A beginner-friendly introduction to blockchain concepts
We embark on a new journey, where we explore the amazing technology of Blockchains
Let's focus on the lifeblood of Blockchains early: Transactions!
Let’s shift our focus to how a decentralized system can agree on a single truth: through consensus.
With this fourth article, we finish our brief pass through Bitcoin by looking at a couple missing key points.
Time to move on to the second big milestone in Blockchain’s history: Ethereum
Time to look at the machinery behind Ethereum’s storage!
A peek into the architecture that makes Smart Contracts possible in Ethereum
A more functional approach to Smart Contracts, exploring Solidity in further detail
Exploring the consensus mechanism behind Ethereum: Proof of Stake
A few last comments on important architectural aspects of Ethereum, rounding up the section on this Blockchain!
Before we jump into other Blockchain solutions, let’s explore the ecosystem built around Ethereum
Our journey now leads us into another big player in the Blockchain space: Solana
After looking at some nuances in Solana’s consensus, we now focus on its execution layer!
To mark our departure into new horizons, we take a short detour to look at some other cool ideas proposed by other Blockchains.
Moving on, we explore two modern Blockchains focused on parallel execution: Aptos and Sui
Not everything needs to be a Blockchain to qualify as a Distributed Ledger Technology — and today, we start looking at other structures!
Continuing with the radical ideas, we know turn our attention to replacing the Blockchain itself — with a DAG!
It’s finally time to uncover the secrets of a personal favorite: Polkadot
Next in our Polkadot exploration, we focus on its rich consensus mechanism — and its satellite features.
Accessing Polkadot’s validation resources can be done through a novel way to pay for Blockchain usage: Coretime.
To close off our chapter in Polkadot, we’ll have to talk about its latest development: JAM.
Moving on from Polkadot, we now cover the intersection between two cutting edge technologies: blockchain and zero knowledge proofs
How do we handle data in Blockchain? What sort of problems may we face?
To close things off, we look at a few important guidelines to upgrading an already-running Blockchain!
