Blockchain is an exciting and promising technology. You may have seen these new terms popping up frequently on social media and news channels: smart contracts, tokens (tokens), Web3, DeFi, DAO organize.
If you still don't quite understand what they mean, this free blockchain basics tutorial is for you (novices).
The following is a screenshot of the tutorial page:
This tutorial currently contains 7 articles:
Part 1: Birth of Bitcoin and Blockchain
Before Satoshi Nakamoto, several masters explored digital currency. Satoshi Nakamoto combined the exploration of his predecessors and the addition of proof of work to give birth to the first decentralized digital currency: Bitcoin. The first article will You will learn about the fundamentals and concepts of Bitcoin, including blocks, transactions, mining, and more
Part 2: How Bitcoin Works
The working principle of Bitcoin is introduced in detail, including decentralization, consensus mechanism, blockchain structure, etc. In the second part, we will learn how to initiate a transaction and how to package the transaction on the chain.
Part 3: Overall overview of blockchain technology
What is blockchain and why it is a revolutionary technology, Part 3 introduces the development of blockchain technology after Bitcoin, and after the introduction of smart contracts, the capabilities of blockchain have been greatly enhanced. Different teams are exploring the use of various consensus mechanisms to scale blockchain performance
Part 4: Different types of blockchains
Part 4 discusses different types of blockchains, including public chains, private chains, and consortium chains, and what their respective characteristics are.
Part 5: Different levels of blockchain
Since the blockchain itself is restricted by the impossible triangle, developers consider transferring more calculations off-chain, so the blockchain has a trend of layered development. Part 5 introduces Bitcoin's Lightning Network and Ethereum's Rollup.
Part 6: Web3 and Storage Protocol
Blockchain has given birth to a new form of application, which we call Web3 application, and the characteristic of Web3 application is that the user controls the ownership by himself.
The decentralized storage protocol is also an important part of Web3 applications.
Part 7: Blockchain Application Scenarios
What is the use of blockchain? Part 7 gives some extensive application scenarios, such as financial services such as cross-border payment/settlement, asset digitization, digital deposit certificate/anti-counterfeiting, NFT/digital artwork, games and other fields. It may have a subversive impact, and it has also given birth to a new form of cooperation such as a new DAO organization.
