This 3rd edition of Mastering Blockchain has 4 new chapters on hot topics such as blockchain consensus, Ethereum 2, and Enterprise blockchains. All chapters have been updated to include the latest information and new and advanced topics, such as zero-knowledge proofs, zk-SNARKS, Tezos, EOS, formal methods, and blockchain security. This book provides a holistic view of most areas of blockchain technology, along with hands-on exercises using Ethereum, Bitcoin, Quroum, and Hyperledger. You'll learn: The architecture and development of Ethereum 2.0 The mechanisms behind Bitcoin, Ethereum, and alternative cryptocurrencies The identification and examination of blockchain applications of blockchain beyond cryptocurrencies What are the key takeaways of the book? Whether you are a seasoned technologist, student, business executive or merely a blockchain enthusiast, it’s essential to focus on the underlying principles and core theoretical concepts such as distributed systems, consensus, cryptography and development using no helper tools in the start. This book is an excellent combination of both the breadth and depth of blockchain technology. As a mastering book, it can be used not only as a reference at work, but also very effectively as a textbook in a classroom or for self-learning. There is currently no other book that provides a comprehensive overview of blockchain technology with sufficient practical knowledge. My main goal is to create a remarkable combination of theory and practice. I aim to provide a comprehensive and in-depth reference of distributed ledger technology that not only serves the expert, but is also accessible for beginners. I especially focus on describing the core characteristics of blockchain, so that readers can establish a strong foundation on which to build further knowledge and expertise. I also envisage that with this approach, the book will remain useful in the future despite constant advancements.
