  • Popular Crypto Libraries
  • This unit provides practical knowledge of the different resources available when doing projects in the blockchain ecosystem.
  • Decentralization and Consensus Algorithms
  • This unit covers the theory of decentralization, peer to peer networks, consensus algorithm types, and what happens when updating a blockchain network.
  • Mining and Mining Pools
  • This unit goes over the theory of the proof of work consensus algorithm, and gives students practical knowledge for implementation.
  • Cryptocurrencies Overview

  • This unit covers the different cryptocurrencies currently available.

  • Cryptocurrency Wallets

  • This unit gives a theoretical overview of cryptocurrency wallets and wallet software.

  • Wallets, APIs, and Libraries

  • In this unit students learn about wallet implementation and are able to use standards like bip39 or hierarchical deterministic wallets.

  • Creating an Ethereum Wallet Unit

  • This unit considers the practical functionality of a wallet, how to implement a new wallet, recover a mnemonic, check account balances, receive currency through a transaction model, and sign and send currency through the same model.

  • Blockchain Transactions

  • This unit covers theoretical aspects of transaction models in the cryptocurrency ecosystem and how these models are applied in relation to the two most popular global cryptocurrencies.

  • Cryptocurrency Exchanges

  • This unit reviews different cryptocurrency platforms, Bitcoin, cryptocurrency trade, decentralized platforms and trading APIs. Students develop the skills necessary to recognize different platforms, to trade and exchange cryptocurrencies.

  • Scaling Blockchain Network

  • This unit considers the problems with blockchain scalability in relation to current models of implementation.

  • Anonymous Transactions

  • This unit introduces anonymization models in cryptocurrencies, such as coinJoin, MimbleWimble, Zero-Knowledge Proofs, CryptoNote, and introduces Privacy Coins.
