This handbook aims to serve as a one-stop, reliable source of
reference, with curations of survey and expository contributions on
the state-of-the-art in Blockchain technology. It covers a
comprehensive range of topics, providing the technical and
non-technical reader with fundamentals, applications, and deep
details on a variety of topics. The readership is expected to span
broadly from technologically-minded business professionals and
entrepreneurs, to students, instructors, novices and seasoned
researchers, in computer science, engineering, software
engineering, finance, and data science. Though Blockchain
technology is relatively young, its evolution as a field and a
practice is booming in growth and its importance to society had
never been more important than it is today. Blockchain solutions
enable a decentralization of a digital society where people can
contribute, collaborate, and transact without having to
second-guess the trust and transparency factors with many
geographical, financial, and political barriers removed. It is the
distributed ledger technology behind the success of Bitcoin,
Ethereum, and many emerging applications. The resource is divided
into 5 parts. Part 1 (Foundation) walks the reader through a
comprehensive set of essential concepts, protocols, and algorithms
that lay the foundation for Blockchain. Part 2 (Scalability)
focuses on the most pressing challenges of today's blockchain
networks in how to keep pace with real-world expectations. Part 3
(Trust and Security) provides detailed coverage on the issues of
trust, reputation, and security in Blockchain. Part 4
(Decentralized Finance) is devoted to a high-impact application of
Blockchain to finance, the sector that has most benefitted from
this technology. Part 5 (Application and Policy) includes several
cases where Blockchain applies to the real world.
