This book introduces all the technical features that make up
blockchain technology today. It starts with a thorough explanation
of all technological concepts necessary to understand any
discussions related to distributed ledgers and a short history of
earlier implementations. It then discusses in detail how the
Bitcoin network looks and what changes are coming in the near
future, together with a range of altcoins that were created on the
same base code. To get an even better idea, the book shortly
explores how Bitcoin might be forked before going into detail on
the Ethereum network and cryptocurrencies running on top of the
network, smart contracts, and more. The book introduces the
Hyperledger foundation and the tools offered to create private
blockchain solutions. For those willing, it investigates directed
acyclic graphs (DAGs) and several of its implementations, which
could solve several of the problems other blockchain networks are
still dealing with to this day. In Chapter 4, readers can find an
overview of blockchain networks that can be used to build solutions
of their own and the tools that can help them in the process.
