Ethereum Projects for Beginners

Overview of this book

Ethereum enables the development of efficient, smart contracts that contain code. These smart contracts can interact with other smart contracts to make decisions, store data, and send Ether to others.Ethereum Projects for Beginners provides you with a clear introduction to creating cryptocurrencies, smart contracts, and decentralized applications. As you make your way through the book, you’ll get to grips with detailed step-by-step processes to build advanced Ethereum projects. Each project will teach you enough about Ethereum to be productive right away. You will learn how tokenization works, think in a decentralized way, and build blockchain-based distributed computing systems. Towards the end of the book, you will develop interesting Ethereum projects such as creating wallets and secure data sharing.By the end of this book, you will be able to tackle blockchain challenges by implementing end-to-end projects using the full power of the Ethereum blockchain.

Summary


This chapter took us on a journey where we learned how to handle large data files on a blockchain. Given that data sensitivity is a concept that is a necessity given the current developments in the World, we learned some simple methods to implement the security of a blockchain. We then learned about the process of verifying the identity of a real-world user on a blockchain with the help of third parties, and learned how to sign a document with the help of a blockchain. The next chapter will teach us the basic concepts and methods required to use Ethereum outside our browsers, and also how it is used as the backbone of the IoT. We will also take a quick glance at the physical components that make up a blockchain.
