Description

You'll learn the ins and outs of blockchain like only a blockchain programmer knows. Using only a few Python libraries, we'll build a cryptocurrency from the ground up. Even if you have very little programming experience we can help you through it!

You'll learn about digital signatures, hashing and proof-of-work mining. We'll design and build a scheme for decentralized consensus including communicating over TCP/IP sockets. Bring your basic knowledge of Python, and you'll emerge on the other side with a grasp of cryptocurrencies better than 99% of your peers and with a working prototype you can build on.

You'll make smarter cryptocurrency investment decisions, launch a career in blockchain programming or just be the smartest crypto-junkie in the room. Clear your weekend, click the enroll button and let's go!
