Blockchain Basics (training)

Colleagues, the “Blockchain Basics” course is part of Blockchain Specialization (University of Buffalo). Learners will be able to recognize foundational concepts of blockchain, and apply these program concepts on the blockchain. Develop high-demand skills in Ethereum, Cryptography, Blockchains, and Bitcoin. Learn about the decentralized peer-to-peer network, an immutable distributed ledger and the trust model that defines a blockchain. This course enables you to explain basic components of a blockchain (transaction, block, block header, and the chain) , its operations (verification, validation, and consensus model) underlying algorithms, and essentials of trust (hard fork and soft fork). Content includes the hashing and cryptography foundations indispensable to blockchain programming, which is the focus of two subsequent specialization courses, Smart Contracts and Decentralized Applications (Dapps). You will work on a virtual machine image, specifically created for this course, to build an Ethereum test chain and operate on the chain. This hands-on activity will help you understand the workings of a blockchain, its transactions, blocks and mining. Skill-based training modules include: 1) Blockchain Defined, 2) Ethereum Blockchain, 3) Algorithms and Techniques, and 4) Trust Essentials.
