Ethereum is making inroads into the enterprise space too. Microsoft was a pioneer among large technology firms in offering Ethereum-based blockchain as a service (BaaS) on its Azure cloud platform, which was announced as early as Nov 2015. Late last year, during the re:Invent event in November 2018, Amazon Web Services (AWS) unveiled a new service that allows its clients to build Ethereum-based blockchain applications on the cloud. Using the AWS blockchain template for Ethereum, you can choose to run smart contracts on a private Ethereum network within AWS, or join the public Ethereum network. Earlier this year, it was rumored that JP Morgan is rolling out the first US bank-backed cryptocurrency, a digital US dollar, to transform its payments business. The blockchain technology they are using is called Quorum, the private version of Ethereum. Additionally...

Overview of this book
Ethereum is a blockchain-based, decentralized computing platform that allows running smart contracts. This book provides a basic overview of how Ethereum works, its ecosystem, mining process, and the consensus mechanism. It also demonstrates a step-by-step approach for building decentralized applications.
This book begins with the very basics of Blockchain technology. Then it dives deep into the Ethereum architecture, framework and tools in its ecosystem. It also provides you an overview of ongoing research on Ethereum, for example, Layer 1 and 2 scaling solution, Stablecoin, ICO/STO/IEO, etc. Next, it explains Solidity language in detail, and provides step-by-step instructions for designing, developing, testing, deploying, and monitoring decentralized applications.
In addition, you’ll learn how to use Truffle, Remix, Infura, Metamask, and many other Ethereum technologies. It’ll also help you develop your own cryptocurrency by creating ERC20, and ERC721 smart contracts from scratch. Finally, we explain private blockchains, and you learn how to interact with smart contracts through wallets.
