a plan for contract updates and changes!
    Hybrid solutions
    Monetary exchanges?
8

  • How do I develop a Blockchain app?

  • AGILE approach pre-release
    Define guiding principles up front
    Software vs Firmware
    Announcements, not transactions!
    Classes, not contracts
    Link contracts to share functions
    Use calling contracts to keep contract address the same
    Hyperledger vs Ethereum
    CONSIDER No of Users * Avg No of Transactions (state changes) per User
    Should a Blockless solution be applied?
    Performance
    Security
    Anonymity
    Security
    Monolithic vs Modular
    Sandwich complexity model
