Build your own Proof Of Stake Blockchain

🚀 Build your own Proof Of Stake Blockchain 🌐

Course Headline: From Transactions to Proof of Stake Consensus in your own P2P Network of Nodes in Python

Course Description:

Are you intrigued by the world of blockchain technology and its transformative potential? Dive into the realm of decentralized systems with our hands-on course that takes you from understanding the basics of blockchain transactions to implementing a robust Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism. This isn't just theory—it's a practical, immersive journey where you'll build your very own blockchain using Python, complete with a peer-to-peer network and REST API integration.

Why this course? Because we believe in learning by doing. With each click, you'll be closer to mastering the components that make up a blockchain, from the cryptographic foundations to the consensus algorithms that ensure secure transaction processing. If you're someone who prefers to learn through projects and real-world applications rather than endless reading, this course is tailored for you.

About your instructor: 🎓

Hello! I'm Lukas Hubl, a passionate computer scientist with a penchant for mobile computing and data science, currently splitting my time between Austria and Sweden. My journey into the world of coding began at just 15 years old, and since then, I've dedicated myself to constantly improving my technical skills across various domains, including machine learning, data science, and self-driving vehicles.

My fascination with blockchain technology led me to pursue a Master's thesis on Consensus Algorithms, further fueling my enthusiasm for this groundbreaking field. It's my belief that the key to blockchain's success lies in widespread understanding and acceptance—that's why I'm excited to share this course on Udemy and help propel the technology forward.

What you will learn and implement: 🔍

• Cryptographic Signatures: Learn the fundamentals of securing transactions with digital signatures.

  • RSA Public Key Cryptography
  • SHA-256 Hashes

• Transactions: Grasp the purpose and mechanics of transactions within blockchain systems.

  • Blocks: Understand how these are the core building blocks of a blockchain.
  • Blockchains: Uncover what happens behind the scenes in a distributed ledger.
  • P2P Network: Discover how nodes communicate and coordinate with each other.
  • REST API: Learn to utilize RESTful services to interact with your blockchain system.

• Python: Master the programming language essential for blockchain development.

  • P2P Peer Discovery: Implement methods for finding and connecting with network peers.
