What is Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies Training about?

The course discusses the fundamental principles of bitcoin, its mechanics (such as cryptographic hash functions, Bitcoin Script, privacy, and hash commitment schemes), and its roots in the Cypherpunk movement and Libertarian values. You'll learn about Bitcoin's practical uses, such as wallets and mining, as well as ways to destroy bitcoins, such as network assaults and malevolent mining tactics. We'll also go over Ethereum and how blockchain may be utilised outside of currency. 

What are the objectives of Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies Training ?

The basic properties and intent of centralised/decentralised currency and an in-depth understanding of Bitcoin from the ground up, including - Identity, Transactions, Record Keeping, and Consensus. 

The roots of Bitcoin in the Cypherpunk movement and Libertarian ideals, and the revolutionary significance of Bitcoin as opposed to some of its early predecessors. 

The mechanics behind Bitcoin include the Bitcoin network, cryptography and cryptographic hash functions, Bitcoin Script, privacy, and hash commitment schemes. 

Real-world aspects of Bitcoin, such as wallets, wallet mechanics, mining, transactions, and Bitcoin governance and the various ways one can interface with the Bitcoin network. 

How to destroy Bitcoin, including various network attacks. 

The properties behind the second largest blockchain platform, Ethereum, include the Ethereum Virtual Machine and the idea of Turing completeness, the critical protocol differences between Bitcoin and Ethereum, and the use cases of Ethereum. 

Who is Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies Training for?

This course is open to anyone with any background. Whether you plan your next career move as a blockchain developer, crypto trader, data analyst, researcher, or consultant or are just looking for an introduction to Bitcoin technology, this course will help you develop the critical skills needed to future-proof your career.

  • We begin with some fundamental concepts, such as the basic properties and intent of centralised/decentralised currency. We then build an in-depth understanding of Bitcoin from the ground up, divided into four stages: Identity, Transactions, Record Keeping, and Consensus.
  • This module delves into the origins and historical significance of Bitcoin. We investigate the roots of Bitcoin in the Cypherpunk movement and Libertarian ideals and examine the extreme importance of Bitcoin as opposed to some of its early predecessors. We then move on to exploring the history of the crypto space.
  • We examine the in-depth mechanics behind Bitcoin, such as the Bitcoin network, cryptography and cryptographic hash functions, Bitcoin Script, privacy, and hash commitment schemes.
  • We examine Bitcoin's most frequently used real-world aspects, such as wallet mechanics, mining, transactions, and Bitcoin governance. We explain how one can interface with the Bitcoin network, depending on the specific software they run.
  • We investigate how to destroy Bitcoin, including various network attacks. Specifically, we investigate vulnerabilities such as pool cannibalisation, double spending and forking attacks, network attacks, the Goldfinger attack, malicious mining profit strategies, and 51% attacks.
  • This module focuses on the properties behind the second-largest blockchain platform, Ethereum. We introduce the Ethereum Virtual Machine and the idea of Turing completeness and examine some key protocol differences between Bitcoin and Ethereum, such as the UTXO vs accounts model and functionality. We then investigate some of the use cases of Ethereum and conclude with an overview of smart contracts and building decentralised applications. Having spent the last modules primarily on cryptocurrencies, this module encourages students to think about blockchain use cases outside of cryptocurrency.
