Book Description
Blockchain is an emerging technology that has the potential to significantly enhance the safety of transactions across a variety of transaction networks, including banking, supply chain, and others. By the year 2030, it is anticipated that Blockchain technology will have contributed $3.1 trillion in new company value. It serves as the foundation for a dynamic distributed ledger, which is something that can be used to cut down on the amount of time spent documenting transactions between parties, eliminate the expenses that are associated with intermediaries, and lower the danger of fraud and tampering. This book’s objective is to provide a comprehensive examination of the many ways in which blockchain technology might be adapted to, and used for practical business applications. Blockchain technology is gaining traction in all industries that do high-volume transactions daily. This book covers all there is to know about blockchain technology and may be used by computer science postgraduate students, researchers, and practitioners at both the fundamental and intermediate levels. It demonstrates the quick progress that has been accomplished in the current business model by employing the principles of blockchain technology. This book examines both the theoretical underpinnings of Blockchain technology as well as its practical implementations. Readers will get an understanding of the trust model, distributed ledger, and decentralized peer-to-peer network that are characteristics of Blockchain technology. They will also get familiar with the fundamental elements of Blockchain technology, including transactions, blocks, block headers, and chains; Blockchain's operations, including hashing, verification, validation, and consensus models; Blockchain's underlying algorithms; and the fundamentals of trust, including hard forks and soft forks. The principles of Smart Contracts, Proof of Work, and Proof of Stack will also be presented, along with the introduction of public and private Blockchain networks that are analogous to Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Book Description
Blockchain is an emerging technology that can radically improve transactions security at banking, supply chain, and other transaction networks. It’s estimated that Blockchain will generate $3.1 trillion in new business value by 2030. Essentially, it provides the basis for a dynamic distributed ledger that can be applied to save time when recording transactions between parties, remove costs associated with intermediaries, and reduce risks of fraud and tampering. This book explores the fundamentals and applications of Blockchain technology. Readers will learn about the decentralized peer-to-peer network, distributed ledger, and the trust model that defines Blockchain technology. They will also be introduced to the basic components of Blockchain (transaction, block, block header, and the chain), its operations (hashing, verification, validation, and consensus model), underlying algorithms, and essentials of trust (hard fork and soft fork). Private and public Blockchain networks similar to Bitcoin and Ethereum will be introduced, as will concepts of Smart Contracts, Proof of Work and Proof of Stack, and cryptocurrency including Facebook’s Libra will be elucidated. Also, the book will address the relationship between Blockchain technology, Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Cybersecurity, Digital Transformation and Quantum Computing.Readers will understand the inner workings and applications of this disruptive technology and its potential impact on all aspects of the business world and society.
